- I think I've fixed a long standing problem with clicks traveling through windows and bringing the dialog window underneath to the foreground.
- Added /sim/gui/dialogs/current-dialog that contains the name of the currently active (in front) dialog window.
- Changed dialog-open to bring a dialog to the front if it is already open.
Calls to updateValues can cause nested calls invalidating
the char* passed as argument, if retrieved from a
SGPropertyNode.
Probably SGPropertyNode should also be modified to return
a std::string instead of a pointer to an internal buffer.
Supports various new editing features, including dragging to re-order, and
+/- keys to adjust the target altitude for a waypoint. Also displays some
additional information, and will display *even* more once I land airways/
SID/STAR support.
- this exposed a bizarre issue on Mac where dragging in <AGL/agl.h> in
extensions.hxx was pulling in all of Carbon to the global namespace
- very scary. As a result, I now need to explicitly include CoreFoundation
in fg_init.cxx.
- change SG_USING_STD(x) to using std::x
Unfortunately, there's no simple way to distinguish them. plib has no
user defined widget classes, and getTypeString() -- which could be used
for that -- isn't virtual. Sigh. I'll discuss the problem on the plib list.
For now I can only offer an ugly workaround. (Don't look closely!)
- PropertyObject: remove additional "values" member again
- don't create entry lists for <list>, <select>, and <combo> at dialog
creation and delete them on dialog close, but let a separate class
fgValueList handle this. The three widgets are now subclassed and the
derived widget lets fgValueList manage the lists
- make <select> consistent with <list>. This breaks backwards
compatibility, but not a single dialog in fgfs uses it and did so
since ... forever. (Shoot me!)
Rationale: now that dialogs are a bit more dynamic than they used to be
(thanks to embedded Nasal), we have to delete and recreate entry lists
during dialog use. Deleting only at dialog closing doesn't cut it anymore.
Especially list widgets that are updated several times per second would
use up a lot of memory otherwise. The route-manager doesn't update that
often, but it did already leak. One TODO less. :-)
only used by the <list> widget. It allows to "dialog-update" the list,
which rescans the <value> children and redraws the list widget with new
contents. The old contents are only freed at dialog close, which should
eventually get changed.
two almost identical functions for these methods. It only forces to repeat
the redundancy for every small change to either.
- abstract out generation and destruction of plib string arrays
- abstract out generation of lists from <value> children

<open>print("I'm called on dialog open")</open>
<close>print("I'm called on dialog close")</close>

All Nasal runs in a dialog namespace, so that variables and functions
defined in the <open> block can be used in <binding>s, etc. This is
especially useful for <radio> button handling. See "location-in-air.xml".
to other color than "Yeukky Pink"; #undef'ed for older plib versions; plib
patch will be made available in case fgfs 0.9.9 is released before plib 0.8.5
property (e.g. <keynum>49</keynum>). The numbers are the same as in
keyboard.xml. (Could later be replaced/enhanced with <key>Ctrl-a</key>
notation.) This does, of course, only work for widgets with assigned
bindings.
The dialog handling has been written at a time when only one dialog was
shown at the same time, and dialogs were shallow -- with only children, but
no grand-children. This makes finding a draggable spot on modern, dialogs
with nested objects quite a challenge. The patches fixes this, and other things:
- check full object tree on button press, not only the outmost layer;
and don't give up just because we are in *something* (which could well be
something harmless, like a group); only ignore a few, sensible objects
(we don't want to drag after a click on a button or into an input field)
- don't lose dialogs as easily when dragging too fast (it does still happen
if one manages to enter an editable field while dragging, but this is
a plib problem and I don't feel like fixing that now :-)
- don't "live"-update input fields while they are in edit mode
- remove some "if (foo) delete foo;" redundancy
little larger.
The text widget can now be meaningfully associated with a property; in
PUI, it's "value" isn't the same thing as its label, but we can hack
things to treat them symmetrically.
Commit an experimental "live" property that can be set on widgets to
cause them to update their values every frame. This works great for
text widgets, as above. Note that this synchronization is input-only:
no support is provided (or needed -- the GUI only changes when the
user does something) for writing those properties out every frame.
for a while, it turned out to be pretty easy to implement. Also, the
property picker is now non-modal, I presume the modality wasn't an
intentional feature.
scene management code and organizing it within simgear. My strategy is
to identify the code I want to move, and break it's direct flightgear
dependencies. Then it will be free to move over into the simgear package.
- Moved some property specific code into simgear/props/
- Split out the condition code from fgfs/src/Main/fg_props and put it
in it's own source file in simgear/props/
- Created a scene subdirectory for scenery, model, and material property
related code.
- Moved location.[ch]xx into simgear/scene/model/
- The location and condition code had dependencies on flightgear's global
state (all the globals-> stuff, the flightgear property tree, etc.) SimGear
code can't depend on it so that data has to be passed as parameters to the
functions/methods/constructors.
- This need to pass data as function parameters had a dramatic cascading
effect throughout the FlightGear code.
Fix memory leaks (PUI doesn't make copies of lists, so we have to make
our own copies and keep pointers to them).
Adjust for new method names in NewGUI.
Move the GUIInfo struct into the cxx file so that it's not part of the
public interface.
