[TreeView remove item by pointer/name]

any fix ?

[TreeView remove item by pointer/name]

How to use it ?
Yesterday it seemed to work by setting subnode->SetParent(nullptr); then it would hide the whole tree but today I get an error.
I made code to reproduce it, can replace lines 74-76 in the default project main.
 

	auto tree2 = CreateTreeView(border, border, 280, subpanel3->ClientSize().y - border * 2, subpanel3, TREEVIEW_DRAGANDDROP | TREEVIEW_DRAGINSERT);
	tree2->SetLayout(1, 0, 1, 1);
	
	auto subnode2 = tree2->root->AddNode("Node 1");
	for (int n = 1; n < 10; ++n)
	{
		subnode2->AddNode("Subnode " + String(n));
	}
//error here
	subnode2->SetParent(nullptr);

BTW, also happens with SetParent(NULL);

Hmm hatte früher auch oft Probleme mit den Grafiktreibern, versuch die immer aktuell zu halten vielleicht hast du jetzt gerade auch keine aktuelle Version drauf, und die offiziellen von Nvidia. Ich benutze jedoch Windows.

Und bitte benutzte ab jetzt deepl.com/translator anstatt google Übersetzer und stelle deine Frage nochmal neu ?

[How to add Node from selection]

Hello,

I am yet challenged by adding nodes, namely a subnode to a selected node.
 

shared_ptr<TreeViewNode> *currentNode;
...

case EVENT_WIDGETSELECT:
	...	
	if(event.extra->As<TreeViewNode>()) 
		*currentNode = event.extra->As<TreeViewNode>();
     ...

currentNode->addNode(); // currentNode has no member addNode()

I think the code is self explainatory. How do I make this right ?

[Easy save/ load Projects]

Hello,
it would be really cool to have a system that automatically serializes the application state for later use.
Say you make some array and a correlating treeNode in runtime then click on save and it will detect all the things the users has put in and just brute force saves all the things that are going on and load them for later use.

Hey there, 
I have noticed the updates will only apply if steam has downloaded it, and you make a new project (and copy the old code over).

There should be a button in the app kit to update old projects.

Thanks

[Text Field bugged (I already have a workaround, but plz fix)]

Hey there,

the following code example will make a text field which is rather big and can be applied to the example project if replaced by line  141 and following.
 

	auto styleTextArea = CreateTextField(border, border + 40, subpanel2->ClientSize().x - 2 * border, subpanel2->ClientSize().y - 2 * border - 40, subpanel2);
	styleTextArea->SetAlignment(1, 1, 1, 1);
	styleTextArea->SetText("		#my_iframe{\n		position: absolute;\n		top: 0px;\n		left: 0px;\n		width: 100%;\n		height: 100%;\n		border:0;\n		}\n\n		#hide_button, #show_button{\n		position: absolute;\n		width: 100px;\n		height: 30px;\n			background-color: DodgerBlue;\n		color: white;\n			text-align: center;\n			line-height: 30px;\n		cursor: pointer;\n		}\n\n			#hide_button{\n		left: 10px;\n		}\n\n			#show_button{\n		left: 120px;\n		}\n");

In the latter code example i put the whole text thing in one line , but using my original approach made it even buggier : 
 

#define MULTI_LINE_STRING(a) #a

struct styleTextTemplate{
	const char* text = MULTI_LINE_STRING(
		#my_iframe{\n
		position: absolute;\n
		top: 0px;\n
		left: 0px;\n
		width: 100%;\n
		height: 100%;\n
		border:0;\n
		}\n\n

		#hide_button, #show_button{\n
		position: absolute;\n
		width: 100px;\n
		height: 30px;\n
			background-color: DodgerBlue;\n
		color: white;\n
			text-align: center;\n
			line-height: 30px;\n
		cursor: pointer;\n
		}\n\n

			#hide_button{\n
		left: 10px;\n
		}\n\n

			#show_button{\n
		left: 120px;\n
		}\n
		);
};

// and use setText
auto styleTextArea = CreateTextField(border, border + 40, subpanel2->ClientSize().x - 2 * border, subpanel2->ClientSize().y - 2 * border - 40, subpanel2);
	styleTextArea->SetAlignment(1, 1, 1, 1);
	styleTextTemplate style;
	styleTextArea->SetText(style.text);

[TreeView remove item by pointer/name]

1 minute ago, Optimus Josh said:

Didn't we just say the exact same thing two different ways? 

