Good day everyone! Week ago i started learning SQF and made some little experience to build light dialogs. So i decided to add image in my dialog but anything i found at Bohemia forum and Wiki is how to add image to hints. I'll be glad if someone can explain me how can i do this with .hpp language. Thanks in advance!

Hello, What if you create some rscTitles classes , inherited from some rscText or rscPicture in an hpp file, and then you play with mods including also displays with their own references to rscText or rscPicture? In other words, I'd like to understand if it's possible to define some basic things like: #define CT_STATIC 0 #define CT_PROGRESS 8 #define ST_VERTICAL 1 #define ST_CENTER 2 #define ST_PICTURE 48 in an hpp file... #included in description.ext (or in a config.cpp form mod), and then, what if there is another hpp from a mod with these things already defined? And what occurs if there are two different rscText or rscPicture (basic class, not inherited) in two different hpp? Is there a "winner" or that doesn't really matter for the displays?

For the longest time I've been using a Spawn for opening and closing dialogs IE: But I've since been migrating all my dialogs and even scripts to a function based unscheduled environment using both CBA and ACE 3 guidelines. ( https://ace3mod.com/wiki/development/coding-guidelines.html#72-scheduled-vs-unscheduled ). I am currently facing a problem finding the most optimized, simple and unscheduled way of opening my custom UI by using: vMenu_keyHandlerID = [33,[false, false, false],vMenuOpen] call CBA_fnc_addKeyHandler; //33 = F key Instead of: displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", So here is my whole previous working code:(Executed via: [player] execVM "vScripts\vMenu\vMenuOpen.sqf";) So what could be a more optimized way of doing this? Like a CBA unscheduled way (more akin to a Event Handler rather than a spawn/ExecVM). PS: Also, since I am using the "F" key for opening the menu, is there a way to auto unbind the previous "F" so that letter is exclusive to opening the menu? PS2: Thanks in advanced guys!

Hi, I'm really confused on why when I use createDisplay, it doesnt go over the parent display like the 3den displays: https://gyazo.com/956ab95d3148cd87e4c9de5902d591ca Instead it just looks like I created another parent display/dialog: https://gyazo.com/be01e67e6a0a7a6ebfcd6d9e1562407b Thanks in advance, skirmish_

Hey, I have a dialog that opens in the target player (You execute the createDialog and the player see it) but i don't know how to use ctrlSetText with that

class taximetro: RscButton { idc = 1600; onMouseButtonClick = "closeDialog 1; createDialog 'interfazTaximetro'; ctrlSetText [1001, format ['%1', Dinero]];"; text = "Taximetro"; //--- ToDo: Localize; x = 0.040674 * safezoneW + safezoneX; y = 0.90607 * safezoneH + safezoneY; w = 0.0787416 * safezoneW; h = 0.0420073 * safezoneH; }; I want this to be created only if a condition is true. How can i make it?

Hi everyone, I don't know how to get script created markers to show up in my dialog's map control other then using "onMapSingleClick". When I create a marker by script it shows up in the in-game map but when I open my dialog the marker does not show up in the dialog map control. Can anyone help me out ? I've searched the internet for any post about this but couldn't find anything. Cheers.

Hello, I can't remember the list of what gets sent over when you click and rscButton via a createDialog. Which Select # is it? 0 and 1 wasn't working.

onMouseButtonDblClick doesn't work for me as a control event handler on a RscPicture control (and all others except RscMapControl for that matter) I've tried looking at this solution but to no avail. Any ideas?

Hi all, i try to work on some Dialogs for my new Multiplayer Mission. I watched a tutorial Video and just did the same as the guy in the video.

if(!_handle) then {hint "Dialog couldnt be found!"}; So i tried to execute the bluforVehicsOpenDialog.sqf by a trigger and by an addActionCommand on some environment, and it seems to work with both options. I dont get the hint that the dialog couldnt be found and in the game, the Cursor is shown like in the gui in the tutorial, but i cannot see the GUI Elements. So can someone help me, i looked over the whole script and googled it up but i cant find anything what has gone wrong. Also i compared everything to what the guy did in the youtube video and i cant find anything wrong... Here is the youtube Video: Hope that someone can help me. KingEldarion

I googled for a premade base class definition for the Gui configs and didn't get a decent hit, so for anyone else wanting base definitions for their GUI projects, I hope you find this useful BASE DEFINITIONS Correct as for A3 v1.50 It's a bit messy, was quickly done but should get you up and running Just mass edit the "MyTag_" and replace it with your own tag and your good to start inheriting from and define your own default colours COLOUR DEFINITIONS I also found this in my archives, I have no idea who made this, which is a shame because it must have taken a while to enter all these values and it would have been nice to pass on the credits. Hopefully someone will find this useful
