Hover Quick Menu

#1 Post by Godline »

Hey,
almost figured it out.

It doesn't close on 'hover' though. It has to be clicked. So if anyone knows a workaround for that please post and help.

This is how Sayumi101 figured it out:


screen quick_menu():
imagebutton idle "gui/shell close.png" hover "gui/shell open.png" selected_hover "gui/shell open.png" selected_idle "gui/shell open.png" xpos 1095 ypos 450 focus_mask True hovered ShowTransient ("togglemenu") clicked ShowTransient ("togglemenu")

screen togglemenu():

add "gui/shell open.png" xpos 1095 ypos 450

imagemap:
alpha False
xpos 1095
ypos 450
ground "gui/shell menu.png"
hover "gui/shell menu hov.png"
#idle "gui/shell menu hov.png"
#selected_idle "gui/shell menu hov.png"

hotspot (67, 26, 68, 38) action Skip(),Hide("togglemenu")
hotspot (69, 64, 65, 33) action Preference("auto-forward", "toggle"),Hide("togglemenu")
hotspot (62, 102, 76, 37) action ShowMenu("preferences"),Hide("togglemenu")

If someone else doesn't come along with a better solution - couldn't you just duplicate your shell open and merge the words onto them, so your image and text would be one? then you'd only have three images your shell closed plus the idle and hover which may make it work? hopefully that makes some sort of sense :? :oops: or somebody else can come along and offer a better solution for you :)

Yeah, I did play around with that. But I still didn't get it working. Bah!
