    alright, so essentially put the resize functions in one method and call it from there?
  • f
    yes
  • f
    and by extending resize, you don't need to worry with a bunch of events
  • f
    you can disregard the stuff involving cursor and ui; those are for my elaborate system to make the ui navigable by mouse, keyboard, and gamepad
  • g
    cool 👍
  • g
    also, how long have you been working with ceramic?
  • f
    uh
  • f
    three months
  • g
    nice
  • g
    have you made anything with it
  • f
    i started because flixel's spine library was out of date and not functioning
  • f
    i am in the process of making a very complicated thing
  • g
    ah yes
  • f
    because i like making very complicated things
  • g
    a very complicated thing
  • g
    any games?
  • f
    oh, that reminds me, i actually got it to a semi-playable state yesterday and posted it in a few places, but forgot to post in #162664383082790912 here
  • f
    be back in a few
  • g
    ok lol
  • g
    just got back, the code still doesnt work
    Copy code
    hx
    override function resize(width, height:Float) {
        super.resize(width, height);
        if (options != null) {
            options.size(this.width, this.height / 4);
        }
    }
  • g
    this is in my scene
  • g
    options
    is 
    MenuOptions
  • g
    :/
  • g
    also tried making a 
    resize
    method in 
    MenuOptions
    and then calling it from scene's 
    resize
    and the constructor for 
    MenuOptions
    , also didnt work
  • f
    pos
    it too
  • g
    👍
  • g
    I'll try it

    Yes, a Text object is displaying characters of a bitmap font using quads
  • b
    That means you can actually modify the quads afterwards to add some effects, like, if you want to shake the characters, or create a "typing" animation etc... There is an event 
    glyphQuadsChange
    that is fired everytime the quads are changed (usually from changing the text content). You can then access the quads by reading the 
    glyphQuads
    property.
  • b
    This is an example of taking advantage of this feature to add an "italic" effect to the text: https://github.com/ceramic-engine/ceramic/blob/151ddc6701b781d24b6f393153b20ee37b1f9dd3/plugins/elements/runtime/src/elements/ItalicText.hx
