    Damn, that's cool, can't wait to have full support of haxe-ui with Ceramic and add a sample to the website to showcase it 😄

    Few questions 1. is there a way to alter how textures are scaled so that things arent so blurry when scaling the game up (so when targeting a low res and running in a higher res) 2. Are there any plans to prevent the application window from scaling due to windows dpi aware setting? 3. Probably really more of a haxe in general thing, but is there an easy way to get the cpp build/windows build working. Currently getting an issue with it not finding the compiler (i think). I do have visual studio installed with cpp support

    ok hold nr 3 for a min. I did update visual studio and may have not added cpp support to the installation ill check that now
  • s
    Copy code
    haxe
        // Render as low resolution / pixel art
        pixelArt = new PixelArt();
        pixelArt.size(width, height);
        app.scenes.filter = pixelArt;
  • s
    this may be a hint lol

    Is there a built in way for attached visual components to follow the parent and be positioned relative to it, or is it up to us to handle that in update
  • a
    I thought it automatically did that
  • a
    iirc it is in tho
  • a
    I remember reading it in the api
  • s
    doesnt seem to. Always possible im doing something incorrectly
  • s
    Also the scene filter doesnt seem to be applied to my components 🤔
  • f
    you have to 
    add
  • s
    Wow what a dumb ass thing to miss. I think i got thrown off by the 
    @entity
    metadata automatically assigning that field and somehow thought things just magically attach
  • s
    Would it be considered standard to create component versions of some built in entities/visuals to attach them to parent objects? So for example using the sprite plugin we have sprite entities, but I want to attach them to my custom entities. I therefore extend Sprite and implement Component
  • f
    are you mixing the Component system with the Visual system?
  • s
    Potentially - I dont yet understand the difference (apart from visual being rendered)
  • s
    For this example i have a custom class that inherits from visual --> I want this entity to be composed of two sprites --> so i created a 
    SpriteComponent
    class which extends 
    Sprite
    and implments 
    Component
    --> I attach 2 of those to the original custom visual
  • s
    Ah wait - So visuals have their own attachment system?
  • f
    visuals and components are two separate systems, really
  • f
    there can be situations where you would want something that's both a visual and a component, but that is not the default way that things are intended to work normally
  • s
    Yeah i just assumed it worked that way and it did "work"
  • s
    but i just changed the spritecomponent class to a base sprite and it also worked
  • s
    I think it may be a "bit" confusing that you use the same 
    add
    function
  • s
    (but may make sense if more used to how things work)
  • f
    personally, i haven't been using components much
  • f
    and i don't use any component+visuals
  • f
    currently, i use components for ui intro animations
  • s
    Components are one of the main draws for me
  • f
    without talking about ceramic in particular, what exactly are you trying to do here?
