[Solved] Button list order recognition

[KuroOneHalf]

I'm honestly not sure how else to title this. Here's some sample code of the conundrum.

Say I have a stack of buttons like so:

Code: Select all

screen somescreen:
    vbox:
        for i in range(1, n):
            textbutton _(str(i)) action Function("printposition",x)
 
init -2 python:
    def printposition(x):
        print x

And when I press a button, like say the 3rd button from the top, I want the number corresponding to that button's order to be printed to the console - in this case the output to console would be "3". If I click the 7th from the top it prints "7", and so on.
The problem is how do I know the button's order when I click it? What is x?

This is meant to support arbitrarily long stacks of buttons, so I can't hack a solution for a fixed n amount.

Help figuring this out would be super appreciated!

Well, without knowing exact requirements and what are you trying to do, I would store a list of objects which contain some information about button and then do something like:

Code: Select all

class Button:
    __init__(self, text, action):
        self.text = text
        self.action = action

buttons = [ Button('button 1', 'dosomething'), Button('another button', 'dosomethingelse'),   . . .   ]

screen somescreen:
    vbox:
        for x, b in enumerate(buttons):
            textbutton b.text action [Function(b.action), Function("printposition", x)]

enumarate() totally did the trick. Thank you so much!
