That was the windows look.

No title bar...
"X" doesn't work in Taharez....
Scroll bars don't update with the layout that had the "anti-alias" and "resize font" checkbox. (forgot layout name)
Crash when I enter text input into right window "VanillaWindows.layout"; just passing all event pointers via event irrlicht injection system to CEGUI.

Error when loading "VanillaWindows.layout":

... windows look.

No title bar...

This happens when there is no font loaded / no default font set.

"X" doesn't work in Taharez....

Doesn't work in what way? If you mean it doesn't do anything, such as close the window, this is by design. You must subscribe a handler to the event in order for action to be taken.

Scroll bars don't update with the layout that had the "anti-alias" and "resize font" checkbox. (forgot layout name)

Not sure what this means.

Crash when I enter text input into right window "VanillaWindows.layout";

What is this layout? This is not part of the CEGUI distribution, how am I supposed to know what is wrong based on some layout name I've never heard of?

For some crazy reason, I thought loading the scheme was supposed to do that.

OK.

Not sure what this means.

When I move a scrollbar, it doesn't update its position until I resize the window a few times.

It's part of the SDK...

Please come around to IRC in about 9 or so hours...

Edit: Another major part is the error with the border. What could be causing this?

[CrazyEddie]

This happens when there is no font loaded / no default font set.

For some crazy reason, I thought loading the scheme was supposed to do that.

The scheme can do it, though traditionally we did not have fonts specified in the example schemes. TaharezLook had the font added between 0.5.0 and 0.6.0 - during an extended period of absence for me.

When I move a scrollbar, it doesn't update its position until I resize the window a few times.

I still don't know where you mean for this. As far as I can tell the layouts and samples all seem to work fine. There were a couple of issues with the FontDemo, though these were fixed for the 0.7.1 release.

Yes, sorry about that. The error in the log you posted - and having looked at the layout - relates to an imageset that does not exist, I'm not sure what that's all about, even though I wrote the file. As far as crashing when inputting text, this layout is used in the FalagardDemo1 sample, and it's working fine for me. Again you have just said 'crash' which is meaningless. Without a proper description of the issue perhaps with a backtrace or with other suitable debugging information there is virtually no way to know why it does not work correctly.

Please come around to IRC in about 9 or so hours...

I don't do requests, sorry. The help I give is given willingly and freely, though the intention is not that my time be monopolised by a single individual day after day after day. It kind of knocks the arse out of it for me when this happens - so I go off and do more interesting things instead

Edit: Another major part is the error with the border. What could be causing this?

You'll have to describe what is happening there. It looks like a clipping issue from the pictures, but I can't be certain how that happens. What interaction causes this?

I still don't know where you mean for this. As far as I can tell the layouts and samples all seem to work fine. There were a couple of issues with the FontDemo, though these were fixed for the 0.7.1 release.

For instance: In "Demo8.layout", the left window has sliders. When I MOVE the sliders with my mouse, there is no update of the slider position!! The slider position ONLY updates when I resize its window, and ONLY when I resize it up (when I INCREASE the size of the window), and ONLY when I resize it to a bigger size than it had ever been. Just resizing down and then up to the same size does not update the window.

As far as crashing when inputting text, this layout is used in the FalagardDemo1 sample, and it's working fine for me. Again you have just said 'crash' which is meaningless. Without a proper description of the issue perhaps with a backtrace or with other suitable debugging information there is virtually no way to know why it does not work correctly.

Okay, it no longer crashes. Could be related to a very specific schema/font/imageset configuration, not sure. However, THE TEXT DOES NOT APPEAR. The only way to make it appear is to increase the size of the screen as I mentioned previously.

Edit: Another major part is the error with the border. What could be causing this?

CE.

Again, this is the same as the other two issues above. When I resize (DOWN) the window, the border does not redraw around the smaller window. It only redraws when I resize the window up again. (to a size bigger than I had before at any point)

Edit: I have a feeling that the cause of all this might be a faulty code in "CEGUIIrrlichtEventPusher.h", but I am not sure. What is the command that updates the window information?

The tone of my request was intentionally made so you wouldn't think I am trying to force you to appear in IRC. I thought you wanted to better your GUI. I know it's not fun, but that (ie: bugs, version issues) is reality. I am sure that 99/100 people who try to use this GUI and cannot because of some issue or other just simply forget about even trying to use it instead of asking for help like I am. Furthermore, you know I am making a wrapper to expand usage base of your GUI. Don't you want more people to use your GUI?

That said, I look forward to your glorious return to IRC.

[CrazyEddie]

The fact that all of the issues appear related to the screen or windows not being refreshed properly seems to indicate that there is something you're doing that is not correct. For example, the Demo8.layout as used in Demo8 functions perfectly within that demo when using the IrrlichtRenderer, as do all the other demos.

I have a feeling that the cause of all this might be a faulty code in "CEGUIIrrlichtEventPusher.h", but I am not sure. What is the command that updates the window information?

You seem to be under some illusion that you're the only person to have ever used this code; you're not Again, the fact the demo apps all use this code successfully indicates that it does - amazingly - actually work.

:| The tone of my request was intentionally made so you wouldn't think I am trying to force you to appear in IRC.

The intention doesn't particularly worry me one way or another I'll just carry on as I please

I thought you wanted to better your GUI.

How does solving your usage issues better CEGUI? Because this is what they are - your usage issues. While CEGUI is certainly not bug free, indeed there have been bugs found that had been lurking for many years - but the key point is that on the whole, for most common uses, CEGUI is pretty solid. It may not seem that way for you, because you're having so many issues, but that is the case for a majority of users. Do you think the Torchlight guys had all these issues when they used CEGUI? (I dunno, maybe they did )

I know it's not fun, but that's reality.

