sos, RenderedStringParser system ,help me

[spracle]

2 problems:

1. [window] tag can't work ,here's my key codes:

Code: Select all

Listbox* Lbox = static_cast<Listbox*>(winMgr.getWindow("ChatItem/FrameWindow1/Listbox1"));
CEGUI::String tx2("[window='Animation/StaticImage1']");
ListboxTextItem *Lptr3 = new ListboxTextItem(tx2);
Lbox->addItem(static_cast<ListboxItem*>(Lptr3));


it seems that:Although there were some spaces for this window, it wasn't rendered

2."[colour='FFEE00D0']abcdefg[image='set:Button image:1']". With this code,this image also affected by the colour(obviously not my wanted). How can i avoid this situation?

By the way, I hope someone here can give me some tips for hyperlink implementation(am i too greedy )

ok,now I can figure out my second question:

Code: Select all

void BasicRenderedStringParser::handleImage(RenderedString& rs, const String& value)
{
    RenderedStringImageComponent ric(
        PropertyHelper::stringToImage(value));
    ric.setPadding(d_padding);
    ric.setColours(d_colours);
    ric.setVerticalFormatting(d_vertAlignment);
    ric.setSize(d_imageSize);
    ric.setAspectLock(d_aspectLock);
    rs.appendComponent(ric);



if I comment this line : //ric.setColours(d_colours) ,then the image will remain what it really is (I don't need to set colour to images~~)
Or I can also write my string like this "[colour='FFEE00D0']abcdefg[colour='00000000'][image='set:Button image:1']" (it's rather complicated,worse than the first solution)

The image colouring thing is by design - it's supposed to be a feature! The correct work-around for that should be "[colour='FFFFFFFF']" rather than 00000000 which should give you a totally transparent image (so maybe that is a bug?!).

The Window part is more involved. Basically, the window you refer to needs to already exist as a child of the window upon which you are setting the text containing the tag. Unfortunately, because ListboxTextItem and related classes are not Window based, this mean that having windows controlled / embedded within text in those items is not going to work properly. By switching to an ItemListbox which uses window based content as items (ItemEntry / skinned "<somelook>/ListboxItem" windows), and adding the tag target window(s) to those items, you can get it to work. This situation does preclude use of this specific ability in Combox lists and multi-column lists, since no ItemEntry based alternatives exist for those yet (this will be addressed for CEGUI 0.8.0).

To get hyperlinks / clickable text, you basically need a push button which only renders text.

thanks CE，You are always so patient
The colour thing is my mistake .At that time I was wondering it should be [00000000] or [FFFFFFFF]. With not checking, I chosed [0000000] casually.Forgive me,
Finally, I understood why the [window] tag didn't work,sigh~~ Next, i will give it a try to change the itemListbox with entryItem.( In fact, i'm building gamechatbox ).

The hyperText idea is pretty cool,but in my opinion it isn't flexible.Because,the size is auto changed by the length of the text( I am about to use it in the gamechatbox) .

I hope you can follow the topic ,CE.I may well have other problems.

That's easy, to get the width of the text use Font::getTextExtent(), and for the height Font::getFontHeight(). =D
