Adding a toolbar of AISS icons

Hi,

I am trying to add a toolbar to the below program, the program started as clicktabexample.c and I am trying to add in functionality from imagebut.c.

I didn't get that far, can someone take a look at it please and post back.

Cheers

To create toolbars, use

To create toolbars, use speedbar.gadget, not a row of button.gadgets!

First you'll need to create a bitmap.image for each toolbar button:

Object *create_bitmap(struct Screen *scr, const char *sourcefile)
{
 return IIntuition->NewObject(NULL, "bitmap.image",
      BITMAP_SourceFile, sourcefile,
      BITMAP_Screen, scr,
      BITMAP_Masking, TRUE,
      TAG_DONE);
}

Then allocate an Exec list for the speedbar:

struct List *listSpeedBar;
listSpeedBar = (struct List *)IExec->AllocSysObjectTags(ASOT_LIST, TAG_DONE);

Then you must add the speedbar buttons. They are added as list nodes

add_sbar_node(listSpeedBar, 1, bitmap1);
add_sbar_node(listSpeedBar, 2, bitmap2);
add_sbar_node(listSpeedBar, 3, bitmap3);
etc., using the function below:

void add_sbar_node(struct List *list, uint16 id, Object *image)
{
 struct Node *node = NULL;
 
 if ( (node = ISpeedBar->AllocSpeedButtonNode(id,
        SBNA_UserData, id,
	SBNA_Image, image,
        SBNA_Enabled, TRUE,  // display button in speedbar
	SBNA_Spacing, 2,
	SBNA_Highlight, SBH_RECESS,
	TAG_DONE)) )
  {
   IExec->AddTail(list, node);
  }
 
}

Finally, you create the speedbar object:

speedbar = IIntuition->NewObject(NULL, "speedbar.gadget",
             GA_ID, GID_TOOLBAR,

I suppose that might work,

I suppose that might work, but AISS icons have a selected state as well (not just the recess), just check out the refresh button in OWB, the arrows change position.

But its a good start anyway.. gives me some progress.

Now gotta work out to add menus... not getting far with that either.

This is the code that I use

This is the code that I use in DiskImageGUI to load AISS images:

Hello, Okay I need a brave

Hello,

Okay I need a brave soul, I downloaded GUIDesigner by Tuomas Hokka.

http://www.os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=development/guitool/guidesigner.lha

And successfully built part of a GUI, but the program doesn't produce code as such just the XML layout of the buttons and such like. Now sadly the GUIDesigner doesn't allow me to add ClickTabs and numerous other things like Labels and File buttons.

I was hoping someone could download the .project files load them into GUIDesigner. hit the Create Code button and get them into a useable C source code that I can pick up and run with it. Not only that, I need some menus so need basic structure in there that I can go ahead and edit at well.

Also if someone can look at the layout files and replace where it says 'this should be a clicktab', 'this should be a label' etc etc etc

Yeah I know I am asking a lot, but if someone can do that for me - well that would be amazing helpful!!!

Okay so the project files, http://www.beaverpromotions.co.uk/smile.lha.

Wanted to hosted them on amigaos.net, but well I left the Mac at work and I haven't got an ftp client configured for sftp connections yet so the above link for now.

Once again, aside from GUIDesigner there is no decent Gui builder for OS4 and I can't wait for AVD so if you have an hour or two to devote to getting me up and running I would be truly grateful.

OR ALTERNATIVELY:

If you can import at least one layout from GUIDesigner to look the same in Emperor that would be just as impressive as I could take it from there, but alas I cannot not fathom Emperor out.. the layout all appears to be broken or at least in the preview window. :S

Cheers, Rick.

@djrikki

I've never used GUIDesigner so I can't help you with that, but if you just need example source on how to create and use labels, file buttons and clicktabs then SRec GUI has all of those and you are free to browse and download its source code on sourceforge.net (the part that would probably be of most interest to you would be the CreateSRecGUI function):
http://srec.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/srec/src/gui.c?revision=1&view=markup

BTW your project files link doesn't work as there's an extra dot ('.') at the end of the url.

Sorry yeah the url is http://www.beaverpromotions.co.uk/smile.lha

Salass00, GUIDesigner is a tiny program, when you a load project in it and hit the Create Code button it outputs the code to RAM Disk. It takes less than 5 minutes to look at it.

Basically its just the pure structure ya know, Add_Child blah blah Layout_Orientation = HORIZ... all that stuff.

I will take a look at source code you mentioned as well.

I've actually returned to

I've actually returned to Emperor and had a lot of success this evening once I started toggling with the Fixed Height and Width Layout buttons for Horiz/Vert Layout objects. They solved the problem I was having.

But a new problem has arrised, best show you a screen shot.

IMAGE(http://www.beaverpromotions.co.uk/emperorproblem_text.jpg)

Click here for image

I have a Click Tab with 3 pages called 'Top Level Tabs' in the structure - Feeds, Images and Items.

I can access the Feeds page just fine, but when I click on the tab of the other pages its not showing anything!!! I feel I've already tried every combination under the sun.

Here is the project file that you can load straight into Emperor and see what I mean.

@ salass00

Have you taken a look at the project yet in Emperor to see where I am going wrong? Kas1e says your a bit of an expert at Reaction layouts, and well we know he is personally busy with MUI-OWB.

I'm afraid you're going wrong in trying to use half-baked GUI builders no one really uses :-)

This bit caught my eye:

vertical page Images
horizontal page 8
vertical layout 11
Items toolbar
Listbrowser 1

What are the two page objects here? They are not both page.gadgets, are they? Why would you put a page inside a page in such a simple layout?

If I have followed the instructions in Emperor.guide correctly, this was necessary to get the ClickTabs working.

AFAIK you only associate one page.gadget with a clicktab.gadget. The individual pages under the tabs are layouts, not page.gadgets.

It's possible that Emperor hides this detail from the user. At least I couldn't find any way to create page gadgets with it.

Yes, that's possible. This is why it's quite difficult to give advice if you don't know what's going on inside Emperor.

@djrikki

If I interpret your example you have done it like this:

Top Level Tabs (clicktab)
|
+- vertical page Feeds
|  |
|  +- ...
|  +- ...
|
+- vertical page Images
|  |
|  +- ...
|  +- ...
|
+- vertical page Items
   |
   +- ...
   +- ...

but if I read the Guides/ClicktabExample.README! I would do it like:

Top Level Tabs (clicktab)
|
+- vertical page Group
   |
   +- vertical page Feeds
   |  |
   |  +- ...
   |  +- ...
   |
   +- vertical page Images
   |  |
   |  +- ...
   |  +- ...
   |
   +- vertical page Items
      |
      +- ...
      +- ...

I have no OS4, so I can't try it out but you can.
