id like also to be a mini window, like in some things, just like in the
right hand corner, that isn't the 3d web but like a small window with a
border target=aw_3dcorner or something.


also about alexthemartians post, maybe That'd be good to have a transparent
section, so you could do health bars, or magic bars, or stuff like that but
still have the browser, so you could have it overlayed on the screen, and
that would allow really nice effects, imagine being in lets say AWRPG, and
being able to se your hp, or being in mutation and seeing how many potions
you have, by clicking on the thing you could use it because it is a web
window,

4.0 would (they would have us believe) include browser GUI plugins.. so
HUD's would be on (which is good, im gonna get designing mine and shoving it
into C++! - Course.. when the system comes out and is completly diff ill be
screwed but what the hell!)

Uh, ok, you do that. Go make up some non-existent code outlines and make
some bad plug-in for it... But, why would you whine about having to
reprogram it? I mean, there's no specs for a plug-in yet, so you'd just be
creating a fake one just for fun. You cant say that it was for AW, because
AW doesn't support them. So you're not reprogramming your AW plug-in, you'd
be porting your crap plug-in in AW.

egh.. well if its GUI changes.. its gonna obviously have the standard
functions.. so lines and text o.0 meaning I can just rip it from my old AW
hud that used a semi-transparant window...

are you talking about the transparency like 90% 50%.. or do you mean the
ones where parts of the window is completly see thu, as in you can even
click thru it.. and the 2nd one dont work in 95 i think and the 1st only
works in 2k+ ... no on all my posts about this topic im talking about that
2nd thing

[View Quote] Transparencies are only compatible with 2K or XP. Pseudo transparencies
are another story.

[View Quote] You were a little lax on the actual differentiation. You can control
which part of the window you want to be transparent with the programming
API I'd assume, even in 2k. Windows 9x has no facility for transparency
other than some insanly ingenuis programming ideas.
