Currently working on a simple one that:
- Can be used without having to log into TS
- Doesn't require TS client at all
- click to launch TS client when you click on a chat room

Timeframe 2 weeks if possible

I have been working on a Vista gadget for about 8 hours now. I am able to get the files made and the scripting figured out half way with the help of tsviewer code generator. I am not sure if this is my problem or not. Here is what I am getting.

The gadget is popping up and allowing me to add it to the sidebar, but when I add the gadget it only shows a tiny little box and it appears to be the top left corner of the dispaly. The scrolling up and down seems to work. The box is so small that you cannot even read the channels or see the channels for that matter. The refresh button is the main thing I see when adding the gadget to the sidebar. The refresh seems to be functioning by the way.

I guess my main problem is sizing. I have it set for 50x150

Any help on finalizing this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks to boomsling's inspiration, i've researched Vista sidebar gadgets, including some i use, and even his...
After taking and modifying pieces of code from some gadgets, then re-writing it afterwards, i have made a gadget similar to boomsling's, but mine will show the server's status and stuff, by basicly showing a generated signature! :)
If you wana see it, here it is: http://matt.home.digital.net/publish/ts2status_sidebar_gadget.zip
Thanks for lookin! :)

and so nobody leeches it... I've got it copyrighted here:

Boomsling I like your Gadget but is there anyway to make it so that it doesn't refresh so often? ATM it refreshes about every 9 - 10 seconds I would like to set that to maybe 45 but I didn't see anywhere in the files to edit for that.

Any Ideas?



Any help much appreciated, Cheers!

Adding a settings page is beyond the scope of what I know how to do.

Maybe someone who is a real programmer could pick this up and run with it?

The gadget was based on the service provided by tsviewer.com and I have been politely asked by Ginger from tsviewer to remove the 'auto refresh' as it its a bad thing for his bandwidth bills!

Without the auto refresh it pretty much renders the gadget useless.

It is no longer available for download.

Sorry
