CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

Just wanted to state that I have got the same problems (for quite a while), but it only happens on ATI cards (tested with 9200, 9700 Pro and Mobility 9700), the nVidia ones I tested with (5900XT, 6600GT) work fine, so I also think that this is a driver issue.

First things first: This GUI system rocks *hard*! I am a little bit concerned about memory usage though. In my app, creating a StaticText element chews up ~1MB :shock: If I initialize the system with 5 fonts defined within the gui scheme file, memory usage goes from ~16MB before GUI initialization t...

I hope this won't be considered as thread hijacking, but I thought it would be better than starting a new thread (since my question plays well with the subject line :) ) Just out of curiousity: What were the reasons to implement the event system anew and going away from boost::signal/bind? Are there...

Yes, only the move. Events generated from button presses/clicks/releases work ok.

Maybe (Probably) the mistake is on my side (again), but I cannot get any meaningful information from this bit mask. I tried it like that: if(event.sysKeys & CEGUI::Shift) { // do sth. because shift was down when the mouse event was fired } but it does not work (the if statement...

Sometimes life can be so easy

Thanks again, now it works.

Hello again, This is one of those "render-to-texture" questions... :roll: I have got a single Ogre overlay covering the whole screen (a panel) which simply displays a texture I rendered the scene into. For the final output on the screen, I want CEGUI elements to render on top of this quad ...

Possibly your best bet is to use the Listbox for displaying the chat history That's what I am doing and it works perfect!. Nice thing is that you can set every text line (i.e. listbox entry) to have a different text color, very handy for a console system (errors display red, warnings orange, infos ...

Once again: Thank you very much.

Personally I just think that anti-aliasing only looks good when the font is rendered in a reasonable size. Small fonts (say for a console system/command shell) look better unantialiased, imho.

Great news: Thank you very much!

True, OpenGL is fine. Sorry, I could have checked that myself

Anyway, as a temporary fix I cannot switch to GL because stencil shadows only work in DX9 for me (in GL they seem to be not manifold, so I get the well-know artefacts, although my artist tells me that they are closed).

Does it also do it on the leftmost edge?

No, left, right and bottom edges are fine.

Okay, I'll check it out and see what's going on.

Thanks.

I've noticed another slight problem (it can also be a problem related to Ogre): GUI elements do not render over the very first (topmost) line of the frame buffer. I noticed it when I tried to add "cinematic bars" at the top and the bottom of the screen for cutscenes. The topmost line of th...

Hello everybody,

is it possible to automatically apply an outline to rendered font glyphs? If so, how?
Also, (how) can I tell freetype/CEGUI that I want certain fonts not to be antialiased?

Any help greatly appreciated.

The fix indeed fixed the issue in the little demo I supplied, thanks for this. Unfortunately, in my 'real' application, the problem was still there and here is why: I use vertex/fragment programs. So without thinking about it too much I added the following two lines to the OgreRenderer::initRenderSt...
