ah yeah. that might be causing it

02/19/2021, 10:43 PM

i think it only happens in classes where im using ComponentMacros

ive tried (and failed) to fix it a few times

02/19/2021, 10:43 PM

what ide are you using?

bright-gpu-74537

02/19/2021, 10:44 PM

it gets to a point though where i cant modify code to make an ide happy (not that i was ever able to)

bright-gpu-74537

02/19/2021, 10:44 PM

i use haxedevelop

powerful-gpu-52135

HD has its own quirks btw...

bright-gpu-74537

02/19/2021, 10:46 PM

but, for me personally, it works just as i need and does everything i need it to

powerful-gpu-52135

02/19/2021, 10:49 PM

its probably easier getting used to its quirks than not having auto completion

bright-gpu-74537

02/19/2021, 10:50 PM

possibly, my advice: take it for a spin and see how it feels

powerful-gpu-52135

02/19/2021, 10:50 PM

will do that

@User this loads a custom font in haxeui-heaps:

Copy code

private function createText():h2d.Text {
        var loader:Loader = hxd.Res.loader;
        return new h2d.Text(loader.load("fnt/Avdira.fnt").to(hxd.res.BitmapFont).toSdfFont(48));
    }

the font has to be in the res directory. Advira.fnt is an sdfFont

have you got the font file?

ok, so i have two more questions 1. is it possible to make the text of a label element selectable? 2. is

:hover

supported on any element (a vbox for example)? it doesnt seem to be working for me

bright-gpu-74537

1. generally, no, i think you can hack it on some backends - but nothing inbuild into haxeui... what backend are you using? 2. you might need to enable "pointer-events: true" (i cant remember the exact style)... which backend?

> New pointer-events style > Often you might want to get mouse events from a component that isnt an InteractiveComponent - this can now be achieved by using the new pointer-events style, it will now respond to style changes like :hover etc. Example here: http://haxeui.org/builder/?zjiycl

im using hxwidgets backend.

powerful-gpu-52135

02/20/2021, 11:00 PM

thanks i will try that

powerful-gpu-52135

it seems to be working but behaves strangely with smaller elements. hovers dont seem to register all the time and sometimes get stuck

powerful-gpu-52135

02/20/2021, 11:39 PM

i think i found the reason.

:hover

only registers in this zone

Copy code

xml
<hbox id="title" styleName="element-title">
  <image id="icon" styleName="label-icon" />
  <label id="labelName" styleName="label-name" text="name" />
</hbox>

powerful-gpu-52135

02/20/2021, 11:39 PM

Copy code

css
.element-title {
    pointer-events: true;
    background-color: #252526;
    width: 100px;
    height: 30px;
}

.element-title:hover {
    pointer-events: true;
    background-color: green;
}

if i add pointer events only to the label itself everything seems to be working fine
