    @bright-gpu-74537 Is the online version of html5 the same as git ? When replacing the Normal MainView with the example xml, and adding it the app, the colour effect doesn't happen ( I just replaced the colors you put wwith blue or red in case it was some problem withe variables) and the grow effect happens only vertically
  • b
    oh 😄 - does it work though?
  • b
    Yeah, should be, what backend is this? Is this literally a copy of the example from the explorer?
  • f
    yes its's a nearly exact copy ( only the variable of colours changed) and the backend is html5. In fact I just commented all other othings in my Main.hx (because I was lazy ... and I just copied it in the main program I'm working on) and npw it doesn't grow vertically anymore. Weird.
  • f
    ( I'm on latest git ( from this morning))
  • b
    yeah, very strange any chance you could send it?
  • b
    (or a repro)
  • f
    Humm tried to do a preop, and the repro works, going to explore my module and libs and remove them one by one.
  • f
    Oh I know, it's because I hade dce full
  • b
    ah, that makes sense i think then
  • f
    I always thought haxe ui animations worked strangely , sometimes when I tried them it seemd to work, sometimes not, I just thought I didn't really understand them , but maybe it was dce all along ☺️
  • f
    Oh awesome, just tried my app again, and my own growing animations actually work now
  • b
    It does! But it crashes when selecting certain folders. However, this crash was fixed in the past, so fixing again should be easy

    Ian I saw the post about TODO demo. Thinking a Hangman demo with scoreboard maybe a good demo if you have some simple graphics now.
  • b
    the "problem" with that is its not very "UI", i mean, its a decent enough test for the canvas, but what i dont want is to start promoting the canvas like its some "make your game" type thing (as its really just not the purpose of it)
  • b
    Is canvas just a bitmap underneath?
  • b
    nope, it uses a backend based impl, so for html5 is svg (or canvas), for openfl its graphics, etc, etc
  • b
    i see
  • o
    Do you have an XML grammar for the graphics yet.. a preferred specification.
  • o
    I remember using XAML in dev of a nokia music player, but it was million miles from designer pixel perfect... you had to hack it to implement real designs.
  • o
    maybe this is why I am not keen on xml for layout.. it just seems to fail in real projects to deliver like as3 graphics would
  • o
    in speed and pixel/vector control
  • o
    and in flexible ui control, layout and ui logic do not really work if they are coupled at the parent child level
  • o
    bubbling becomes a nightmare
  • i
    can you define a layout in XML and then include that as a component in another XML layout?
  • i
    like if I wanted an item list that I could include either in a dialogue box, and accessible from a different dialogue, without writing it twice
  • p
    yes. Heres a bit about it. You probably need to read the full page but this is the gist I use https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-guides/blob/master/custom-components.md#using-a-build-macro
  • p
    In the components there is some help also http://haxeui.org/explorer/#miscellaneous/custom_component
  • b
    Yeah, as hoseyhosey says, i think you are talking about custom components / views
