vrakpant 11 Posted March 2, 2016 *SOLVED*Solution in my second postHi! I've been playing around with dialogs for the first time recently, and I've ran in to an issue trying to create markers in a MapControl dialog.Dialog.hpp class TABLET_MAP: rscMapControl { idc = -1; maxSatelliteAlpha = 0; onMouseZChanged = ""; onMouseButtonDown = ""; x = 0.306235 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.269598 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.388615 * safezoneW; h = 0.387171 * safezoneH; }; class tablet_arty: RscButton { idc = 1600; text = "Request Artillery"; //--- ToDo: Localize; x = 0.304069 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.666063 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.0824972 * safezoneW; h = 0.0659852 * safezoneH; }; class tablet_extraction: RscButton { idc = 1601; text = "Call Extraction"; //--- ToDo: Localize; x = 0.614052 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.666063 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.0824972 * safezoneW; h = 0.0659852 * safezoneH; }; class tablet_reinforcements: RscButton { idc = 1602; text = "Reinforcements"; //--- ToDo: Localize; x = 0.458442 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.666063 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.0824972 * safezoneW; h = 0.0659852 * safezoneH; }; class vrak_frame: RscFrame { idc = 1800; x = 0.298913 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.236059 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.402174 * safezoneW; h = 0.516884 * safezoneH; }; which nets me this result: Where I'm at a loss is how I make the MapControl read the _pos of my cursor and create a marker there, I have an addaction running the script mark.sqfmark.sqf createDialog "tablet_dialog"; mapclick = false; onMapSingleClick " deleteMarkerLocal 'marker1'; _marker= createMarkerLocal ['marker1',[0,0,0]]; _marker setMarkerColorLocal 'ColorRed'; _marker setMarkerShapeLocal 'ELLIPSE'; _marker setMarkerBrushLocal 'Solid'; _marker setMarkerSizeLocal [1000, 1000]; 'marker1' setMarkerPos _pos; mapclick = true; true"; waitUntil{!visibleMap}; onMapSingleClick ""; The dialog opens, but nothing happens when I click it. If I exchange createDialog "tablet_dialog"; with openMap true; it works like a charm, so I suspect I'm using the wrong command, I'd be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction!

vrakpant 11 Posted March 2, 2016 Yep! I was completely off. I had to define OnMouseButtonClicked in my TABLET_MAP class to call mark.sqf class TABLET_MAP: rscMapControl { idc = -1; maxSatelliteAlpha = 0; onMouseZChanged = ""; onMouseButtonDown = ""; onMouseButtonClick = "_this execvm 'mark.sqf'"; x = 0.306235 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.269598 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.388615 * safezoneW; h = 0.387171 * safezoneH; }; And use ctrlMapScreenToWorld to define the position in mark.sqfmark.sqf _position = _this select 0 ctrlMapScreenToWorld [ (_this select 2), (_this select 3) ]; deleteMarkerLocal 'marker1'; _marker= createMarkerLocal ['marker1',[0,0,0]]; _marker setMarkerColorLocal 'ColorRed'; _marker setMarkerShapeLocal 'ELLIPSE'; _marker setMarkerBrushLocal 'Solid'; _marker setMarkerSizeLocal [10, 10]; "marker1" setMarkerPos _position; You always figure it out a few minutes after posting! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
