    same errors appear for me when compiling the progressbars example from the haxeui-component-examples for neko as the error I see from compiling yours for neko
  • f
    so it may be something for Ian to take a look at.
  • b
    glad im not an idiot again 😁
  • f
    lol, i know the feeling

    How do I set the main window size on haxeui-hxwidgets?
  • f
    @User I'm not exactly sure if this may help, but figured i would post the link just in case. I'm not at all familiar with hxwidgets. https://community.haxeui.org/t/sizing-of-sub-children/174/12

    thanks for sharing that link, I've changed the initialization code from the docs a bit and managed to do it
  • n
    Copy code
    var app = new App();
        app.init();
        
        var frame:Frame = new Frame(null, "My App");
        frame.resize(460, 240);
        Toolkit.init({
            frame: frame // the frame on which 'Screen' will place components
        });

        Toolkit.screen.addComponent(new HaxeUiComponent());
        frame.show();
        app.run();
        app.exit();

    can we use 
    htmlText
    on labels? I don't get any results with it in hxWidgets (as if the label was just 
    ""
    instead of 
    <b>Html-like text</b>
    )
  • f
    @User Yes.

    if you are using haxeui-hxwdgets you dont really need all that boiler plate if you dont want, you can just use the HaxeUIApp and it will handle all of that for you - is there a reason why you want to init the frame yourself and start the event loop?
  • b
    thanks - looking now
  • b
    OK, should be working now in git version of haxeui-core
  • f
    @User I saw something you mentioned in a post i came across, i was trying to find the post again before I asked this, but cant seem to find the post again.... from the post though, I got the impression you were saying that it was possible with HaxeUI to read the input from say a joystick for example... is that correct?
  • b
    at the moment, its not no, but i have layed the foundation for it... just need to finalise it
  • b
    got alot of little things like that that need another day or two of work to bring them into the main branch
  • f
    awesome. looking forward to that, i can already think of a couple uses.
  • f
    One would be for controlling a camera on a servo controlled turret. The other would be for controlling a small rover robot for aggrivating my kids.
  • f
    Or chasing the cats
  • b
    how would the "action" input system help with that? I mean, the action system will be so you can perform actions on a haxeui from an external interface
  • b
    like a joystick, remote, tab / arrows / enter
  • f
    well.... the way i was picturing it, was... for example... monitoring and controlling a camera from an app created with haxeui.... using the arrow keys or the joystick to control the movement of the camera.
  • f
    control the rover remotely in similar manner seeing what it see from the haxeui app as well.
  • b
    if you wanted to use a haxeui to control and external thing, then you could do that now, i mean, "click a button to make the thing turn right"...
  • b
    ofc you could enhance that with a game pad or whatever by having that also call the same action
  • f
    true... and yeah, thats what caught my attention about the gamepad when I saw you had mentioned it in that post.
  • f
    i have a couple xbox controllers by my computers I have yet to put to use.
  • b
    yeah, i really need to get a controller too for testing
  • b
    i tried to get / use an emulator, but it was just a nightmare
