New snapshot has been released. Archives provide testing sample data with CEGUI 0.7 and CEGUI 0.8 datafiles.
There have been 29 issues fixed from the last snapshot6. The most remarkable change is probably the new property set inspector by Pavlos Toubolidis and initial animation editing (though it's just a tech preview for now, expect issues!).
Grab the source tarball, Windows standalone binaries or OSX application bundle (experimental) at
https://sourceforge.net/projects/crayze ... snapshot7/
Known issues:
Due to refactoring changes in CEGUI related to Checkbox, ToggleButton and Radiobox, there may be issues when loading layouts with any of them.

Re: Snapshot7 release
Hello,
first i want to thank everyone supporting CEED: Snapshot this tool enormously helps to speed up development with CEGUI !
As we are using this combination for our current project once more i came across one thing i am really missing to have a better work flow within snapshot.
Is it possible to include a navigation window that displays the image while one edits a taharezlook.imagset ? I have to arrange a lot of small areas within a huge image and its really annoying to use the scrollbars in every instance.
Besides that i really enjoy working with this tool.

Re: Snapshot7 release
Thanks for the feedback, great that this tool is useful for people.
You mean a smaller image that you drag to navigate? Like http://www.photoshopcstutorials.co.uk/a ... n_gimp.gif ?
Feel free to create a ticket in mantis (same login info as on this forum will work), maybe someone will look at it. Have you tried panning with the middle mouse button?

Re: Snapshot7 release

Re: Snapshot7 release
Hello,
It defnitly is, it helps a great deal.
YES ! Thats it. I am spoiled by several paint/photo programs where this is common, i guess i am very used to work with this.
OK, i will try that, maybe i add some small other things.
No, didn't know that feature, thanks for the hint.

Re: Snapshot7 release
Wonderful job!
I've left CE quite a while, and today, when i came aroud and saw this fabulous tool, you guys really surprise me! This is the right one i want to develope when i use CEGUI to develope my first game!
Two years before, i dived into the 3d stuff, and never have time again to polish my job. Anyway, when i saw your work, i realize that i don't need to anymore!
Bless you all!

Re: Snapshot7 release
Hello,
I am attempting to use this release but have hit a roadblock.
- We use cegui 0.7
- We use a lot of 'pixmap' type fonts, generated by a tool.
CEED refuses to load the imagesets associated with these fonts. It loads the imagesets fine otherwise.
Scheme-> imageset (this works)
Scheme -> Font -> imageset (this does not work, CEED complains that imageset version must be 2)
If I use the provided migrate tool to migrate my imageset files, CEED can open them, but the application can not load them anymore (they are now version 2, which CEGUI 0.7 does not know anything about)?
To reproduce this in your distributed sample data:
Add <Font Filename="FairChar-30.font" /> to any .scheme file distributed in the 0.7 sample folder (I tried OgreTray.scheme). Open the provided 0.7 sample project. It will throw an exception upon loading complaining it needs version 2 imagesets.
This is a total showstopper, since I either have files I can edit but not load, or can't edit but can load. Any suggestions for a workaround?
Edit*: I found this thread which discusses the same problem: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=6104&p=28870#p28870. Am I to understand the workaround here is to:
1) Convert existing imageset files -> version 2.0
2) Convert all attribute names back to CamelCase?
Is there any chance of a quick fix of some kind here?

Re: Snapshot7 release
Hi,
the best workaround I can think of is to make a script that runs ceed-migrate on your data. Migrate them to version 2, edit edit edit, migrate them back to version 1 and load into your app. No information will be lost, the migration is 1:1.
I will make a fix for this, sorry that it slipped to the release. It will have to be a proper fix though, this is CEGUI directly fopening the file so no string source transformation tricks will do![Sad :-(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
There is a mantis ticket for this already but I am on GPRS so looking for it now and linking to it would be impractical.

Re: Snapshot7 release
Hi Kulik,
I saw the note on your issue ticket on this, and it does not appear that it is going to get fixed anytime soon. I have implemented your suggested workaround (script to convert to version 2, edit, script to convert to version 1, run).
Although not the prettiest solution, it works for now.
If anyone else has this problem, this Lua script will do it for you. Uses luarocks and luafilesystem.
