my first ui example

[lydia_sp]

hello.

my first example with ui module. as I think it`s good to understand this gui module for applications. I will build one day my own application or first of all a nonsense gui for graphic input. have one idea for it. but my skills are still low, sorry.

there is no reason for me to learn c++ / c# or other languages. I try to go easier ways I see here. It`s possible to realize small guis with thinbasic and callbacks. I have seen a lot of examples here. thanks (martin for example). I am interested in building colour manipulations software. Perhaps there is a way to prevent to learn c++ or c#. I am happy to found thinbasic, you can imagine. good day. see you.

Hi Lydia,

I have seen a lot of examples here. thanks (martin for example).

My pleasure :mrgreen:
You know when I discovered ThinBasic some months ago, I found everything very difficult, everything was new for me, especially understanding coding GUI was hard for me, with all those callbacks, messages, events and parameters :? but after some practising it goes better and better. I really have great fun learning ThinBasic and I am sure you do to.

Martin

[zlatkoAB]

Just one thing C/C++ is not similiar with Net languages like C# .
I really heate Net platform :twisted:

[lydia_sp]

improved my ui script.

qt again: how to build "set menu color" ? doesnt exist yet as command I am thinking

a) how to create colored button, found nothing at the board
b) mouse over button / menu function would be nice to see how does it works or an example could help?

code as example:

I will expand my script. it`s a beginning to learn with complex ui commands and callbacks.

edit: I have corrected my script, thursday.

best regards to all, Lydia

ps: @zlatko, I know the different between c++ / c# using ;)

[lydia_sp]

have forgotten console word (line one) in my last script, sorry:

uses "ui", "console", then script works 100 per cent perfect!

[Petr Schreiber]

Hi Lydia,

menu set color is not provided by thinBasic.
Coloring buttons also not - because "classic" win32 buttons don't support it.

You may try CONTROL ADD XPBUTTON, it is used in samplescripts to use image on button.

I think mouse over is not standard Win32 message as well, so you have to handle %WM_MOUSEMOVE and test, if the mouse is in the region of button.

I hope it helps!


Petr

[zlatkoAB]

Yes i think that is not change button color becose is buttons thamed
with manifest.In CB i can change button color but only classic stayle
button not XP themed..

[lydia_sp]

thanks petr, slatko for replies.

I am a little proud to manage "mouse over" functions for my new open window in script ! 8) needed some minutes to found the problem ;)

1) open "newWin" and you get new window (lydias multywindow). then move mouse over button_mouseover_ok? and in text field (rectangle kind, textbox) the message should appear "hurray the mighty mouse found the button!" this little code part takes nearly half an hour to found the solution!!!

2) click the dog picture, new message open (xp-button style), I managed this little nice thing!

any feedback will be welcome and useful.

it`s not the perfect solution for move mouse over (this command I am still missing for ui module), but this solution works. perhaps one profi can show nother way ?

thanks petr for using %wm_movemouse feature hint :)

take care good guys, lydia

[Petr Schreiber]

Hi Lydia,

congratulations!
Maybe you could post your solution to your problem here so others can learn from it too?


Thanks,
Petr

[lydia_sp]

(loading times of this board ui/my first ui example are very long, don`t know why, anybody can check?)

@petr: take the long way to answer. not usual for me.

it's a little pleasure. ok. what kind of reward I can get from you for my solution? free voyage to usa (california) or galapagos island ?

although there were more to understand than this line for me (as martin said it was all new for him at his start with callbacks and ui!), here my solution.

make it short and simple: you shouldn't use "hdlg" or other silly things in "callback functions" !!!
better always use: "cbhndl".

! I repeat: you better and always use: "cbhndl". in "callback functions" !!!

it's like using salt, pepper for your meat and soup.

I changed / arranged order of %wm command at second place, %wm_mousemove at first place. this takes 5 minutes to find out.

"control add textbox" or "control add button" and more you can use "hDlg" without problems.


first:




FUNCTION Create_NewWinDialog()

''..

CONTROL ADD textbox , hDlg, %txt_Result , " " , 80, 12, 60, 14, %WS_TABSTOP '' mouseover can be seen here!
CONTROL ADD BUTTON , hDlg, %btn_OK , "MOUSE_OVER_OK?" , 6, 90, 74, 14, %WS_TABSTOP
CONTROL HANDLE hDlg, %btn_OK to hBtn_OK

DIALOG SHOW MODELESS hDlg, call NewWind_DlgProc



mouse over function doesn't work for me withouth: "CONTROL HANDLE hDlg, %btn_OK to hBtn_OK" that takes 10 minutes to find out.

