    only a year older

    vscode doesn't do this 👀
  • a
    it only uses what's added to the .hxml
  • b
    right, figured that it would be insane to index everything that is in haxelib
  • b
    then maybe it's the feathersUI plugin doing it....
  • b
    I'll have to look into that
  • b
    ah, that makes more sense
  • b
    I checked back. Feathers is just over a year older than HaxeUI. but originated in ActionScript3 with the Starling backend.
  • b
    Structure prototype complete. having a weird issue where the last line of text gets cut off, but I can fix that later. next step is to figure out how to theme it for a more "material dark" look.
  • b
    something like these examples
  • p
    I am curious how you came to those conclusions having not used it?
  • p
    Nevermind, I will try feathers and see what I see.

    I experimented with the example project and API reference for an hour,
  • b
    compared to the 8 hours so far I have spent working with haxeui

    How do I add a graphic to a button? I did 
    icon = "path/to/image.png"
    and it didn't work
  • b
    is it a file? Or is it a resource?
  • b
    It's a png file
  • b
    right, but are you trying to load it from the external file system? Or is it packaged inside your application?
  • b
    try: 
    button.icon = "file://path/to/image.png"
  • b
    its inside the application
  • b
    its in 
    Assets/images/menu/button.png
  • b
    does 
    button.icon = "Assets/images/menu/button.png"
    work? Is this flixel? Openfl?
  • b
    openFL
  • b
    and no it displays the default button texture
  • b
    can you zip up your project please? Or a test project if you cant share yours
  • b
    not using it rn, i probably did something wrong tho
  • b
    @User i have a nice suggestion for the 
    Color
    class - in the 
    fromString()
    method add a removal of punctuation marks & makingeverything lower case (pretty easy to do, about 3 lines of code). this will allow the function to also recive
