07/27/2021, 1:31 PMopacity aint a thing in wx as far as i know - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:31 PMHmm I could just change colors myself I suppose - b

07/27/2021, 1:31 PMyou mean to fade a colour or something? - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:32 PMYeah, fake opacity (there's nothing behind, I'm not after transparency) - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/27/2021, 1:32 PMyeah, you'll have to fade that out yourself - b

07/27/2021, 1:32 PMlighten(...) / darken(...) might be a nice css functions... but that wont help you since you arent using css - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:33 PMI exposed some theme colors, I don't have much variation but should be fine for now (might look weird on other themes but I don't really care for now xD) - b

07/27/2021, 1:34 PMyou can get platform colours using css functions in haxeui (haxeui-hxwidgets only ofc)... but again, you'd have to be using an actual css file - b

07/27/2021, 1:35 PMCopy codecss .label { colour: platform-color(...); } - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:35 PMI exposed it from
, it's easy enough to use inPlatformstyleCopy codeclass Palette { public static var background(get, never):BackgroundPalette; static function get_background():BackgroundPalette return { window: Platform.instance.getColor("window"), frame: Platform.instance.getColor("frame-bk"), menu: Platform.instance.getColor("menu"), dark: Platform.instance.getColor("3d-shadow"), highlight: Platform.instance.getColor("highlight"), hotlight: Platform.instance.getColor("hotlight"), buttonHighlight: Platform.instance.getColor("btn-highlight"), }; public static var text(get, never):TextPalette; static function get_text():TextPalette return { window: Platform.instance.getColor("window-text"), caption: Platform.instance.getColor("caption-text"), gray: Platform.instance.getColor("gray-text"), highlight: Platform.instance.getColor("highlight"), hotlight: Platform.instance.getColor("hotlight"), }; } - b

07/27/2021, 1:36 PMOK, nice so you are using the wx native colours then - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:36 PMYeah I found that in hxwidgets :P - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:37 PMWell, many were duplicates in my theme or not defined at all so I only kept a handful - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/27/2021, 1:37 PMthe problem with exposing that to style directly is it certainly doesnt apply to all backends... its very backend specific - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/27/2021, 1:37 PMthats why its exposed via
in cssplatform-color(...); - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:38 PMIt's ok for now, this won't be multi platform any time soon - b
bright-gpu-74537
07/27/2021, 1:38 PMsure - u
user
07/27/2021, 1:38 PMAnd if it becomes i'll just modify this
to handle other backendsPalette - s
