[Solved]Player-adjustable bars

#1 Post by mjshi » Mon Dec 22, 2014 12:37 pm

Aah, it's been so long I forgot the contents of my own tutorial

Very simple question, I read up on ui.adjustment again, didn't quite understand it, realized that I deleted my working demo of an adjustable bar a few months ago, and came crawling back to the forums xD

How does one create a player-adjustable bar in the new-ish screen language?

Example please, should be fairly simple but I don't know how to define it within a screen:

Code: Select all

screen thebar:
    bar value VariableValue("barvariable", 100):
        xalign 0.0 yalign 0.0 
        xmaximum 400 
        ymaximum 15
        left_bar Frame("bar_full.png", 10, 0) 
        right_bar Frame("bar_full.png", 10, 0)
        thumb "thumb.png"
        left_gutter 100
        right_gutter 100
        thumb_shadow None
        adjustment ()

Code: Select all

bar value VariableValue("barvariable", 100)
This is enough to create a full screen-size, user adjustable bar that will work perfectly. There is no need for any functions like adjustment() or ui.adjustment() in screen language.

Ah xD Stupid question, I realized where the error was. The left_gutter and right_gutter values were too large and wouldn't allow the 400x15 slider to do any, well, sliding

Thank you for the help ^_^
