Target Window Buff Area Issue

I didnt really want to start a new thread but I am sure there will be some that might be able to use this info. My coding is way rusty as its been since 2007 that I have posted a piece that I have updated. Anyways....this new target window has 2 screen items and buff window screen item is used as a piece of the main window. I would like to keep the ancoring so that I dont have to manually enter the loc's of 80+ icons. However I just want the buff icons to show and not the background.

Code:


<Screen item="Target_BuffWindow">
		<ScreenID>BuffWindow</ScreenID>
		<RelativePosition>true</RelativePosition>
		<AutoStretch>true</AutoStretch>
		<LeftAnchorOffset>100</LeftAnchorOffset>
		<TopAnchorOffset>60</TopAnchorOffset>
		<RightAnchorOffset>100</RightAnchorOffset>
		<BottomAnchorOffset>0</BottomAnchorOffset>
		<BottomAnchorToTop>false</BottomAnchorToTop>
		<RightAnchorToLeft>false</RightAnchorToLeft>
		<Style_VScroll>false</Style_VScroll>
		<Style_HScroll>false</Style_HScroll>
		<Style_Transparent>false</Style_Transparent>
		<TooltipReference>Buffs on your target will show here</TooltipReference>
		<DrawTemplate>WDT_Inner</DrawTemplate>
		<Style_Titlebar>false</Style_Titlebar>
		<Style_Closebox>false</Style_Closebox>
		<Style_Minimizebox>false</Style_Minimizebox>
		<Style_Border>false</Style_Border>
		<Style_Sizable>false</Style_Sizable>
		
	</Screen>

I know this controls the style of the box but when I delete it or change it I get a crash

<DrawTemplate>WDT_Inner</DrawTemplate>

So how do I remove the template but keep the ancoring? My con colors are also not working but thats the next thing to fix

In the attached image you can see the what I am explaining also the result of moving a buff to the main screen pieces area.

The template references a single pixel that has an alpha value of 0 so that rectangle testing (for moving and resizing) still works. You could drop the pixel in it's own 1x1 image, but if you use images that have a pixel at alpha 0 then just use that instead so eq doesn't waste texture memory with a single pixel texture. Another idea is to set Style_Transparent to true since that disables the draw template. __________________ "Computers are like Air Conditioners, they stop working properly when you open Windows."
