CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

Hi, just wanted to thank everyone who works on cegui. Pirate Princess is a semi-casual word game based adventure, just finished and on sale. This is the first project I've made using cegui. http://www.moonpod.com/English/about_pirateprincess.php (more info, demo and video here) http://www.moonpod.co...

Thanks for that. Seems to work fine, here is what I did in case anyone else is looking. Add 3 images to my gui sheet: 1. a background for the loading bar 2. a little slice of loading bar that can be stretched horizontally 3. a front for the loading that has a slot alpha cut into it I need them drawn...

The default progress bar has a background and then the bar overlaid on top. I'd like the background to become the foreground, with some nicely shaped alpha cut out slot and then the bar underneath would appear to fill this up. I thought this was a simple switcheroo in the looknfeel. Now, within a &q...

Ah, of course. Unless you use custom tooltips then every widget is using the same default tooltip object. So if I grab the first button I see as the app starts and set the font there then it's changed on every menu screen in the entire app.

thanks...

But that would require you to access it at run time and the tooltips are only created "as needed" by the system so how would you do that? Normally to set a font you go: getWindow("my win name")->setFont("blah") but you can't do that with a tooltip can you? It doesn't ha...

I'd like to set the tool tip font, but I can't see how that would be done. The problem is some of the tool tips are quite long - a good sentence or so and the font they are using is too big. You can set the main font of buttons, etc as a widget property in the layout, but I don't think there is a pr...

For now just add it to the layout file in a text editor. Once it actually exists the editor loads the layout without error and can still save/reload. Something like this: <Window Type="TaharezLook/MultiColumnList" Name="winProfile/frmMain/mclPlayers" > <Property Name="Font&q...

Odd one here, is it just my setup or... 1. create a new layout. 2. make a static text widget 3. set the text to "%" 4. click away then click on the widget again Program: C:\Projects\CELayoutEditor\bin\debug\CELayoutEditor_d.exe File: f:\sp\vctools\crt_bld\self_x86\crt\src\output.c Line: 23...

Oops, I missed the error in the cegui log - shame on me


I put "HorizFree" and it should be "HorzFree", with that change it works fine.

Hi, I started putting a horizontal slider together and it looks fine and works correctly when I mouse click on the track ( the thumb moves towards the mouse - left and right). However, when I click on the thumb itself and try to drag, it doesn't move. I saw a thread about needing to write your own c...

Just noticed a problem. If you select a static text box and then try to resize by clicking on one of the handles then the font colour selector opens up and you cannot deselect the resizing handle. p.s. I have to comment out those COMPILE_ macros to get it to compile? It's been that way for a while t...

Thanks for the feedback, here's version2 of "TiledFrameWindow" taking your suggestions on board. I left the auto_titlebar and auto_closebutton in as they seem to be a requirement, but they aren't used. Seems to work ok :) What do you think? <!-- ********************************************...

Windows are defined in the look and feel consisting of 4 corner images (TL,TR,BR,BL), 4 edge images (T,R,B,L) and a background image (Bg). As shown here about half way down: http://www.cegui.org.uk/wiki/index.php/The_Beginners_Guide_to_Falagard_skinning_-_Part_II This is all specified in a frame com...

I'm using a read only MEB to display a few hundred words of text. When this GUI displays I grab a number of paragraphs of text and pump them into a string seperated by CR/LF. So I end up with 3 or 4 line separated paragraphs of text in my MEB. When I first display it I get a vertical scroll bar (ok)...

I'm also having problems with tabcontrols, I've got a working cegui/ogre app and used all the basic controls and buttons ok, but when I add a tabcontrol in the layouteditor and run my app I got the following errors: 11/03/2008 00:21:14 (Error) Exception: WindowFactoryManager::getFactory - A ...
