    Hmm, it looks like egui () is threadsafe? Given that it warns for deadlocks in a few places...
  • b
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
  • b
    an immediate mode gui would be so much easier to make threadsafe
  • b
    looks cool though
  • t
    Ah okay
  • f
    gotta get that haxeui-swing
  • f
    I wonder if python is possible with wxpython and haxeui-wxwidgets
  • b
    wouldnt haxeui-javafx be better / nicer?
  • b
    I doubt it would work with haxeui-hxwidgets... that backend specifically uses the hxcpp externs hxwidgets... that said, i wonder how feasible it is for hxwidgets (the externs not the backend) to use either hxcpp OR python (it would be nice for it to support hl too, but its alot of work - when i get some time it would be really interesting to see if "ammer" could make hxwidgets much more haxe target universal)
  • f
    I mean, my only experience with java ui is 
    javax.swing
  • f
    also ya gotta get that "java metal" look

    hmmm im having trouble adding UI stuff to a FlxSubState
  • k
    the UI stuff works when opened up in a normal FlxState, but FlxSubStates don't seem to be working for me?
  • k
    after doing some digging, could it be related to this thing from years ago? i tried opening my substate with 
    persistentUpdate = false
    and it seemed to work
  • b
    any chance of a minimal repro?
  • k
    im brand new to all this HaxeUI stuff so im starting out with just pure code instead of loading in from xml
  • k
    so I suppose just making a vbox, and adding a simple button to it
  • k
    in my "fix", i set 
    persistentUpdate = false
    , and then at the end of new/create() within the substate, I set persistentUpdate of the parent state (PlayState in my case) to be true, and that sorta fixed it I guess lol?
  • b
    is there anyway you can share your project? Or a recreation of it, its usually easier, as there are (generally) a few ways to do things in haxeui, and rather than me try to guess its easier to just see the code (and either xml or code shouldnt matter)
  • k
    ill get back to u later today, i been up all night and got it to state where it just about works enough for me lolol
  • k
    ill have to make sample project thingie, my current project is big and fussy and secret repo heheh
  • b
    heh heh, fair enough... i would be interested in a minimal repro though... be nice to understand whats going on... ill try and recreate it myself anyway, see if there is something weird going on for me.
  • b
    So ive used substates and it seems without issue:
  • b
    ive used xml, but it shouldnt make a difference, the xml just changes into haxe code
  • b
    (ive also used the flixel-ui theme because... ... well, i like it 🙂 )
  • f
    is it possible to get the bounds (or with) of one section of a splitter? (not the default one but the current one)
  • r
    I have a 
    listview
    , and each item in the list has a button. How do I get an onClick callback for each button, and know which item (maybe item index?) the event came from? Here is a quick example XML:
    Copy code
    xml
<listview width="200" height="200">
    <item-renderer width="100%" layoutName="horizontal">
        <label id="text" width="100%" verticalAlign="center" />
        <button id="action" />
    </item-renderer>
    <data>
        <item text="Item 1" action="Action 1" />
        <item text="Item 2" action="Action 2" />
        <item text="Item 3" action="Action 3" />
    </data>
</listview>

    cant you just get the width of that container?
