Is it possible to associate or attach a miniwindow to another miniwindow?

For example,
miniwindow "main"
inside it I have a windows for HP, MP, and Mob Health

When I move miniwindow "main", I would like the other windows to move with it.


Currently, I was able to anchor the creation of the HP, MP, and Mob Health windows to "main". But when I move "main", the bars are left. I have to restart the world so the bars are redrawn in the new position of "main".

Thanks!

Why not draw the bars in "main"?

Miniwindows can't be attached to each other. You can however turn a miniwindow into an image, so you could conceivably have the bars as hidden windows, and then convert them into images and load them into the main window, if that would help.

Modularity! I totally dig it.

Don't forget we added a "friends" parameter to movewindow, so I think this could be done using that.

I'd forgotten about that. Sounds like one of Fiendish's ideas.

Does that actually move the "friend" window?
