    ill add the animation ones though... because they are useful, and i would hate to have to create that again 😄
  • f
    Interesting. I don't why I would have thought they had a simpler way to do it
  • b
    i think with pretty much any "layout system" you are potentially going to have issues with things moving when you size them, it seems css's scale doesnt work that way (im assuming anyway)
  • f
    Indeed... Yeah, css is so weird
  • o
    Ian have you flexbox control that can be powerful
  • b
    nope, i guess the close thing i have to it (but its not really anything like it) is the continuous hbox
  • b
    (but its really not anything like the flex box)

    there is Cassowary, Kiwi, Jasper libraries, it should be feasible to put the constraints in XML. https://lib.haxe.org/p/jasper/ my understanding is that swift uses a cassowary style layout tool, probably it can be hooked on top of simpler layout editors
  • o
    I am unsure which is best haxe version.
  • o
    they can be rather tricky to use but quite powerful

    I am adding a row to a table. Is there a way to scrollto the newly added row? And related, is there a scrollto for the scrollview?
  • b
    there is "ensureVisible" in scrollview that should work... though its overridden in listview, and not tableview, so might need a tweak - let me know if doesnt work and ill sort it
  • b
    the parser issue is fixed now, haxeui will automatically wrap "" sections with CData, so " if (x < 0) {}" (which used to break the xml parser) will now turn into "<![CDATA[ if (x < 0) {}]]>>" (which is fine)

    dang i still need to get around to trying haxeui
  • b
    🙂

    i think this is probably my fav example / component: http://haxeui.org/explorer/#basic/canvas
  • b
    i put off writing it for ages for some reason
  • b
    added another example to the explorer: http://haxeui.org/explorer/#examples/todos - todomvc type thing... the idea here is to write as little code as possible, which so far has been pretty effective i think: haxe code: 84 lines (and a lot of that is just imports, functions, @bind, etc, etc) layout xml: 34 lines css: 95 lines i feel like its a pretty functional example for a verrrry small amount of code 🙂
  • t
    its def worth it
  • t
    Especially since its not hard to integrate with OpenFL and flixel, and wxWidgets
  • t
    Would it be possible to add the scroll bar to the dialog of the todos itself?
  • e
    my current issue is that im targeting all sys targets right now though
  • e
    i dont see any haxe-ui backends that work on java or python
  • e
    i could live without python having a gui, but if i do have a gui id want it to work on java
  • e
    actually, is haxe-ui thread-safe? 🤔

    I took your todo sample and wrote some ui tests for it (see haxeium samples folder). Html5 works fine, C++ app fails some tests due to element visibility - on the other hand it demonstrates automatic-screenshots-when-error feature, so it kinda works...
  • l
    I have found two things during testing: ButtonBar doesn't seem to react to hover or clicks, so no filtering. also all rows use the same id's for checkbox, textfield and button, not sure if that should be fixed
  • b
    maybe i should restart haxeui-javafx 🙂
  • b
    im not sure what you mean... if you add enough items, the whole todo container will scroll, if you wanted to just scroll the items in the todo, that would be possible too (by just wrapping it in a scrollview rather than the whole "app")
