Can you change the style elements of a widget without having to create whole new style and applying it? For example, is it possible to move a widget just by changing it's "left" and "top" style elements?

You create a new style that only specifies left and top, and apply it to the element.

The following code adds a button to the context, and set it to location (10, 10), without modifying the buttons' default style.

Code: Select all

local context = ui.context()
st_b1, button_b1 = 
context:add(
  ui.style("b1", {left=10,top=10}),
  ui.button("b1", {value = "Menu"})
    :onclick(function(self, x, y, button)
      print("click", x, y, button)
    end))

EDIT: If you want to move the widget every frame... remove the style that describes the location and add a new style that describes the updated location.

Code: Select all

function love.update(dt)
  context:update(dt)
  context:remove(st_b1)
  st_b1.styles.left = st_b1.styles.left + 1
  context:add(st_b1)
end
