  • b
    So everything is on top of one another
  • b
    And layout is defined with macros, which struggle with the haxe language server enabled
  • b
    OK at least I understand why stuff looks the way it looks when the bug happens
  • b
    that wasnt a macro problem, that was that he used Box and not VBox
  • b
    ... im not sure i understand what you mean about "the layout is defined with macros" - the layout is defined by... layouts in haxe code
  • b
    Last time I looked into the code, layout for objects was under a @behaviour or somth tag
  • b
    What I ment is, when the language server screws up, all of the components end up overlapping each other on the screen. That's what would happen if nothing had layout
  • b
    well, not really, there is a @:composite meta data, but its just a helper, so you can do: 
    @:composite(VerticalLayout)
    but thats the same as doing:
  • b
    Copy code
    haxe
/**
 A `Box` component that lays its children out vertically
**/
@:dox(icon = "/icons/ui-split-panel-vertical.png")
class VBox extends Box {
    public function new() {
        super();
        layout = new VerticalLayout();
    }
}
  • b
    the VerticalLayout is what does the actual layout
  • b
    Oh so I misremembered/stupid lol
  • b
    <component layoutName="vertical" />
    == 
    <vbox/>
  • b
    Still interesting to know why the language server hates haxeui sometimes
  • b
    yeah
  • b
    😦
  • b
    this should be fixed now...
  • s
    hm, I haven't seen this before was it recently added?
  • b
    yup, thats the one i told you about above
  • b
    your xml is and your class is Dialog
  • b
    change to and it will go away
  • b
    (change the end aswell ofc)
  • s
    apparently I need to adjust the width and height manually i ran the following commands
    Copy code
    haxelib git haxeui-core https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-core
haxelib git haxeui-hxwidgets https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-hxwidgets
haxelib git hxWidgets https://github.com/haxeui/hxWidgets
  • s
    now I'll try with
  • b
    i get this:
  • b
    but that makes sense i think as footer is longer than then content
  • b
    weird
  • b
    maybe you havent gotten the latest haxeui-hxwidgets?
  • b
    or maybe you need a clean build?
  • s
    maybe
  • b
    you might also want to consider a) removing the custom button to make the footer take up less space and/or b) stop making all the buttons 17px font size
