font looks rather light here, but really great stuff

ugh, i have an annoying bug i need to fix

feels like it's gonna be awful to find

my app crashes when you load certain filetypes, sometimes

!!!! Did you end up using SDFPainter?

@clever-yak-82528 you need to share specifics, no one can guess the issue from your post.

i believe they were just venting about an impending hard task 😄

i was

it's also almost certainly not a haxeui issue

i did, yeah - bunch of clean up to do now though

if found the most annoying wx api call:

virtual void SetAlignment (int align)

and

virtual void SetAlignment (wxAlignment align)=0

all good in cpp, but hxcpp hates it

works though, thats the important thing i guess

thats better 🙂

@full-journalist-82607 -i think you mentioned some issues with tableview, there certainly were a few (latest core and backend should fix)

Yeah, I'm sad it's not legal in haxe, to be honest, coming from a C++ background :D

yeah, defo a pain

And what's the precise problem? That it's overloaded, or...?

no, that enums are ints in cpp, but in hxcpp you need a extern class, which is then incompatible with int

or you can make them ints, which are then incompatible with the "wxAlign"

i went this route in the end: https://github.com/haxeui/hxWidgets/commit/fec0c5520dfe4134337906b5ceecb9fdccd433dc not ideal, but "alright"

hx
extern class NativeWxAlignment {}

abstract WxAlignment(NativeWxAlignment) {
  @:to function toInt():Int return cast this;
}

Something like this could help?

might do, i think i tried something like that though... ill have a play when i get a moment

@bright-gpu-74537 https://github.com/haxeui/haxeui-core/commit/1c4243d68008a8d81b607ddd9bd2f88d597f3da7 This commit causes the following behavior for me (heaps backend targeting hashlink): Dropdown components inside a property grid (property-group-header set to display:none) inside a Window close instantly when clicked on. Holding the mouse button down on a dropdown or repeatedly clicking it quickly throws > haxe/ui/core/ComponentValidation.hx:242: The syncValidation returned too many times during validation. This may be an infinite loop. Try to avoid doing anything that calls invalidate() during validation (haxe.ui.containers.ListView#null).

hmmm... i might have to revert and #if def that...

i was worried it might have a knock on effect somewhere

@ambitious-knife-25690 https://github.com/MSGhero/HaxeJam2023-Winter/blob/main/source/ui/elements/UI_Plant.hx

alright, done - latest haxeui-core

This is how I settled on UI for now. There’s a lot of boilerplate, but the majority is tying spritesheet animations to the components

That solves it! Thank you very much :)
