Question about skin/UI.

[Bonehead]

I'm making my own UI atm, and tbh it's not that hard. But still, i got a question for you who know more about this then me:

I'm remaking my info window (miniinfo_window.xml). I'd like to add a button that is linked with info window (special info). You userly press shift+i to get this window on screen.

I have not yet seen any other UI with this feature. But since i've seen this in housing by the market explorer, i figured to should be able to pull off. When searching on an item and your hits are shown, you can select your item (left click) and then press this 'info' button to get special details, just like you do when pressing shift+i (or whatever button you have bounded it to).

So my question is simple. Is this doable, or is it not.
And if it is - how?

Interresting question... i don't know the answer myself, but perhaps you could ask it on the vn boards. http://vnboards.ign.com/Trials_of_Atlantis:__User_Interface_Board/b22592/

There are some people on those boards with very good knowledge of this.

you should be able to, part of my UI has /face /stick and run on so i think a get around would be to bind shift + I to a single key then have a UI button that presses that key, if you see what i mean. only way i can think of doing it.

If i wanted to bind it to another key without help of shift, i didn't have to add the 'info' key, would i?

Not doable atm, since the merchant window is hardcoded (no xml available)

Are you sure? Does the following work? (Change X & Y co-ords etc..)
I am at work and can't test

<ButtonDef>
<ControlId></ControlId>
<Position>
<X>120</X>
<Y>63</Y>
</Position>
<Alignment>
<TopLeft>true</TopLeft>
</Alignment>
<TemplateName>button_transparent</TemplateName>
<Label>INFO</Label>
<onClickEvent>MerchantQuickDesc</onClickEvent>
</ButtonDef>

MerchantQuickDesc displays the mini_info window, not the delved information of the selected item afaik
