How to subscribing to events using the layout approach?

[extrakun]

Hi all,

I have been trying to follow the 'Main Menu' code snippet. I have managed to load a layout, but am having problem subscribing the widget to events. The way the code snippet is parsed kind of unclear too. Where can I find additional information?

Many thanks in advance!

Note: I manage to get the hard-coded method (calling the subscribe method of each widget) to work, and have confirmed that inputs are injected to CEGUI. I am using Ogre 1.2

You can look at the samples included within the SDK: cegui_mk2\Samples I recommend Demo7.

Hi, I assume by the SDK, you mean the one downloadable from this site, not the one which comes with Ogre 1.2?

The one from the Cegui download will be the most recent one. The one from Ogre is v0.4, unless you download from the CVS. But regardless, Demo 7 from pretty much any source is still worth a look as it seems to be the most complete/comprehensive and it is the one that I used to turn to the most for reference information.

You can have a look at Widget Galore for a basic how-to for most widgets (excludes menu). There are no events but it covers how to specify a value and how to retrieve it, which is at the core of the functionality of widgets.
