Window being cut off

Hi all
Another strange problem I encountered: When I set a window position using this code:
Code: Select all
aboutDialog->setPosition( CEGUI::UVector2( CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ), CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ) ) );
my window is cut off at certain positions when I move it around. When commenting out the above line, the window works properly again.
I have taken the above line from the "window tutorial" so i assume its righ. Is there a difference when using the Ogre renderer or so?
Here's a link to the picture showing the cut off window:

Addendum: This only happens when I set the position programmatically. When set in the layout (xml) the 'cutting off' does not happen...

It seems to be an issue with scissor rects or something not getting updated correctly. Is this with 0.7.2? Is there a parent window for 'aboutDialog' or is aboutDialog set as the root for this? If there is a parent window, what type is it?
It's clearly a bug, I'll try and look into it soon. Which render system are you using with Ogre?

Hi CE
- Yes, I'm using 0.7.2
- The render system is Direct3D9
- Im using a MenuBar and a FrameThingie for the AboutDialog (actually based on the Static Text sample)
Here's the setup code:
Code: Select all
guiRenderer = &CEGUI::OgreRenderer::bootstrapSystem();
CEGUI::Imageset::setDefaultResourceGroup("Imagesets");
CEGUI::Font::setDefaultResourceGroup("Fonts");
CEGUI::Scheme::setDefaultResourceGroup("Schemes");
CEGUI::WidgetLookManager::setDefaultResourceGroup("LookNFeel");
CEGUI::WindowManager::setDefaultResourceGroup("Layouts");
CEGUI::SchemeManager::getSingleton().create("VanillaSkin.scheme");
CEGUI::WindowManager& wmgr = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton();
uiRoot = wmgr.createWindow( "DefaultWindow", "uiRoot" );
CEGUI::System::getSingleton().setGUISheet(uiRoot);
CEGUI::Window *mainMenu = wmgr.loadWindowLayout("g0_mainmenu.layout");
uiRoot->addChildWindow(mainMenu);
and here I create the about dialog:
Code: Select all
bool generat0r::showAboutDialog(const CEGUI::EventArgs &e)
{
CEGUI::WindowManager& wmgr = CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton();
//need to check if layout is already loaded - can only be loaded once
CEGUI::Window *aboutDialog;
if(!wmgr.isWindowPresent("generat0r_AboutDialog") )
{
aboutDialog = wmgr.loadWindowLayout("g0_aboutdialog.layout");
//aboutDialog->setPosition( CEGUI::UVector2( CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ), CEGUI::UDim( 0.25f, 0 ) ) ); // this is now done in the layout where it works!
CEGUI::Window* textComponent = (CEGUI::Window*)CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton().getWindow("generat0r/AboutDialog/StaticText");
textComponent->setText("This is just some text that shows how nicely [colour='FFFF0000']CEGUI can format strings.[colour='FF00FF00'] and this is just colour [colour='FF0000FF'] formatting!");
uiRoot->addChildWindow(aboutDialog);
CEGUI::PushButton* UI_CloseButton = (CEGUI::PushButton*)CEGUI::WindowManager::getSingleton().getWindow("generat0r/AboutDialog/CloseButton");
UI_CloseButton->subscribeEvent(CEGUI::PushButton::EventClicked, CEGUI::Event::Subscriber(&generat0r::hideAboutDialog, this));
}
else
{
//aboutDialog = static_cast<CEGUI::Window*>(wmgr.getWindow("generat0r_AboutDialog"));
aboutDialog = static_cast<CEGUI::Window*>(uiRoot->getChild("generat0r_AboutDialog"));
aboutDialog->show();
aboutDialog->activate();
}
return true;
}
If you need the layouts too - let me know.
Cheers,
michael

Thanks for the information, I'll try and reproduce this soon, since if possible I'd like the fix to go in for the coming 0.7.3 release

I tried to reproduce this using the posted code and layouts taken from another thread, however I could not get the same behaviour
Any other info you could give (or a minimal - but fully functioning - test case that reproduces the behaviour) would be great
