[solved] GUI Widgets question

[burgelkat]

Hallo,

I am experimenting with widgets. I don't know  what I'm doing wrong here.
A single button as described in the documentation works very well. But if I want to use more buttons, it doesn't respond.


What am I doing wrong?

i hope someone can help

function Script:Start()
self.close=false
self.conservation2=false

if self.event.source == self.btnStart then

elseif event.source == self.btnOptions then 

elseif self.event.source = self.btnExit then 

end

thanks for the replay .. i think i should explain a little better.

 

this ist the working script, but only with one button

function Script:Start()
self.close=false
self.conservation2=false
end
-----------------------Conservation--------------------------


function Script:StartConservation()--in
	System:Print("Conservation")
	self:Conservation1()

end

function Script:Conservation1()

	Talkingpanel=gui

	System:Print("TextShow")
	local Talkingpanel={}
	local scale = 1
	--GUI

	local gui = GUI:Create(context)

	Talkingpanel.gui=gui
	Talkingpanel.context = context


	Talkingpanel = Widget:Panel(gui:GetBase():GetClientSize().x/2+150,gui:GetBase():GetClientSize().y/2-300,500,600,gui:GetBase())
	Talkingpanel:SetAlignment(0,0,0,0)
	Talkingpanel.Talkingpanel=Talkingpanel
	Talkingpanel=Talkingpanel
	local widget 
	widget = Widget:Tabber(indent,indent,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().x-indent*2,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().y-indent*2,Talkingpanel)
	widget:AddItem("Old Man",true)

	x=30
	y=60

	Talkingpanel:SetObject("backgroundcolor",Vec4(0.15,0.15,0.15,1))

	Talkingpanel.tabber = widget

	local indent = 12
	Talkingpanel = Widget:Panel(indent,indent,widget:GetClientSize().x-indent*2,widget:GetClientSize().y-indent*2-30,widget)
	Talkingpanel = Widget:TextArea(x,y,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().x-indent*2-50,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().y-indent*2-300,Talkingpanel)
	---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	--------------------------------------------Dialog 1-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
	
	
	Talkingpanel:SetText("Mhm? What do you want from me?")	
	
	
	Talkingpanel:SetBool("border",true)
	
	Talkingpanel.panel={}
	Talkingpanel.panel.general=panel

	--Talkingpanel.btnClose = Widget:Button("Close",widget:GetClientSize().x-72-indent,widget:GetClientSize().y-28-5,72,28,widget)
	--Talkingpanel.btnClose:SetStyle(BUTTON_CANCEL)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


	local y=20
	local sep=40

while true do
	Time:Update()						
	window:ShowMouse()

        if window:Closed() then return end
        --if window:KeyHit(Key.Escape) then return end
	----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	        
        while EventQueue:Peek() do
			local event = EventQueue:Wait()
				if event.id == Event.WidgetAction then
					System:Print("Conservation2")
					self.conservation2=true
				return end				
		end	 		
        context:Sync()		
	end
	
end

 

so with one button its no problem.

i really try now to understand how it function with more then one button . becaus this event is for all buttons in the script.

so i search some posts and look into menu.lua  to understand. but if i try to do the same, the button have no reacton

this is the code ( i cleaned it a little)

function Script:Start()
self.close=false
self.conservation2=false
end
-----------------------Conservation--------------------------


function Script:StartConservation()--in
	self:Conservation1()
	System:Print("Conservation")
	--self.component:CallOutputs("Conservation")
	
end

function Script:Conservation1()

	local Talkingpanel={}
	local scale = 1
	--GUI

	local gui = GUI:Create(context)
	--Talkingpanel.context = context


	Talkingpanel = Widget:Panel(gui:GetBase():GetClientSize().x/2+150,gui:GetBase():GetClientSize().y/2-300,500,600,gui:GetBase())
	Talkingpanel:SetAlignment(0,0,0,0)
	Talkingpanel.Talkingpanel=Talkingpanel
	Talkingpanel=Talkingpanel
	local widget 
	widget = Widget:Tabber(indent,indent,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().x-indent*2,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().y-indent*2,Talkingpanel)
	widget:AddItem("Old Man",true)
	
	x=30
	y=60


	Talkingpanel:SetObject("backgroundcolor",Vec4(0.15,0.15,0.15,1))

	Talkingpanel.tabber = widget

	local indent = 12
	Talkingpanel = Widget:Panel(indent,indent,widget:GetClientSize().x-indent*2,widget:GetClientSize().y-indent*2-30,widget)
	Talkingpanel = Widget:TextArea(x,y,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().x-indent*2-50,Talkingpanel:GetClientSize().y-indent*2-300,Talkingpanel)
	---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	--------------------------------------------Dialog 1-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
	
	
	Talkingpanel:SetText("Mhm? What do you want from me?")	
	
	Talkingpanel:SetBool("border",true)
	
	Talkingpanel.panel={}
	Talkingpanel.panel.general=panel

	Talkingpanel.btnClose = Widget:Button("Close",widget:GetClientSize().x-72-indent,widget:GetClientSize().y-28-5,72,28,widget)
	Talkingpanel.btnClose:SetStyle(BUTTON_CANCEL)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	Talkingpanel.btnConservation1 = Widget:Button("Who am i?",widget:GetClientSize().x-450-indent,widget:GetClientSize().y-250,72,28,widget)
	Talkingpanel.btnConservation1:SetStyle(BUTTON_CANCEL)


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
	local y=20
	local sep=40


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 while true do
	Time:Update()						
	window:ShowMouse()
        if window:Closed() then return end
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	        

function Talkingpanel:ProcessEvent(event)
	if event.id == Event.WidgetAction then
			if self.event.source == self.btnClose then
					self:ProcessEvent(Event(Event.WidgetAction,self.btnClose))
					System:Print("WidgetAction")
					self.component:CallOutputs("LostAttention")						
					Talkingpanel.btnClose:Hide() 
					window:FlushMouse()
					window:FlushKeys()
					window:HideMouse()
					window:SetMousePosition(window:GetWidth()/2,window:GetHeight()/2)
					gui:Hide()
					widget:Hide()
			end
	end
end
	
function Talkingpanel:Update()
	if self.btnClose:GetText()=="Close" then
		self:ProcessEvent(Event(Event.WidgetAction,self.btnClose))
	end
	
	while EventQueue:Peek() do
		self.event = EventQueue:Wait()
		if self:ProcessEvent(event)==false then return false end
	end
	return true
	end
	context:Sync()
end		
end

the Widget show up with buttons but if i click on the button. nothing happens. I cleand this code to only one Event becaus if the Event Close

function, i think i understand and the other buttons will function too.

 

i hope really someone understand me and can help me here
