CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

Yes i am using tinyxml. I looked and looked at the xml and never noticed the missing '<'. Needed a second set of eyes to spot the obvious. I have got the basics of the chat box working pretty well - you press enter in the edit box and the text appears in listbox above. Also have it scrolling the lis...

I have the following XML layout .. <?xml version="1.0" ?> <GUILayout> <Window Type="TaharezLook/FrameWindow" Name="/Chat"> <Property Name="Position" Value="x:0.0 y:0.0" /> <Property Name="Size" Value="w:0.25 h:0.25" /> <Property N...

Edit box testing : (EditBox attached to TabControl attached to DefaultWindow) Left click within edit box - it gets input. Left click outside all gui components - on landscape in my case - It does not clear input capture of edit box. Where this causes me a problem is that I am also processing my own ...

Is there a way/method to use that would allow users to right click on a gui component and change some of it's properties (for example alpha setting).

If you have a tabbed control with multiple tabs - can you undock a tab off by itself ?

I think it would be useful to put on the wiki a guide to building common game components. For example I am currently working towards a tabbed chat component which has an input box at the bottom and chat history above. I just wanted to check nobody else is half way through documenting something simil...

I have tried using Ogre CVS HEAD from last weekend + current Cegui CVS HEAD. I built CEGUI (with xerces disabled) using the dependancies included on this site. Copied the resulting cegui dlls to debug/release in Ogre samples/common/bin. Copied the generated libs to debug/release in ogre dependancies...

Thanks for the info.
'Falagard' sounds pretty useful. In the meantime I will try to get up to speed on using the Gui with Ogre.

I have a general question for which I have searched (briefly) through and not found a direct answer to..

If I want to create my own gui custom skin - can I do that entirely by creating/modifying xml files and creating a new tga image or will I also need to add some C++ code to support it.

I am working on a mmorpg which we have based on the NEL game engine (http://www.nevrax.org). I liked the look of your GUI and was hoping you could provide some feedback on some questions I had. I have a few questions regarding your GUI design decisions as we have created a first cut of our GUI and a...
