(solved) PropertyLink Help

[zarroba]

Hi,
I'm making a widget that has a child that is a button. But the image on the button may change according to the state of the widget. So I tried to use PropertyLink to Link a property named NormalImage to the NormalImage property of the button widget. The thing is that NormalImage is a Property and a State in the button widget and therefore crashes the program on start with error:

Code: Select all

An error occurred at line nr. 5993 while parsing XML file 'TaharezLook.looknfeel'.  Additional information: Element 'PropertyDefinition' is not valid for content model: '((PropertyDefinition,PropertyLinkDefinition,Property,NamedArea,Child,ImagerySection),StateImagery)'

The code I'm using to link is:

Code: Select all

<PropertyLinkDefinition name="NormalImage" widget="__expand_button__" targetProperty="NormalImage" initialValue="" />

Is there anything I can do to make this link work without changing the button widget?

Hi,

It should work, from the error you posted it seems like it's something as simple as the order of definition of the PropertyLink - check that the LookNFeel has things defined in the order specified in the error...

1 - PropertyDefinition Elements
2 - PropertyLink Elements
3 - Property Elements
etc...

In other words make sure your PropertyLink line appears after the PropertyDefinition lines.
