CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

im working on making a simple approach to using CELayout Editor to create single "interfaces" which are defined by seperate class files, so that i can create a mainMenu form and have a class to handle it all, etc. however, since i use a default window as a container to hold all objects in that specific GUI system (some of which are on forms, some of which are not), i have ran into some trouble hiding everything on the default window. apparently, calling hide on the default window is not hiding all the other objects on it. is there a way around this?

I'll have to test that, since what you describe (hiding the parent window), should indeed hide all attached windows

I'll get back to you in the morning about this.

thanks

i know that it SHOULD hide all the windows, and it very well might be something retarded i have done, but i cant seem to figure it out. I would be glad share the code/xml file causing the problem if it would be any help at all. Also, i can supply a club to beat me with if i caused a lot of work for nothing and it was just some retarded user error

Once i get a website up and running, and it doesnt look like a 4 year old kid with forks in his eyes made it, ill put up some sort of tutorial on mixing SDL + OPENGL, Raknet, and such with CEGUI.

I did a very quick test and all was well. So...

Can we see the layout file and a code snippet that's supposed to do the hiding for you.

Thanks,
