08/10/2021, 1:44 AMHello, so how do I add an image in HaxeUI? (specifically hxWidgets) - i

08/10/2021, 1:45 AMI've looked around IanHarrigan's example for the image but I can't quite wrap around the file paths - u

08/10/2021, 6:03 AMWhat's the preferred cross-backend ways to give focus to a component?
? (or any other way to accessScreen.instance.focus = myComponent
instance, likeScreen
) I mapped this one in my WIP PR to haxeui-hxwidgets (though only the setter is mapped for now..), but am I missing other places whereToolkit.screen
should be called?comp.window.setFocus() - u
user
08/10/2021, 6:22 AMAs for html5 native target, please keep it around :) it's the only html5 target variant I'd consider tbh - b

08/10/2021, 7:12 AMSo yeah, you'll either need to package the images as resources as klabz says, or you can use
orhttp://...file://... - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:13 AMyeah, i think
feels like the most sensible... i still need to give all this the once over (and add "actions")Screen.instance.focus = myComponent - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:14 AMOK, good to know... i do think ill move it to another lib though, it will be an extension of haxeui-html5 essnetially - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:14 AMSounds good to me! 🙂 - i

08/10/2021, 7:29 AMAh alright! I will try it whenever I got home. Thank you - i

08/10/2021, 7:32 AMOne more question, while using
, can I use relative paths?file:// - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:34 AMNo (edit: well technically it should be possible actually, but I don't suppose haxeui does all the heavy work to make it possible) - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:45 AMhmmm, if you cant use relative paths, then i would consider it a bug - ill check it out during my lunch break - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:45 AMrelatively useless to have to use absolute paths across computers - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:50 AMregardless though, i would consider looking into packaging as resources, its certainly "neater" and the images (or any resources) are packaged into the executable - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:50 AMYeah resources are great and easy to setup - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:51 AMdo you use haxeui modules for that? Or does coconut do something there? Or something you've made? - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:52 AMYeah I added a xml file just for that I do plan on trying another way someday, but my TODO list is long :P - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:53 AMgotcha... the resource part is pretty straight forward to be fair... only real difference than doing it with a bunch of --resource flags is that its recursive - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:53 AMYeah, I'll just hook into that with an init macro instead of xml file - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:54 AMShould be pretty easy - b
bright-gpu-74537
08/10/2021, 7:54 AM> but my TODO list is long 😛 do you use your TODO list app to keep a track of your TODO list? 🐶 🥫 - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:54 AMNot yet, only implemented recurring tasks for now xD - u
user
08/10/2021, 7:54 AMBut soon :P - i

08/10/2021, 7:59 AMah yes i agree it's better this way
