Possible bug with FrameWindow?

[Savail]

Hey,
I'm not sure but I might have found a bug in FrameWindow. I'm creating a FrameWindow firstly and then adding child windows to it. When I'm setting properties like setTitleBarEnabled(false) (such that change window's state imagery and named areas) for FrameWindow before adding children everything works fine but if I try to add setTitleBarEnabled(false) after adding children to FrameWindow the overall image gets spoilt.

Here's how it looks when I'm setting setTitleBarEnabled(false) before adding children(correct image):


And here when I'm adding that property after adding children(bad look and interaction with listbox on the left fails):

Is that possible that it's a bug or that's correct CEGUI behaviour? I will be really grateful for any help in this matter and I really appreciate your time spent here!

[CrazyEddie]

This is probably a bug. Can you reproduce the issue using a stock LookNFeel? If so could you provide the code / layout that you use to reproduce it, then I can have an easy test case for fixing this

Unfortunately I am having hard network connection difficulties. I had to reinstall my system and I can't download now my IDE ;p, but hopefully tommorow I'll have my connection fixed. I'll put the necessary code as soon as possible! Thanks for reply!

[Savail]

xD Thanks god, I could download Visual C++ today becouse I got good connection for a few minutes. Now it sucks again but I can code again at least . Ok, so here's full code to reproduce the issue. It's using WinAPI and DirectX. The problem is described in function

Code: Select all

bool Render();

. I'm using here standard CEGUI Taharezlook schemes, xml files etc.

Code: Select all

#include <windows.h>
#include <d3dx9.h>
#include <CEGUI.h>

Sorry I cannot upload whole solution :/, my internet connection doesn't let me... Hopefully this example code above can make it easier for you to diagnose issue. Let me know about your decision ! And thanks for your help, I've been reporting some bugs earlier and thanks to your fixes I could continue coding great GUI in CEGUI without any inconvenience!

Thanks, I'll try to deal with this real soon (hopefully this week).

Btw, I've also been having connectivity issues, it's so frustrating!

CE.
