elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 1:34 AMif you run it, you can see each node - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 1:34 AMand you can hide them there and see it change in game - a

01/27/2023, 1:34 AMoh neat, so you get the best of both worlds - c

01/27/2023, 1:39 AM@bright-gpu-74537 awesome, just updated and that fixed it! relatedly, how am i supposed to clear out a treeview? clearNodes() seems to always throw an exception - a
ambitious-knife-25690
01/27/2023, 1:59 AMokay clipping messes up the splitter, no idea why it's just one splitter as well - a
ambitious-knife-25690
01/27/2023, 2:17 AMprobably the cleanest version i've got so far - a

01/27/2023, 2:42 AMI'm jealous, I'm still working on getting a simple quad up on the screen in the right place - m

01/27/2023, 2:42 AMAnd I think I'm pretty far away from that still - e

01/27/2023, 2:57 AMborders and opacity working - b

01/27/2023, 6:58 AMyikes, backends kicking off here yesterday... good stuff to wake up to! - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 6:58 AMi think once you get something onscreen though, all the other bits will just fall into place (ish)... also, we now have a resident "i write backends" experts 🥳 - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 6:59 AMi would have thought clearNodes, yeah... maybe its not linked up... i thought pretty much everything in treeview was linked up... ill check it out - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:02 AMthats really nice... so what does the code / xml look like for this example? Can you name nodes in godot? - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:07 AMoh, its in the screen shot 😄 - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:07 AMthe xml is just the skeleton test-app xml - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:08 AMand then i modified it to test border stuff but its in that other screenshot - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:09 AMvery cool stuff... theres actually quite alot goin on there from the xml, addComponent, % sizes, borders, opacity, etc... 👍 - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:11 AMare the borders supposed to be "inside" the thing they are a border of or should the line centered on the edge? - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:11 AMif that makes any sense - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:12 AMtechnically, its up to you, but realistically, the borders go "inside"... as i said to NotBilly who had the same question: dimentions are "golden" in haxeui, so a box with a size of 100x50 with with a 10px border the component should still be 100x50 (ie, no overdraw) - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:14 AMso not like this - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:14 AMideally not, no... - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:15 AMhaxeui doesnt enforce it (well, it couldnt) but certain controls will probably look strange that way - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:15 AMjust moving them based on the border size doesnt seem too hard but moving them based on each other would be more complex ofc - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:15 AMthey arent supposed to overlap either... you can have compound borders in haxeui also (and a few components, like tabbar, use it) - b

bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:22 AMso the sub nodes only show up in debug mode?
