The tooltip, picfile, alias and popup can be enclosed in quotes if necessary. To clear an item, can use "" empty quotes.

 

Note: Modifying some of the default mIRC buttons, such as Connect, Notify, etc. may not always work since they are managed by mIRC. They can however be deleted.

 

Examples

 

/toolbar -a Cow "Moo moo!" cow.bmp "/echo I am cow, hear my moo" @cow

 

The above command creates a button called "Cow" with the tooltip "Moo moo!" using the button picture cow.bmp. If the button is clicked, it will run the command "/echo I am cow, hear my moo", and if right-clicked, it will popup the menu @cow.

 

/toolbar -m 1 Cow

 

The above command will move the button named "Cow" to position 1 in the toolbar.

 

/toolbar -p Cow goat.bmp

 

The above command will change the picture on the button named "Cow" to "goat.bmp"

 

/toolbar -is 2 cowsep

 

The above command will insert a separator named "cowsep" (every button and separator you add to the toolbar must have a name) at position 2.