FindChild implies you would need to know there is a parent. But if you dont know the parent you would need to call it from the root, then it collapses on itself and it becomes a Find() function. Now if you had a find function there needs to be a unique identifier for each widget which the user could set and dont need to worry about all of this.

Maybe the Widget  class should have a FindChild method?

A findchild method could also be useful for many situations, but in this scenario you would know which exact widget you need to remove. Is there a way to hide a widget by widget text ?

[TreeView remove item by pointer/name]

It would be better to access the tree by array or pointer .

[TreeView remove item by pointer/name]

Hello,

It is rather hard to remove an item from a TreeView if its not on the lowest subnode. 
 

auto it = std::find(itemFolder->begin(), itemFolder->end(), itemClass);
if (it != itemFolder->end())
	itemFolder->erase(it);
subnode->ClearNodes();
// rebuild nodes
for each (itemClass k in *itemFolder)
{
	subnode->AddNode(k.info);
}

This for example works okay if you rebuild the tree in the following but you won't be able to remove if it is in a top treenode.

	}
	*/
	file << "hello thois isa a test";

}

string compileAndExport(string& contents) {
	return "";
}

I create a button at line 53 which is on a second window.
This window is shown in line 107, so far so good but at line 124 it will not hide.

I hope you can fix this issue soon.

[(Solved) Help with content shown using 2 CAMERA entities]

Check your parameters because you are not using them except entity and i dont know if it collides with sometihg so maybe rename that.  Check if target is set and if the function is called.

[How to subtitle dialogs in Leadwerks...]

Hey, just wanted to say that game looks really cool. Did you post more about it in showcase ? 

[(Solved) Help with content shown using 2 CAMERA entities]

Place a pivot in the exact rotation and location of your second camera and then write a small script that puts your current camera wherever the cutscene pos is. You need to think of having only one camera at all times. Store information about text/images/post process in script and disable/enable whenever you need it.

Happy to be a part of this.

As you said, lack of proper communication contributed pretty badly for the state of the project. Text communication is probably the worst of all forms. Voice would be good but the best would be in-person, though its impossible .
Hereby I propose that we could meet on a voice channel maybe discord some time soon.
Lets make more discussion about game design and make a better plan about everything (e.g. code documentation, asset list, map design etc.).

[How to rotate object to follow mouse [lua]?]

4 hours ago, hom.png said:

I don't think this is the right thing because I want it to rotate towards the mouse yet this will rotate it constantly however, there is some good use in this as if I make a rotVec for the y coordinates as well and do the whole Rot=ATan(rotVecy/rotVecx) thing and then do self.entity:SetRotation(0,self.entity:GetRotation().y+(Rot*lookSpeedMultiplier),0) and then run the code you can see that the moment you cross where x=0 the entity starts rotating the other way and I assume this is the base of the issue.

you would need to put the mouse back, maybe use Math Lerp function for that.

[How to rotate object to follow mouse [lua]?]

So you are only setting the y rotation of lets say your character controller.
Why would you not just rotate it based on direction vector and make it really small ?

local rotVec = window:GetMousePosition()x-(window:GetWidth*0.5)

local lookSpeedMultiplier = 0.01

self.entity:GetRotation(0, self.entity.rotation.y + (rotVec * lookSpeedMultiplier), 0)

 

I just wrote the code in here so there might be errors but it may work. Also always make *0.5 instead of /2 because the compiler could not detect that /2 is more difficult to calculate than *0.5

[Still Here]

Sorry I will not work on this project until there are specifications on what I need to do
