01/27/2023, 7:29 AMthat is going to be quite tricky to add i think - b

01/27/2023, 7:29 AMmaybe you can implement your borders as rects... i do that in other backends as you get much nicer accuracy - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:29 AM(and it allows compound borders) - e

01/27/2023, 7:31 AMthe nodes that represent haxeui components only appear in the "remote" scene tree that you can look at while running the game in the editor, but they are drawn in the camera in both the editor and game window - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:31 AMright - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:32 AMcan you name the nodes to something custom rather than @@2, etc? - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:32 AMcould be useful to have "id#class" - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:32 AMshould be able to - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:33 AMit just gives nodes a default name like that when you add them at runtime - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:33 AMnice... im going to be making an external lib that will allow a debug tree, pretty much like what godot comes with, out the box 🙂 - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:35 AMright now i just draw 4 lines, following the
andborderSideSize
style properties for each sideborderSideColor - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:35 AMright, you might need to offset them by half the width then - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:35 AM... or use rects - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:36 AMyeah but either way they would "overlap" on the corners - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:36 AMyeah, you would also need to offset that based on the other sizes - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:36 AMwhich they actually already do somewhat - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:37 AM - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:39 AMso is this just an html thing then? - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:39 AMyeah, thats just the browser being super smart - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:40 AMnone of the other backends do that, they just change the size by solid pixels - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:40 AMso certain sides will "take priority" over others then for the corners? - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:42 AMyeah, there is no guide here either - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:42 AMjust kinda "do what you want" as long as it looks right 😄 - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:42 AMthere are few components that really use this, but certainly some - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:44 AMalso, imho, this is the sort of stuff you can come back to... there is alot more than compound borders at the stage you are at - b
bright-gpu-74537
01/27/2023, 7:45 AMthe fact you have children, fills and any border is enough (imo) to start with some of the other stuff... but ofc, how you write your backend its completely up to you 🙂 - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:45 AMwell i think the next big thing is text - e
elegant-twilight-61392
01/27/2023, 7:46 AMwhich should be easy if i could create a Label node without crashing the engine - b

01/27/2023, 7:46 AMagreed: * text display * images * gradient fills (optional) * event mapping * better CallLaterImpl (if not already done) * clipRects * text input
