CEGUI (Crazy Eddie's GUI) Forums

New snapshot has been released. Both archives provide testing sample data with CEGUI 0.7 and CEGUI 0.8 datafiles.

Roadmap lists a staggering number - 39 resolved issues! (a record!) Changes were mainly related to usability improvements and bug fixes. Animation editor has been started and the initial code is part of this release as well. There are still several outstanding issues regarding 0.7 asset editing, but jigsaw is finally falling into place! I am planning to do 1 or 2 more snapshot releases and then (depending on when CEGUI is released) release the first stable.

I would like to thank Pavlos Touboulidis and Chris Trenkamp for extremely valuable contributions. This release wouldn't have been even half as interesting without them!

Plans for snapshot7: http://cegui.org.uk/mantis/roadmap_page ... sion_id=28

Enjoy and please report any problems!

Got an error when trying to do Save All when 0.7 is selected



EDIT by Kulik: enclosed the exception message in code tags

Mars_999: Thanks for reporting. I am trying to figure out how to reproduce this issue. Your report is very vague. I think the only way to have "" as the layout output passed into compat layers is to try to save a layout with no root element.

If this is the case, please clarify it. The issue would then be unrelated to saveAll. I am wondering what should CEED do when user tries to save a layout that has no root widget. Empty file? Or error dialog? What do you think?

IIRC I didn't put any widget in the window and tried to save it... I would probably throw and error saying please add a root level or make one by default all the time? What will happen if someone saves it with no root and loads it into the API? I am assuming crash or undefined? IMO if they don't have one should allow them to save it as nothing got done while they were using CEED, so next time start over and save the project then....

Thanks!

No problem! Can't wait for the final release!!!!

Hi!

At first, thank you for your hard work on this editor.

In the newest Snapshot6 release, I noticed one bug with the TaharezLook/ImageButton.
When I edit the ImageButton Hover/Normal/Pushed images in the editor, it's working. However, when I save the layout, the Hover/Normal/Pushed images are not saved correctly.

Here is saved window from Snapshot6:


and here the same from Snapshot5:


Also, Is it possible to add an "Event" property to the Window? We use Lua scripting for button press etc., so we just insert to the Window and it's calling the function we define...

Thank you!

EDIT: also, in the StaticImage, ImageField, I notice the same bug as described in previous post "Image Field not taking input?".

Padres: Thanks for the report, I will get it fixed. Ticket: http://cegui.org.uk/mantis/view.php?id=705

Kulik & team,

Its fantastic to see regular releases on this. Thank you all for the great work!
We are actually using this tool for a production game, and its working pretty well (I have learned to work around most bugs for now)

Awesome If there are bugs you know about that aren't in mantis, please add them, possibly even including the workarounds. The application is becoming really big and bugs creep in :-/ I would like to get most of production issues fixed before the first stable. Thanks!

I posted this awhile back....

Just to make sure since another has seen this issue it gets pointed out!

Mars_999: Things need to have tickets or they get forgotten, I have created a ticket for it in http://cegui.org.uk/mantis/view.php?id=706

Any news on a stable release or snapshot 7?

I been holding off doing any work with CEGUI until this editor is done anymore.
Thanks!

It's scheduled for 1st March but I think that's unrealistic since I will be out of CZ at that time, it's more likely to come out in the middle of March.

You can work with the mercurial tip until then, it's fairly stable.
