I'm missing something I'm sure - how do I display text that you can cut and paste, copy but not edit ? All the text widgets appear to be changeable except Label which isn't selectable.

cut and paste without editing?

well not paste into

actually not cut either

fair enough

copy

oops

there is defo a property missing here, all labels are not selectable on purpose originally, but ive come to realise that might have been a dumb decision, so a "selectable" needs to be implemented, i think most backends will support it

Ian do you have a generic library that checks xml is valid if compiled in?

I mean against typedef's or something?

ok so if you think you'll add such a thing I'll just use label for static text display. Do they support word-wrapping ? The option would be readonly textarea's which I think would, right ?

like a xml2object or something (like json2object)... i dont, no, but it would be useful

yeah, label is the right choice here, and yeah, ill defo add selectable at some point... you can always do it yourself now by accessing the underlying textfield (openfl in your case i believe):

myLabel.getTextDisplay().tf

(that will be an openfl text field, so you should just be able to set properties on that)

oh cool - didn't realize that - will give that a go - thx

Ian did you see I have now added some repeat texture support to my pixelimage lib. Can now do a rounded rectangle similar to how excel patterns work and can do it with an xml node ( names need improvement ) .. suspect may need to add some reflection image or sequence code to allow all patterns, unsure. But the concept of an array pattern image is quite fun. It is a pixel library so would work on all your targets if not too heavy. The repeat fill is implemented on a base triangle so can be used with all shapes, need to add the xml nodes for others.

that's 500 % size for my html demo

the pattern is just an attribute backPatternFill="[true,true,false,false]"

but as I said unsure if currently can easily add all excel like patterns with only a few terms, may need to complicate by propogating reflectioTileX and reflectionTileY properties though all structures and no offset or non repeat currently

touched excel for first time in over a decade recently and the pattern cells aspect interested me.

probably won't have time to tidy up but the rectangle example is checked in

hence my interest in xml being a pain to properly type!

Looking good Nanjizal

I believe i am close to having this working, but I am failing to see something. Could someone point out what I am doing wrong or missing, in getting this slider to adjust the grayscale of the image. http://haxeui.org/builder/?96108954

I was thinking you needed but I tried adding filter CSS and it didn't work

in the xml if I add style="filter: grayscale(50);" it'll work that way. But getting the slider to adjust the value has me baffled.

this'll work, but honestly, i dont like it: http://haxeui.org/builder/?94ec1eeb

(i dont like building up a styleString, it should be possible to do it with

customStyle

directly, but its all enums, so it might be even more verbose)

Thank you Ian. I'll play around with customStyle a bit and learn about it today.

heres another, possibly better (?) alt: http://haxeui.org/builder/?f5bc150c
