[SOLVED] Getting XListBox working ?

[Guest]

Hello everyone,

 

May someone explain how to get the XListBox working correctly ?

 

Like this

https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/DialogControls-ListBoxes#RscXListBox

 

I can't get it working. I always get strange black boxes, or boxes that take the middle of the screen where I can only see the border. That's strange. If anyone has a dialog which is working.

 

Thank you.

I tried with the ctrlCreate function and I get two giant arrows in front of my screen. Changing height and width does not change a thing.

 

Again if anyone can explain me how can I get it working I will be very thankfull.

 

Thank you

I'll paste my code for this type of ListBox. It works exactly like your image so it should be good:

 

Dialog.hpp:

class WSGUIArmory_Controls: RscXListBox
		{
			idc = 1500;
			onLBSelChanged = "_this call ui_pageChange;";
			x = 0.5 * GUI_GRID_W + GUI_GRID_X;
			y = 1.5 * GUI_GRID_H + GUI_GRID_Y;
			w = 37.5 * GUI_GRID_W;
			h = 1 * GUI_GRID_H;
		};

Defines.hpp:

class RscXListBox
{
	access = 0;
	idc = CT_XLISTBOX;
	type = CT_XLISTBOX;
	style = SL_HORZ + ST_CENTER + LB_TEXTURES;
	default = 0;
	blinkingPeriod = 0;
	x = 12 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_W + GUI_GRID_CENTER_X;
	y = 17 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_H + GUI_GRID_CENTER_Y;
	w = 10 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_W;
	h = 1 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_H;
	color[] = {1,1,1,1};
	colorActive[] = {1,1,1,1};
	sizeEx = "(((((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 1.2) / 25) * 1)";
	font = "PuristaMedium";
	shadow = 0;
	colorText[] = {1,1,1,1}; // Text color
	colorSelect[] = {1,1,1,1}; // Selected text color
	colorDisabled[] = {1,1,1,0.5}; // Disabled text color
	tooltip = ""; // Tooltip text
	tooltipColorShade[] = {0,0,0,0}; // Tooltip background color
	tooltipColorText[] = {1,1,1,0}; // Tooltip text color
	tooltipColorBox[] = {1,1,1,0}; // Tooltip frame color
	arrowEmpty = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\arrowEmpty_ca.paa"; // Arrow
	arrowFull = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\arrowFull_ca.paa"; // Arrow when clicked on
	border = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\border_ca.paa"; // Fill texture
	soundSelect[] = {"\A3\ui_f\data\sound\RscListbox\soundSelect",0.09,1};
};

Thank you very much but nothing shows up on my screen.
 
I got this error with your control

Error loading control C:\Users\Harmdhast\Documents\Arma 3\missions\StartingMenu.Altis\description.ext/dialog_MyDialog/controls/WSGUIArmory_Controls/

EDIT: I managed to get it working but I don't have any arrows and I can't fill the list with lbAdd.

[Guest]

I tried this code to fill my listbox

{
	_ctrl = _x;
	{
		_ctrl lbAdd getText (_x >> "displayName");
		_ctrl lbSetPicture [_foreachindex,getText (_x >> "texture")];
		_ctrl lbSetTooltip [_foreachindex,getText (_x >> "displayName")];
	} forEach ("isClass _x" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgRanks"));
	_ctrl lbSetCurSel 0;
} forEach  [_CT_XLISTBOX];

From here https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/List_BoxI named my control _CT_XLISTBOX but nothing shows

 

The control spawns without arrows and disabled, if I enable it it just turns from grey to dark.

 

When it's enbaled I can press invisble arrows and I hear the sound.

Adding things to the list whan enabled or disabled does not change a thing

Here's what your dialog should look like and the dialogInit.sqf is where you use lbAdd.

 

class RscXListBox
{
	access = 0;
	idc = CT_XLISTBOX;
	type = CT_XLISTBOX;
	style = SL_HORZ + ST_CENTER + LB_TEXTURES;
	default = 0;
	blinkingPeriod = 0;
	x = 12 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_W + GUI_GRID_CENTER_X;
	y = 17 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_H + GUI_GRID_CENTER_Y;
	w = 10 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_W;
	h = 1 * GUI_GRID_CENTER_H;
	color[] = {1,1,1,1};
	colorActive[] = {1,1,1,1};
	sizeEx = "(((((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 1.2) / 25) * 1)";
	font = "PuristaMedium";
	shadow = 0;
	colorText[] = {1,1,1,1}; // Text color
	colorSelect[] = {1,1,1,1}; // Selected text color
	colorDisabled[] = {1,1,1,0.5}; // Disabled text color
	tooltip = ""; // Tooltip text
	tooltipColorShade[] = {0,0,0,0}; // Tooltip background color
	tooltipColorText[] = {1,1,1,0}; // Tooltip text color
	tooltipColorBox[] = {1,1,1,0}; // Tooltip frame color
	arrowEmpty = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\arrowEmpty_ca.paa"; // Arrow
	arrowFull = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\arrowFull_ca.paa"; // Arrow when clicked on
	border = "\A3\ui_f\data\gui\cfg\slider\border_ca.paa"; // Fill texture
	soundSelect[] = {"\A3\ui_f\data\sound\RscListbox\soundSelect",0.09,1};
};



class mydialog {
	idd = -1; 
	onLoad = "[_this] execVM 'dialogInit.sqf'";                     // set to -1, because we don't require a unique ID
	movingEnable = false;           // the dialog can be moved with the mouse (see "moving" below)
	enableSimulation = false;      // freeze the game
	controlsBackground[] = { };    // no background controls needed
	objects[] = { };               // no objects needed
	 // our "Hello world" text as seen below:
	class controls 
	{
		class _CT_XLISTBOX: RscXListBox
		{
			idc = 300;
			x = 0.2;
			y = 0.44;
			w = 0.575;
			h = 0.08;
		};
	};
};

Here's the dialogInit.sqf example:

disableSerialization;

_display = _this select 0 select 0;

// Controls
_pageSel = _display displayCtrl 300;

// 0
_index = _pageSel lbAdd "Loadouts";

// 1
_index = _pageSel lbAdd "Attachments";

Thanks a lot buddy, you made my day.

[jts_2009 96]

Anyone got solution for today? Because it's still not working. I tried these definitions from here, then from official bis wiki and then from config viewer, where I found the menu of game settings. In game settings it works, but it doesn't work elsewhere. Wtf?. So I would say it's just broken..?
