03/04/2023, 6:01 PMeither way, you've convinced me 🙂 While looking for a theme, ill make the search ignore case... so "dArK" would have also worked.... it makes more sense i think - s

03/04/2023, 6:02 PMnice! - s

03/04/2023, 6:08 PMfyi, i also think im going to fallback to the default theme (with a warning) if a theme you specified doesnt exist... at least then you'll see something - s

03/04/2023, 6:09 PMi think it makes sense... misspell a theme, or screw up the resources in a custom theme module.xml and boom... you see nothing except random labels - b

03/04/2023, 6:51 PMI wonder if that’s related to the cache issue I see every now and then where nothing gets drawn except for the labels - s

03/04/2023, 7:15 PMis there a way to make it so that the menubar doesn't close everytime you choose an option? - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/04/2023, 10:56 PMnot sure why a menubar menu wouldnt close when you selected an option, you can create lists and such that wont close, its kinda an abuse of menus, but perfectly valid: http://haxeui.org/explorer/#containers/menus - s

03/04/2023, 11:57 PMmight sound like a stupid question, but is there any way something like
to anonChange
?menuOptionBox - s

03/04/2023, 11:58 PMi was going to make it be recognized through an mouseEvent but that seemed to break it lol - s
square-angle-35096
03/04/2023, 11:59 PMor maybe that is because i was doing it in a stupid way - s

03/05/2023, 12:00 AMbut its hard to find haxeui projects to base myself on as i'm beginning with it - s

03/05/2023, 12:01 AMthe problem of the component playground thingy is that its mostly the layouts but they don't really show like a way to implement actions into most of the components - b

03/05/2023, 12:04 AMthats fair, doc / examples could certainly be better... its (mostly) a "one man" show, and its not like im working full time on it. To answer your question, you are probably looking for "menu selected" events: http://haxeui.org/api/haxe/ui/containers/menus/menuevent/ - b

03/05/2023, 12:12 AM... ... mebbe im too drunk to function, but this doesnt compile:

03/05/2023, 12:12 AMhuh - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/05/2023, 12:13 AMfeels perfectly reasonable. - b

03/05/2023, 12:53 AMMost of the documentation uses the
attribute but isn't the hscript deprecated?onchange - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/05/2023, 1:00 AMonchange has nothing to do with hscript... at compile time - b
bright-gpu-74537
03/05/2023, 1:01 AMat runtime... hmmmm, ill have to think, but at compile time onchange builds haxe code to register an event handler via macros - l
little-oxygen-79174
03/05/2023, 1:13 AMOh it actually translates it to an expression at compile time? Neat
