Auto-open custom UI windows
 

Hello all,

I have searched through the forums and found information regarding configuring windows to automatically open when you load the game. I have attempted to make it work, however I have not been able to get it to work right. Here is what I have tried:

<include> statement for the custom window in the eq2ui.xml file

OnHide="show_window=(MainHUD.YourWindowHere) show_window=(MainHUD.YourWindowHere)" in clock, startbutton, and character windows (tried all 3 seperately)

This causes custom window to load before UI is loaded, so it appears on the character select screen. Then, when the UI loads, it loads 2 of the custom windows, the second is not movable (it won't respond to any clicks, left or right)

I tried playing around with different combinations of the above settings, but the only auto-load I could get was when it loads 2 windows, any other variation did not auto-load the window.

By the way, I am attempting to auto-load Kosmos' perf panel (old v1.0, because I like that one best).

Anyway, if anyone can help out I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks in advance,

Grav

Put the include in the

eq2ui_mainhud.xml

then put the show window stuff in the startbutton xml

OnShow="show_window=(MainHUD.YourWindow) show_window=(MainHUD.YourWindow)"

Remember it is case sensitive! and works by its window name not the file name.

Thank you Laffs!

I'll try it tonight!
