CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

I am actively working this issue, too. We have a major product release that is being held up by this problem. As Sinbad has noted, this problem is specific to CEGUI. The Ogre examples do not exhibit this behavior so something about mixing CEGUI and Ogre together makes the cocktail unstable. Here's a...

What is the proper way to unsubscribe for an event after I have subscribed?

I'd like to disconnect the mechanism given a certain circumstance but I can't find a clean way to do that.

Thanks,
Chris

<slapping forehead>DOH!

That's exactly what it was. Geeesh....

Thanks very much,
Chris

Ok, I'm going a little nutty here.... I want to use RenderableImage instead of Image for some things but am missing something because I can't seem to get the image to appear on screen. In my constructor of the containing object I have: Imageset* iset = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().getImageset( Im...

Those changes would be useful to me, actually. I'm dragging an item out of a list box, a StaticImage, but I'll bet I can make it work as long as the Window class has a way to report if it is drag aware. This will also give me an excuse to get back to the HEAD. I'd like to get your new timer stuff. I...

Yeah, that's about how I've done it so far: When I start a drag in the first window I captureInput and also fire an event EventDragStarted. Then, when the mouse button comes up I releaseInput and fire a EventDragEnded event. The problem comes in when I want to be able to detect what window I'm over ...

I'm implementing some dragging code that lets the user drag something from one window to other places on the screen. However, since each window sets it's own image when the mouse is over it, when I change the mouse to be my drag image it is always replaced when I move around on the screen. I don't w...

Perfect! That's the nugget I needed! As always, thanks!



cheers,

Hi, guys- I'm using a 16x9 image for a fixed backdrop for a full screen window. I set it by: Imageset* iset = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().getImageset( "BackgroundLook" ); d_clientbrush.setImage( &iset->getImage( "Backdrop" ) ); d_clientbrush.setPosition( Point( 0, 0 ) ); ...

Hey, spannerman-

How are you triggering the pop-ups based off a delay? In other words, how are you counting time passing with nothing happening in the system?

Thanks for the hint,
Chris

Yeah this is a bit of a pain. The crash is due the the object being deleted while the event system is still iterating over the subscribed listeners. Presently, maintaining a window "dead list" is about the only way to go. I've given this a little thought and I might integrate this approac...

1. Make an imageset based off your texture like so: Imageset* pImageSet = ImagesetManager::getSingleton().createImageset( strYourImageSetName, pYourTexture ); 2. Define an image in your image set like so: pImageSet-&gt;defineImage( strNameOfNewImage, Point( 0.0f, 0.0f ...

Great, thanks spannerman.

I appreciate it.
Chris

We will be releasing the source code when the editor is done, but if you are interested I can show you the code of how I implemented it if you like. If it's not too much trouble..... :) I'm am gearing up to be doing a lot of coding and I'm trying to setup things so that it is as easy (and bug-free)...

I'm with you on that. Especially the "I go crazy with them in my code" part. I use the heck out of asserts. They can be a real time saver. Early and often is the best time to catch bugs, especialy subtle ones. The best bug in the world is the one that explodes like a nuclear bomb so you ca...
