Morten's ArmA Dialog Designer

[MulleDK19 21]

I get an error when using listbox and comboboxes.

When i get ingame i see: no entry ...missiondir\description.ext/generator/scrollbar.cc

Where cc is the reference to the name of the combobox.

Please upload the associated dialog (un-builded).

It's basically saying that the control cc (the combobox) is missing required parameter: scrollbar

Well basicly i am aware of that but its about problems that appear when using the results from the tool right?

Can this program do Dialog Control Map? As in: http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Dialog_Control_Map

I've tried to manually add the class to class.madd file in the MADD format, but I'm unsure how to add the "embedded" map item classes found in that example.

Also, the lines:

stickX = {0.20, {"Gamma", 1.00, 1.50} }; 
stickY = {0.20, {"Gamma", 1.00, 1.50} };

Failed, even when this example was added normally to the desc. ent. file. Tried with () and [] instead of the inside {} and that didn't work either.

The wiki page was sadly barren of any information about this control. :)

As of now, no it can't.

[MulleDK19 21]

A small update: There won't be any new patches for some time, as I'm rewriting most of the tool, to work better, etc.

Alright. Thanks for the update MulleDK19!

[MulleDK19 21]

No problem.

Anyone have any idea why this is happening? I made a simple dialog with some listboxes, a few buttons and pictures. Looks OK in the MADD, but once I get it in game I get a ton of errors and the dialog is unusably tiny?

Here's some of the errors I get:

Warning Message: No entry 'description.ext/dlgSupplyRequest/ctlListSupport.ScrollBar'.

Warning Message: No entry 'description.ext/dlgSupplyRequest/ctlListSupport.autoScrollRewind'.

Warning Message: '/' is not a value

Warning Message: No entry 'description.ext/dlgSupplyRequest/ctlListSupport.autoScrollDelay'.

Warning Message: '/' is not a value

Warning Message: No entry 'description.ext/dlgSupplyRequest/ctlListSupport.autoScrollSpeed'.

Warning Message: '/' is not a value

MADD doesn't support Arma2 listboxes. You should modify this code over your MADD constructed listbox definition:

class RscListBox
{
type = CT_LISTBOX;
style = ST_LEFT;
idc = -1;
colorSelect[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
colorSelectBackground[] = {1,0.5,0,1};
colorText[] = {1, 1, 1, 1};
colorBackground[] = {0, 0.25, 0, 1};
font = FontM;
sizeEx = 0.025;
rowHeight = 0.025;
offsetX = 0.003;
offsetY = 0.003;
offsetPressedX = 0.002;
offsetPressedY = 0.002;
colorFocused[] = {1,0,0,0};
colorShadow[] = {0.6, 0.6, 0.6, 0.8};
colorBorder[] = {0.5,0,0,1};
borderSize = 1;
soundselect[]={};
SoundExpand[]={"\ca\ui\data\sound\new1", 0.15, 1};
SoundCollapse[]={"\ca\ui\data\sound\new1", 0.15, 1};
soundEnter[] = {"\ca\ui\data\sound\mouse2", 0.15, 1};
soundPush[] = {"\ca\ui\data\sound\new1", 0.15, 1};
soundClick[] = {"\ca\ui\data\sound\mouse3", 0.15, 1};
soundEscape[] = {"\ca\ui\data\sound\mouse1", 0.15, 1};
maxHistoryDelay = 1.0;
autoScrollSpeed = -1;
autoScrollDelay = 5;
autoScrollRewind = 0;

	class ScrollBar
{
	color[] = {0.5,0,0,1};
	colorActive[] = {0.5,0,0,1};
	colorDisabled[] = {0.5,0,0,1};
	thumb = "\ca\ui\data\ui_scrollbar_thumb_ca.paa";
	arrowFull = "\ca\ui\data\ui_arrow_top_active_ca.paa";
	arrowEmpty = "\ca\ui\data\ui_arrow_top_ca.paa";
	border = "\ca\ui\data\ui_border_scroll_ca.paa";
};
};

You are propably missing the whole "Scrollbar" part.

MADD doesn't support Arma2 listboxes.

That is the reason. I'm currently rewriting most of MADD to allow support for things such as listboxes.

That's why there haven't been any updates since v0.0.0.8.

I don't know when I can have a new version out, since I've got an awful amount of work to do on another (very important) project I'm doing.

I'll keep you posted.

[alpha9 10]

The program? It's used to design in-game dialogs. Like the menu that pops up when you hit escape while you're playing, etc.

Hi,

Is anybody succeeded to launch the program?

The application failed to initialize properly... is the message I receive every time I try to launch it - Windows XP.

Am I missing something?

Cheers

Do you have .NET Framework 2.0 installed?

[granQ 293]

:( what happened with this.. any update coming? Its a great tool.

[rubberkite 19]

MulleDK19 tell us something about this tool, are you still developing it ?

any news will be appreciated

;)

[MulleDK19 21]

Hello, everyone.

Sorry for the huge delay on updates.

I've been extremely busy with a lot of projects I'm doing (I'm doing a billion projects at once, and I hate it, lol).

Anyway, I want to finish this tool.

I'm currently working on a new way of moving and resizing controls. I'll post some screenshots later.

Hi,

I followed the Youtube tutorial but I'm stuck at the "snap" function, how exactly does it work? I activated it but I'm not able to resize.
