  • i
    is MessageBox meant to show an icon if one is provided?
  • i
    and is Dialog meant to get its body text from 
    .text
    ?
  • i
    neither seem to be showing an icon I provide, and Dialog ignores any text I set in 
    dialog.text
    (but 
    dialog.title
    works fine)
  • b
    So, its not possible to customize the messagebox icon - that said, i think its a nice addition, and yeah, i think messagebox.icon would be a nice fit
  • b
    as for "dialog body" what do you mean? You mean messagebox?
  • i
    as in the content of the dialogue, the body text

    ok, so yeah, thats message box... usually i use "Dialogs.messageBox(...)", though i think constructing it yourself and setting icon and text manually are good additions - ill add them, doubt it will take long
  • i
    I did think about using that convenience function, just that a lot of the things I have to set end up looking ugly and less readable for a lot of data
  • i
    Copy code
    hx
var dialogue = new MessageBox();
dialogue.title = I18nHelper.instance.tr("editor/theme-switch-modal/title");
dialogue.message = I18nHelper.instance.tr("editor/theme-switch-modal/message-body");
dialogue.buttons = DialogButton.YES | DialogButton.NO;
dialogue.customStyle.percentWidth = 60;
dialogue.icon = "assets/images/editor/warning.png";
  • b
    yeah, thats fair, but i also think your way of using it 100% valid, and expectations for .text and .icon are also valid (though its not how it works currently - but ill add it shortly)
  • i
    I don't know where you get the energy to keep this up 😓
  • i
    I'm lucky to add a dialogue box instead of reading through the existing code and giving up to play rhythm doctor
  • b
    heh heh, well, i like improvements to the api - i tend to use haxeui in the specific kinda way, so its good to get feed back about how to improve little things like this (plus, it seems like 10 minute job)
  • i
    10 minute job is always a plus
  • b
    ok, latest haxeui-core
  • b
    Copy code
    haxe
            var mb = new MessageBox();
            mb.text = "This message body was set via the .text property";
            mb.icon = "haxeui-core/styles/default/haxeui_small.png";
            mb.buttons = "Custom" | DialogButton.CANCEL;
            mb.show();

    looks beautiful
  • i
    thank you again
  • b
    np - its a nice (and super simple) change / addition
  • i
    only other thing I can think of atm: for the dialogue buttons, you can currently use 
    "custom text"
    like you did above or a 
    DialogButton
    value, or 
    "custom text" | DialogButton.value
  • i
    is it possible to change the text displayed for those 
    DialogButton
    values, for translation?
  • i
    or to have two custom values instead of that
  • b
    they should already be translated, no?
  • b
    those strings (Cancel) come from a locale file
  • i
    so it uses the system locale? or can you set the locale it uses manually?
  • i
    for instance if I had a language select menu in-game
  • b
    it tries to find the system locale, yeah, but you can also change it
  • i
    where does it pull the locale from?
  • b
    Copy code
    haxe
        LocaleManager.instance.language = "fr";
        showMessageBox.onClick = function(_) {
            var mb = new MessageBox();
            mb.text = "This message body was set via the .text property";
            mb.icon = "haxeui-core/styles/default/haxeui_small.png";
            mb.buttons = "Custom" | DialogButton.CANCEL;
            mb.show();
            
        }
  • b
    you mean how does it detect it?
