CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

I'll be happy to start it soon, once I've acquired a critical mass of knowledge about the code base.

I think that an invaluable addition to the wiki would be a page or series of pages detailing the look and main uses of some of the basic widget types (or window types, I'm not clear on the terminology). For instance, I've looked at the documentation for Menubar and some other items, and it takes a g...

Ah, yes. That led me to the right answer. Thank you!

I had tried EventKeyDown, but of course that works for more than one key. Had to figure out how to cast the EventArgs in order to access the scancode of the key pressed.

0.7.5 is the version I'm using. And in that case... what event would I need to subscribe to? I've searched through the Events for a number of classes, including Window and System, but found nothing that would let me subscribe to a Escape Key Pressed event. Sadly, the prophetic part of my brain wasn'...

Do all the System::injectKeyBlah or injectMouseBlah functions fire an event?

If so, what event? I cannot seem to locate any event to subscribe to for having the Escape key pressed down. It is being injected with:

CEGUI::System::getSingleton().injectKeyDown(CEGUI::Key::Escape);

I assume you are getting the 'no such file exists?' error? The simplest way to add an include path (that I know of) is to: 1. go to Projects -> Properties 2. Under Configuration Properties, select C/C++ 3. Under General, look at the right-side pane. The very top option should be 'additional include ...

Ah hah, yes. I remember seeing you mention the bootstrap system to others in my forum searches. And thank you for doing it again! I had to be reminded, and now at least I've got a scrap of code that will compile. I'd suggest updating the tutorials linked to in the beginner section and from the wiki ...

Thanks for looking at this! You lost me a bit at the end there: Lastly, be sure to add the following dlls in the destination folder (example given for Debug target, using Debug CEGUI libraries): What do you mean by 'destination folder?' Is that the folder that the program is compiled to? I have plac...

Hello all, and I'm sorry for what will be an extremely basic post. I've been programming for years, but until just lately I've never tried to incorporate code created by anyone else, and I'm stuck on square one. I cannot figure out how to use the CEGUI package and incorporate it into my own code. I ...
