    does selecting multiple files in dialogs work now?
  • s
    does haxeui-hxwidgets have a function to open a directory to get the path?
  • b
    right, haxeui-hxwidgets oversight it seems - will sort it
  • b
    nope, not at the moment

    @bright-gpu-74537 I'm working on something called DynamicTextField for openfl, which behaves like the text inputs in PowerPoint (i mean its resizable, draggable, rotatable...) I also want to implement something like that in haxeui, but I'm wondering if it's better off merged into haxeui... Do you think it's worth merging?

    where do I find the Heaps 
    hxd.App
    class?
  • m
    Just ran the haxeUI command for a Heaps project: 
    haxelib run haxeui-core create heaps
    according to https://www.haxeui.org/getting-started/haxeui-heaps/
  • m
    when do 
    Main extends hxd.App
    I get a black screen (but as it is it works fine)
  • m
    (of course reinstalled 
    haxeui-core
    and 
    haxeui-heaps
    before trying)
  • b
    so the example generated by 
    haxeui-core create
    uses the HaxeUIApp, and in haxeui-heaps that will contain an hxd.App... note, you dont have to do any of this, you should just be able to "Toolkit.init()" and 
    s2d.add(myComponent)
  • b
    Im not sure it makes sense to be in core does it? It sounds quite specific and more of an "extension" type thing, no? Also, how would it work on other backends?
  • b
    No reason for it to not work
  • b
    It doesn't really depend on text abilities, mostly surrounding stuff

    @bright-gpu-74537 Hi, is there a simple/in-box solution to resize component by dragging its corner? Or can you give me an idea how to implement this?
  • i
  • b
    there is nothing in built, no, although, this sounds suspiciously close to what @best-agent-85158 is talking about, maybe some container system could be created that would allow you to size / move any component? (rather than just text)
  • b
    Yeah that's exactly what I'm doing
  • b
    Rn I only implemented drag, but work8ng 9n resize next, and then rotation
  • b
    Wait - you can make a container that dose that! That actually does match haxeui
  • b
    Maybe 
    DynamicContainer
    or somth
  • b
    maybe "Resizable"? Like:
    Copy code
    xml
<resizable>
    <button />
</resizable>
  • b
    although, i wonder if just a resizable (or maybe userResizable) property on component makes more sense... 🤔
  • b
    @bright-gpu-74537 why this code is not working? - I try to execute the function every time i press the mouse HaxeUIApp.instance is not null - i have already created HaxeUIApp; also i am trying to register event in the ready function
    Copy code
    haxe
HaxeUIApp.instance.registerEvent(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, function(event: Dynamic) {
    trace("abc");
});

    I think the tab to a new textfield focus issue is back with the latest update from git. I can tab into a new field and enter text, but the placeholder text is still present. Both the placeholder text and what I enter remain in grey rather than black.
  • b
    HaxeUIApp.instance
    wont dispatch dispatch mouse events... 
    Screen.instance
    will (though im not sure it will on hxwidgets - but not 100% sure)
  • b
    hmmmm
  • b
    Thx, it works

    Trying to navigate to the rest of the components from the '...' button at the end of the component tree on I get 404 at .
  • h
    I'm trying to find doc on the 
    disabled
    attribute and whether I can set it with an expression that refers to a variable in my MainView class. Anyone know if this can be done succinctly ?
  • h
    I was hoping something like this
    Copy code
    @:bind(saveDefinitionButton.disabled)
    var _saveRequired:Bool;
    would work but I cannot get it to fly
