CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

Good to know it is not necessary, thanks
Though it might become so if I add more at that location, of course.

I am using LayoutContainers for layout in a widget of mine. Here is the XML of the widget: <GUILayout version="4" > <Window type="DefaultWindow" name="Console_LuaTab" > <Property name="Area" value="{{0,0},{0,0},{1,0},{1,0}}" /> <Property name="T...

Yes, I am already using LayoutContainers (in CEED), thanks

Well, at least I know now that I'll have to use a workaround to design single tabs in CEGUI - design them as single layouts, then add at runtime.
Small inconvenience, but it could be worse.

Hello again :) I am just trying to design a widget which is supposed to use a TabControl. In CEED, I can add a TabControl based widget. But as soon as I am adding something (let's say a DefaultWindow with a Vanilla/Button in it) to that TabControl in CEED, it does not display (though it does seem to...

Huh. I am back at my linux machine, did the whole build again and now everything works fine.
Maybe I installed a missing lib (freeimage or expat, maybe?) in the meantime which resolved the problem.

Still, I think the above problem remains a valid one.

And for the vast majority, it will be an error. The vast majority is always what should count considering ease of use. Who'd use their own XML parser, really? It is such a minor thing. Image codec is more likely, but still... The best solution IMO would be a CMake flag that can be checked in the GUI...

I agree. It will be a few days until I can look into this again, but even if this is not the issue I am facing, this should be an error as it makes the lib practically unusable.

I'm currently on another machine and can't check it.
But I do not remember setting those manually.

I remember that on Windows they were set automatically, does it behave differently on linux?

Yes, I can see now that I made one typo of replacing linux with Windows. Fixed

No. I try to build CEED on Linux for Linux

The make "-jX" command is just a command to allow parallel building. -j4, for example will use 4 threads for that. Makes building a lot faster. And using only "-j" will allow the building to use as many threads as it wants (not sure what is the limit there), which can really slow...

Hey there, I built CEGUI successfully in linux and can use it in my program. Now I am trying to get CEED to work, on linux too. I followed the guide ( http://cegui.org.uk/wiki/CEED ) to build CEGUI for that purpose and did not get any errors. CEED also does start, but as soon as I want to do somethi...

I will research this, my guess is it has something to do with the compositors, but I am not sure... At least this time, I was correct. Note: Do not set the texture of a material in a compositor listener each single frame. I am not sure why this lead to the problem, though. Now I'll correct my wiki ...

Anyways, try the following: use the CEGUI stuff and after drawing always call clear() on the CEGUITextureTarget. What do you see? The result is exactly the same as in the second screenshot. Wait that makes no sense. Your GUI is still drawn? Yes. Anyway... Progress! I think our assumption about alph...

The result is exactly the same as in the second screenshot.

Btw... I am using a DefaultWindow now as the root. Did not change anything about the result.
