Clickable Image

[extrakun]

Hi all,

I have looked through the tutorials and the API, but couldn't find a way to make an image clickable...(for instance, there's no MouseClicked event for StaticImage)

How do I go about making a clickable image? Can I derive a class from PushButton but hides its borders (is that possible in the first place)

Many thanks in advance!

Hi

The MouseClicked event is inherited by all controls from the Window base class; so it should actually work for you.

If not things to check are to make sure the SingleClickTimeout is set to something acceptable in the CEGUI::System class, and that you are injecting mouse button down and up events properly.

Hi CE,

Thanks for the reply, I will check it out. But just a clarification...for a pushbutton, when you subscribe an event to it, you use PushButton::EventClicked...there's no such thing for StaticImage...

Hi

The PushButton::EventClicked is a specialised event introduced by the PushButton class, however, Window::EventMouseClicked is available for all of the widget and window classes...

For example:

Code: Select all

myStaticImage->subscribeEvent( Window::EventMouseClick, &myHandler );


Would work regardless of the actual widget class of 'myStaticImage'.
