LÖVE

Lovely library! Thanks for the image buttons.
Now I needed a button array (a list of buttons where only one stays "down"), so I made some little changes to your code.
If groupIndex > 0 a button is allways "on". Other buttons of the same group are "off"
In button.lua: and On skin.lua:

You can "Fork" the github repo and than "Clone" it to your desktop. "Merge" your changes in, "Commit" and "Push" it to your Github Fork. Than send a "Pull request" to Nikolai.

This way it's a lot easier for him to merge your changes.

Hope this helps using github .

thx and good luck!

Thanks for the tips. I'll do it if I can contribute more.

One bug: function list:GetScrollBar() crash if there are no scrollbars. Should return nil...
Also, I think that list size shouldn't include scrollbars.

One question: What's the difference between "enabled" and "clickable" ? They seem to have the same behavior.

Thanks!

If you don't mind, i'll seriously consider using this while making the editor for my game.

Thanks! I hope my library works well for your editor if you decide to use it.

In button.lua:

Code: Select all

function button:initialize()

	self.type			= "button"

	self.width 			= 80
	self.height 		= 25

and

	if self.visible == false then
		return
	end

On skin.lua:

Code: Select all

function skin.DrawButton(object)

	local index	= loveframes.config["ACTIVESKIN"]
	local font = skin.controls.button_text_font
	local twidth = font:getWidth(object.text)
	local theight = font:getHeight(object.text)
	local hover = object.hover
	local down = object.down
	local switched = object.switched
	local gradientcolor = {}
	
	if down == true or switched == true then
...

No problem! Also, I'm glad you're finding extended use of the button object!

Wow! This is really really cool! The thing where you press down on a button then drag outside above other buttons and have them do nothing doesn't seem to work exactly like that in the demo, but I absolutely LOVE your work!

Thanks for the info! I'll have that fixed in the next update. Also, please report the bugs you find to the issue tracker on the github repository if you can, as this makes keeping track of bugs easier and it also helps people who may be encountering the same bugs.

If a button is "clickable" it will become "down" when pressed. If a button is "enabled" it will run it's OnClick function when clicked if it has one.

I'm not quite sure what you mean dragging buttons and them not doing anything. If you could give me more details I should be able to help you whatever the problem is.

Sorry I guess I could have explained that better . I was talking about the hover animation of other buttons when you are still dragging off a different button. Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0nwK_X5x-8

Oh thats what you meant. Yeah I've considered preventing objects from being hovered over when another object is "down". I'll probably change that in the next update.

Do you mind posting the code for your demo?

I read the documentation and what not but I believe I must be doing something wrong as nothing works.
It will draw like a button but the doclick function won't work it seems.

Love the look of the library though. Reminds me of Garry's Mod's DERMA or GWEN by Garry Newman.

The code for the demo can be found by opening up the .love file with an archiving application such as 7-Zip. Your problem sounds strange though. Is it possible you could make a video showing what the issue is?

Yeah, I used to code gamemodes and addons for Garry's Mod a lot. Me using DERMA so much in the past has no doubt influenced many aspects of Löve Frames.
