CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

I have searched and read some topics about loading a image to a staticImage object, especially this one:
http://www.cegui.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopi ... +jpg+image


I followed this page and implemented my function like this:

CEGUI::ImagesetManager::getSingleton().createImageset("mj.imageset");
guiWnd= WindowManager::getSingleton().getWindow("logo");
guiWnd->setImage("mjset", "ogretext");

"logo" is the name of a StaticImage object, defined as:
<Window Type="TaharezLook/StaticImage" Name="logo">
<Property Name="FrameEnabled" Value="False" />
<Property Name="BackgroundEnabled" Value="False" />
<Property Name="UnifiedPosition" Value="{{0,0},{0,0}}" />
<Property Name="UnifiedSize" Value="{{1,0},{1,0}}" />
<Property Name="Alpha" Value="0.8" />
<Property Name="InheritsAlpha" Value="False" />
<Property Name="NormalImage" Value="set:mjset image:ogretext" />
</Window>

After compiling, my codeblocks shows this message:
error: 'class CEGUI::Window' has no member named 'setImage'


I looked up the CEGUI reference, and found that setImage is not a member function of StaticImage class, In fact I can not even find a StaticImage class, I don't know how to fix it.

I also want to load a image to a button, if it is possible? and how? thanks

Hi and welcome

StaticImage and StaticText are mapped to the DefaultWindow, and can only be accessed by using properties, except for the common methods. To set your image, use:



For your second question, you also need to call properties, for example:



There's also HoverImage, PushedImage and DisabledImage.

For a full property reference, please see this thread: http://www.cegui.org.uk/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2555

HTH.

Is there any way to directly load the image to the StaticImage, without using an imageset? I need to display a picture in a window that changes depending on the character selected, so I will have several portraits to display in the same widget.

Hi,

All images displayed by CEGUI currently have to be part of an imageset.

CE.

thank you, scriptkid and eddie, it works
