    Yeah it does smell. Hahahah, the only logic I need would be looping for a static number of times, but anyway, CTRL+C, CTRL+V works fine for me. I was just wondering if you had something ready 🙂
  • m
    Maybe there even a smarter way of doing what I'm attempting to do. I was a 6 x 3 grid of bordered squares. So I'm using and to do that, but for that I need 18 boxes.
  • m
    Besides I can always use code 🙂
  • m
    I just wondered if there was any xml way because everything is static in my example.
  • b
    i cant think of a better xml way than a bunch of components... one thing i probably would do is give them shared style name so you can style them all at the same time
  • p
    can i use custom fonts on hxwidgets backend? i havent found any examples covering it.
  • b
    im not sure actually, not sure ive ever tried... dont even know how fonts work on wxwidgets tbh
  • p
    thank you anyway. might switch to openfl backend.
  • b
    fair enough... you should be able to flip between them if you arent using anything specific to either of them (a so called "pure haxeui app")
  • b
    ill take a look at fonts sometime this week though for hxwigets... im sure most of the classes are there, its going to be being able getting them from haxe resources... but i did it with images, so i presume it will be similar
  • p
    cool thanks.
  • b
    @User - so fonts (from ttfs) in wxwidges really arent that simple, they have to be files and they its only available on wx > 3.1
  • b
    do you mean totally custom fonts (from ttf resources) or do you mean fonts that are already installed on the system?
  • p
    using a font that is already installed should be fine
  • b
    oh... thats a different thing entirely then! 🙂 ill have a play later but that should be 100% doable... maybe its not exposed to haxeui-hxwidgets well / correctly / at all
  • m
    @User is the haxeui-skeleton basically up to date?
  • b
    should be, you mean the skeleton for a backend?
  • m
    yes, that is the one
  • b
    it should be...
  • m
    thanks
  • b
    what kinda backend you thinking about??
  • m
    I've been working on a custom engine
  • b
    right... what does it render to? GL?
  • m
    OpenGL / Vulkan which will suit my needs - I had playing around with it while I was looking at getting a SDF font working. I guess I could hard code the font into the heaps backend but there still seems to be issues with Haxe 4.2 and heaps right now
  • b
    yeah, i dont think heaps is 4.2 ready yet
  • b
    i havent looked at the fonts you sent yet, but im going to look at wxFonts later, so since its in the same vein ill look then
  • m
    ah yes, I was thinking about how multiple fonts could be handled also in heaps. I use two different ones since some of the UI looks better with a SANS font like roboto or arial
  • p
    👍
  • b
    ok, there you go... so in wxwidgets there is an enum that is fonts that can be used across platforms (font families) and fonts that can be used that are installed on the system (font faces)
  • b
    haxeui doesnt care so much, it just reserves: default, decorative, roman, script, swiss, modern, teletype and assumes them to be font families, anything else is assumed to be a font face
