CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

hey lindquist, thanks for the reply. That looks like it would solve the problem, however, that would alter ALL of the buttons rather than a select few. To work around this I am assuming I would have to define a look and feel of a special "L_button" which would be the same as the regular bu...

Hey pompei2, thanks for the reply. I know about the StaticText alignment and I often use the HorzFormatting to center the text from the default left alignment. Unfortunately, push button doesn't seem to have anything like this. The offset X looks like it has promise, but doesn't seem to work as adve...

I figured out that the window would have to be static cast CEGUI::Window* t = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton().createWindow("WindowsLook/FrameWindow", "testframe"); *((CEGUI::FrameWindow*)t) = *((CEGUI::FrameWindow*)getWindow(&q...

Hello, I want to duplicate a window. I tried: CEGUI::Window* t = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton().createWindow("WindowsLook/FrameWindow", "testframe"); (*t) = (*(getWindow("report_win"))); but got compiler error, "...

Hey guys, I am trying to left align the text on a bunch of buttons. I found the function setTextXOffset() but it doesn't seem to do squat. Also when I call this function is it supposed to kill the centered alignment and make it left aligned with the offset or is the offset taken from the center? Why...

Hey guys, I wrote some code to let me do what I want. I am putting it up so that someone else can use it if they need to or they can make it better. class ButtonContainerClass { public: void addBtn(CEGUI::String); // Add a button to the container void nextBtn(); // Move the sele...

Hey guys, I am thinking about making a game with Ogre that uses the Xbox360 controller. I was wondering if there was a way that I could integrate the controllers d-pad (or the arrow buttons on the computer's keyboard) with CEGUI. I only have like three menus so I was thinking that I could just have ...

hey, this is just a shot in the dark, but I was thinking that if the layout editor can't read more than 127 of your font, maybe you should try using the getWindow()->setText("you message here"); from within code. Maybe this will work.

Hope this helps.

I just wanted to add something. If you are using WindowsLook, you need to make sure that the ListboxSelectionBrush exists in the imageset file. Then you need to make sure that the square it corresponds to in the targa file has a white alpha. The actual color channel can just be left blank because yo...

Hey all, I am trying to see if the mouse is hovering over a certain window. I will be checking if it is hovering over that window while at the same time not hovering over another specific window (to sense overlap). For some reason it seems like isHit() never returns true for me. Am I using it incorr...

I was just wondering if there was going to be any native support in CEGUI for rotating images, anytime soon?

alright, I don't know the correct way to acheive a custom image on the slider thumb, but what I did as a work around was place a static image on top of the thumb. The image has the same size and position as the thumb. Then in code, I setEnabled(false) on the image window and subscribe the thumb to a...

Hey guys, I am using windows look and I am trying to make a slider in my game that has a different picture on it than the regular slider. Since the slider Thumb inherits from push button class I thought that the following code would work. CEGUI::Thumb *thumb = (CEGUI::Thumb*)wmgr.getWindow&#...

Well I got the WindowsLookSkin.scheme to finally work, but I still don't have a clue how to scale the darn images down! :evil: I went into the looknfeel file, but I don't really get what this means: <UnifiedDim scale="1" type="BottomEdge" /> Does anyone have any advice!?!?!?!

I guess what I am going to do is use a SliderThumb widget. It has the functionality that I am looking for, unfortunately I do not understand how to change its image from within code. I figured because it is inherited from PushButton I could use the same code for changing the normal image, but that d...