No. It's not. If this were my job, then it would be reality. This is not my job, and yes, for me it is, actually, supposed to be 'fun' - that's the only reason I do it, for my own amusement. When it's not fun, I don't bother with it.

I am sure that 99/100 people who try to use this GUI and cannot because of some issue or other just simply forget about even trying to use it instead of asking for help like I am.

If this is the case (and I'm neither agreeing nor disagreeing), do you think this would worry me at all? Do you think this would keep me awake at night? Do you think a loss of 99% of potential uses costs me anything at all? I can tell you - for all cases - it does not. If people wish to use CEGUI and find it useful, I'm happy for them, and I'm happy to help them as and were I can. If people look and decide that either CEGUI is not for them, or that CEGUI is 'crap' or whatever their opinion may be, then this is fine - it's their choice and it's their opinion.

Don't you want more people to use your GUI?

To be quite frank, I don't particularly care one way or the other. As far as people asking for help on here, and on IRC, it depends on the attitude of those people. Over the years there have been many people come and go, and in certain cases - a tiny minority, for sure - we all would have been better off if those people had decided to be one of the 99% from above.

I have never said that CEGUI was easy to use. Some people find it easy, some people find it hard - to me this speaks volumes. CEGUI is definitely not a beginners library. CEGUI is definitely not aimed at people without experience in C++. It's not that I would wish to exclude those people, but offering help for CEGUI is not the same as trying to teach people how to use their computer, or how to set up and use their chosen programming environment, or how to program C++, or how to program in general.

Now, above I mention the 'attitude' of people. You might think that's slightly ironic given that certain people might consider my own attitude to be poor. Well, all I will say about that is, again, I don't really give a hoot! People can take me as they find me, and if that's not to their liking; if that's not good enough, well, to be honest, it's not my problem. I don't owe any of you guys anything - nothing what so ever. You can take this code, the project, whatever, and use it or not, but don't expect anything in addition from me.

ONLY updates when I resize its window, and ONLY when I resize it up (when I INCREASE the size of the window), and ONLY when I resize it to a bigger size than it had ever been. Just resizing down and then up to the same size does not update the window.

This is related to the underlying texture target surface. Basically what you describe - making a window bigger than it had been at any point previously - is when that underlying texture gets re-allocated due to the existing one not being big enough. That's what's happening, but I can't explain why it only updates when that happens

In CEGUIIrrlichtRenderTarget.cpp, under the function "void IrrlichtTextureTarget::declareRenderSize(const Size& sz)":

Code: Select all

    const bool realloc =
                !d_texture ||
                static_cast<float>(d_texture->getSize().Width) < sz.d_width ||
                static_cast<float>(d_texture->getSize().Height) < sz.d_height;


If I set this to:

Code: Select all

    const bool realloc =
                !d_texture ||
                static_cast<float>(d_texture->getSize().Width) != sz.d_width ||
                static_cast<float>(d_texture->getSize().Height) != sz.d_height;


... then the border will adjust. However, that's the only thing that will. The scrollbar and text issue is still there.

Thus, IrrlichtTextureTarget::declareRenderSize must be calling some other function to update the window look. I'm shooting in the dark here. What is supposed to be called and where when an event occurs (so that the window updates)?

[agamemnus]

CE.

I found a simple fix, but not a solution per se: switch my opengl render mode to Directx 9. Did you try using Irrlicht with directX9 or with opengl mode?

[CrazyEddie]

Hmm. I develop on Linux, so generally the GL driver in Irrlicht is used. I'll test out the D3D9 driver later on today

CE.

[agamemnus]

DirectX, for me, works fine. Could be related to the driver I am using for my ATIX600XT graphics card (even though the driver new), or Irrlicht's support for that graphics card. I also noticed I didn't have anti-alias working with opengl+irrlicht and (Irrlicht) mipmaps did not work either. (but they do with directx 8 and almost work with 9... very odd)

Speaking of directx8, this library doesn't support it, is that right? I get blank text for my fonts when I switch to DX8...

[CrazyEddie]

I didn't get to test Irrlicht with D3D on my systems yet, but I'll definitely do it tomorrow (for nVidia). I will additionally test on an ATI card - don't remember the chipset off the top of my head - over the coming weekend.

Speaking of directx8, this library doesn't support it, is that right? I get blank text for my fonts when I switch to DX8...

Yes. Support for D3D8 was dropped as from version 0.7.0.

CE.

[CrazyEddie]

With regards to D3D8 - I mean we dropped support for it directly, not via Irrlicht - whether that works or not is down to how well the abstraction is done, amongst other things. I have no interest in that at all though, and it's not something I intend to test - I have no machine with a DX 8.1 SDK and that's fine by me

This morning I have tested the Irrlicht renderer using the D3D(9) driver - including on an ATI HD 4600 (not sure which version of the drivers, ones from last year some time) - but did not find any issues with it not updating.

To answer an earlier point: Generally when something happens - such as a button highlighting or some other rendering change - this will cause the Window to call it's own Window::invalidate function which basically means that on the next rendering pass, the Window's cached geometry will be updated. In addition to this the rendering surface chain will get invalidated so that on the next rendering pass the cached geometry will be (re)drawn to whichever surface and 'cache' surfaces rendered back to their owners.

The call to declareRenderSize is part of the above process when a window is resized.

CE.

[agamemnus]

Again, I have no CEGUI trouble with DirectX. Can you check with OPENGL under Windows?

It could be a thorny combo opengl/driver issue, I suspect. I have an ATIX600XT.

[CrazyEddie]

This is the regular configuration used for testing. I can confirm there are no issues.

It could be a thorny combo opengl/driver issue, I suspect. I have an ATIX600XT.

Yeah, it's not beyond the realms of possibility. Did you / have you / can you try alternate drivers, or on alternate hardware?
