I've used Gmod's Derma before and though it was an obvious inspiration to this library, Löve Frames has a leg up on it in many situations (most notably a builtin function to remove all elements- makes prototyping a ton easier). I also really appreciate that even the functions intended for internal use are straightforward and well-documented- I was able to add/change specific functionality to existing elements very easily.

suchipi wrote:How did you implement dynamic sizing of elements in a resizable frame in your demo? Right now, I've been defining a custom function on each object that tells it what to do when its parent is resized, and telling the parent to call this function on its children when resized. It works, but I feel I may be overlooking a method of accomplishing this you've already built into your library. Am I?

I am new to both lua and love2d and was trying to get your library to work.
Can you tell me what am i doing wrong here?
This works.

Code: Select all

    button:SetSize(200, 100):SetText("Button"):Center()
    button.OnClick = button:SetText("You clicked the button!")

But doing this throws an exception:

Code: Select all

    button:SetSize(200, 100):SetText("Button"):Center()
    button.OnClick = button:SetText("You clicked the button!")

    button.OnMouseEnter = button:SetText("The mouse entered the button.")

    button.OnMouseExit = button:SetText("Button")

exception.png

button.OnClick = function()
    button:SetText("You clicked the button!")
end

button.OnMouseEnter = function()
    button:SetText("The mouse entered the button.")
end

button.OnMouseExit = function()
    button:SetText("Button")
end

Do you know if your library plays nice with HUMP? http://vrld.github.io/hump/
I think I am screwing up somewhere in trying to use both the libraries.
