    Ahhha yes
  • f
    He had his ipad setup but it didn't work, so we get fun mouse drawings 😛
  • c
    I apologize I kinda got busy right after saying that
  • c
    So I'm currently glossing over some use cases regarding HaxeUI and Flixel
  • c
    I'm not entirely sure how to use other inputs beside mouse, for instance keyboard and gamepad straight from HaxeUI
  • c
    Is it possible to use FlxActionManager with HaxeUI?
  • b
    good question, simple answer is i have no idea... never used action manager - what does it do?
  • c
    FlxActionManager works along with a second class called FlxAction which ultimately wraps mouse, keyboard and gamepad input into callable codenames. FlxAction like "Shoot" and "Jump" get triggered rather than grabbing input directly
  • c
    It helps with changing of controls and the use of dynamic control schemes
  • b
    interesting... so i think the simple answer is haxeui-flixel itself doesnt do anything special in that regard, but it sounds like it might be neat / needed - so when i get a moment ill have a play with actions and see how they could be better integrated... so i understand correctly, whats the use case? I mean, in an ideal world what would you expect / want haxeui-flixel to do with actions?
  • c
    Having the ability to define your own control scheme using a control layout screen, which defines the controls for interacting with HaxeUI elements. Up, down, left and right, accept and cancel FlxActions for simple menu movement, with hotkeys for moving between tabs (use case would be left and right bumpers on gamepad)
  • c
    In the ideal world, having an easy to implement UI system that is completely crossplatform, accepting multiple input devices and all using the same codebase. Each FlxAction can accept multiple input calls, it also supports touchscreen input as well. If we could wrap the HaxeUI library with FlxAction calls, it could be a massive game changer
  • c
    I also have another question
  • c
    Does HaxeUI support Firetongue?
  • h
    updated haxeui and started getting these errors, has something changed in 
    findComponent()
    ?
  • h
    Copy code
    Restarted Haxe server: DisplayArguments configuration was changed
Failed - try fixing the error(s) and restarting the language server:

  • c
    Are you able to check the source code of the class you're trying to implement from? I'd usually do a refraction check to see what variables and functions are defined and where
  • c
    @User
  • c
    Also
  • c
    Read the changelogs
  • c
    If I can't find where a variable or function is defined in a super class I would look through the source code of what the super class extends/implements from. Hence a refraction check
  • c
    That said
  • c
    You can't actually find the function
  • c
    So check on all possible name changes when flicking through the super class functions
  • c
    And don't forget to double check the params, they could have been updated
  • c
    Hope that helps
  • c
    I know it's not really the answer you're looking for since I'm still new but
  • c
    These are the things that I would do if I didn't know the answer
  • h
    my uninformed interpretation of the error would be that it seems like the 
    ScrollViewBuilder
    is expecting a 
    Component
    instead of 
    addClass("scrolling")
    , but I wouldn't know how to fix that
  • b
    thats weird
