Mac OS X - Mouse Events

[Dalon]

Hi there,

I hope I am not totally wrong here with my issue I am writing a little test game and want it to run on Windows and Mac OS X as well (maybe linux too, later ^^). I'm using Ogre3D (1.7.2), CEGUI (0.7.5) and OIS (don't know the exact version) and it works great on Windows.

I also got it running on Mac OS X after having some startup problems, missing the PlugInBundle Folder content etc. ^^ Now it starts, and my Software Mouse Cursor moves correctly (it is displayed at the correct position, so i guess CEGUI gets the correct information from OIS) BUT my button controls don't do anything... I can't click them... They don't highlight on mouseover and so on. On windows, anything seems to be okay.

Screenshot in windows with button down
(The cursor is hidden here because I use the hardware cursor in windows and hide the CEGUI Software cursor)

Screenshot in Mac OS X - Button does not react in any way

And maybe some code...?

Code: Select all

bool Game::mouseMoved(const OIS::MouseEvent &arg)
{
    // Inject mouse movement
   m_pGUISystem->injectMousePosition((float)arg.state.X.abs, (float)arg.state.Y.abs);
    //m_pGUISystem->injectMouseMove((float)arg.state.X.rel, (float)arg.state.Y.rel);
    // Same result with both calls above on Mac OS X... correct CEGUI::MouseCursor position but no reaction from the buttons

   // Update active game state
   if (m_pActiveState)
      m_pActiveState->mouseMoved(arg);

   return true;
}

(this method is called correctly, I logged to check)

Code: Select all

bool Game::mousePressed(const OIS::MouseEvent &arg, OIS::MouseButtonID id)
{
   m_pGUISystem->injectMouseButtonDown((CEGUI::MouseButton)id);

   // Update active game state
   if (m_pActiveState)
      m_pActiveState->mousePressed(arg, id);

   return true;
}

Code: Select all

bool Game::mouseReleased(const OIS::MouseEvent &arg, OIS::MouseButtonID id)
{
   m_pGUISystem->injectMouseButtonUp((CEGUI::MouseButton)id);

   // Update active game state
   if (m_pActiveState)
      m_pActiveState->mouseReleased(arg, id);

   return true;
}

Any suggestions?

17:48 < Kulik> can you just cast OIS::MouseButton ato CEGUI::MouseButton?

17:48 < Kulik> I think you should be able to but I wouldn't do that
17:48 < CrazyEddie> no

17:49 < Kulik> according to C++ spec the enums of CEGUI will get unique values
               within the enum but no word about what their integer values will
               be
17:49 < CrazyEddie> it should be done like it's done in the samples


EDIT: Kulik shows the entire internetz that he didn't read the C++ specification

That's the first thing I would fix. That said I am quite sceptic that this is _the problem_.

Okay, I fixed that but as you guessed, that's not the problem. Also, it worked like this before (on windows, can't tell for mac os x) but even the mouseOver-state of the button seems not to be activated, allthought the CEGUI Mouse Cursor moves correctly.

I managed to find out a few more details...

The button click events are working! So when I click on a button, the event is fired correctly. I think CEGUI just does not render correctly for some reason I don't know...

Edit: I now downloaded the latest prebuild SDK of CEGUI and recompiled my project on the mac and it now works as it should Oo Only my Editbox acts a little bit strange with the carat... but okay, thats not too bad i think.

Hmm that moves the problem from the weird category to the "very weird" category.

Anyways, good that you got that fixed.

Yeah i mean... it compiled... it linked... it started... and it didn't crash... it just did not work like I expected it to work.

I guess in Windows I would have gotten some error message on app start like "Method XXXXXX wasn't defined in module CEGUIOgreRenderer.dll" or something like that.
