This means that their behaviour is hard coded into the window they live in. That generally holds true for any element in any window; no eqtype, it will only work in its original window.

Basically, i want to take the Basic - PlayerWindow content and place it above the spell icons. As well, can i use the Spell EQType's to load or unload spells or will i specifically need the Spell Window for that?

Elements that you click on to make an action happen, will only work in the window they originally exist in. These items typically don't have an EQType. Examples of these are suspend/revive/unsuspend merc, disc buttons. That being said, there are exceptions. Group HP gauges have an eqtype, and can be shown in another window. However, the right click to set the group role will only function within the group window. Bag and worn items icons in the Inventory Window are buttons that make actions happen, however they have an EQType, and can be duplicated in other windows. So, to answer your question, most (if not all) of the stuff in the player window can move. The spell eqtypes are just labels that display the text version of the spell assigned to a slot. However, activating the spell either by clicking or right clicking requires the button, which has no eqtype. It has to remain within the CastSpellWnd

Just to let you know the EQType dosen't need to be a number, it just needs to have an EQType. The Merc suspend button does work in a different window (sort of), just check out my moddified selection window as an example.

This will be a fun venture as im going to a prescribed size for the spell gems instead of the resizable version defaulted.