I am new here, don't forget! I am no teacher for thinbasic ui module! learning by doing and making experiments. best side of learning faster I suppose.


second:



CALLBACK FUNCTION NewWind_DlgProc()

SELECT CASE CBMsg

'' lyd partido begin ---------------------------------------------------------

'' -- mouse move over..

case %WM_MOUSEMOVE
SetCapture cbhndl

GetCursorPos pt
GetWindowRect hBtn_OK, rc

IF ptInRect(rc,pt.x,pt.y) THEN
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result, "hurray! the mighty Mouse found this great BUTTON!"
ELSE
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result, ""
END IF

ReleaseCapture

'' lyd partido fin --------------------------------------------

CASE %WM_Command
' -- Here you can process the input from controls
SELECT CASE CBCtl
CASE %btnClose2
if CBCTLMSG = %BN_CLICKED THEN
dialog end cbhndl
END IF
CASE %ID_CANCELXP
IF CBCTLMSG = %BN_CLICKED THEN DIALOG END CBHNDL
CASE %IDC_BUTTON1
IF CBCTLMSG = %BN_CLICKED THEN
MSGBOX 0, "largest 'Gibson doggy' of world died one month ago :("
END IF
CASE %btn_OK
IF CBCTLMSG = %BN_CLICKED THEN
MSGBOX 0, "Great, you win the cup!"
END IF

END SELECT

END SELECT

END FUNCTION


takes again 20 minutes to check how to fit callbacks and controls all together !

qt: "cbhndl" does meaning: callbackhandle. ? it`s a metafile, so I have no possibilities to check the syntax or background infos.

I was very glad to find this solution for me! checked other callback scripts from thinbasic sample script folder. takes some minutes (over one, two hours! ). after that my mind was full of new commands and callback using, confused more than beginning. I am learning with my script step by step. no one thousand kilo pounds weight will beat me falling from heaven on my head.

hope this helps new users. like to myself or newbies.

nobody can really understand how's feeling to learn new coding (ui module) language, the script is working fine, if you are a professional thinbasic (powerbasic) user like most guys here. my opinion. better to have a closer look for beginners and patience to help or making tutorials. the hurdle is high to understand new chapters like "tbgl/ui module" for non-using-thinbasic language users. oxygen and assembler coding was fitted for professional users too, I have seen at this forum. I like this forum. it's alive ! but I am missing also new users showing their projects. perhaps they are afraid of blaming themselves showing not running tb codes full of mistakes ? everybody begins with an interesting, simple example you wished to program and you use help from other users here. that's fine, cause the help of other users is really ok here! but would like to see more of new people with questions about their tb scripts :)

I don't dare to use oxygen yet! I am happy to understand one piece of fancy cake to ui module / tbgl module. I don't learn new language to speak in one week or month. I suggest you know what I mean. I can motivate myself:
if the script show good results I am always happy.


competition for advanced users: how many minutes I needed for this script ? I wish to have a serious tb ui script with result and callback functions in minutes!

the example is going on. all work in progress.

thanks back. lydia. life is precious, positive and full of wonder. thinbasic is like good icecream in summer

[Petr Schreiber]

what kind of reward I can get from you for my solution? free voyage to usa (california) or galapagos island ?

The best reward is the feeling of victory of mind over code, isn't it :)

CBHNDL = Callback Handle
CBMSG = Callback Message
CBCTL = Callback Control
CBCTLMSG = Callback Control Message

Maybe more easy to read Callback_Handle, Callback_Message, Callback_Control, Callback_ControlMessage would be better for you?

Just add following on the top of the script:


ALIAS CBHNDL AS Callback_Handle
ALIAS CBMSG AS Callback_Message
ALIAS CBCTL AS Callback_Control
ALIAS CBCTLMSG AS Callback_ControlMessage


... and you can use it in your code, for better clarity.

Tutorials ... yes, sure they are useful for the beginners. You can find some introduction to callback programming in ThinBASIC Journal #2 (http://community.thinbasic.com/index.php?topic=2310.0). I recommend to read it for better understanding of the callback world.

purpose of this example:

create a window with callbacks, colors, popup window, menus.
open a new window
-mouse over functions for button AND xp button with picture.
- you will get two separately messages for button and xp picture (doggy)

everything works good here. I am proud. end the script. ready.

best regards, Lydia

Hi Lydia,

the example is very nice!
But I have still an impression the mouseOver does not work 100% for all situations.
WM_MOUSEMOVE is only produced when you are on dialog field, not on its buttons.
For tricky case, you can use WM_SETCURSOR (took me some googling too).



case %WM_SETCURSOR, %WM_MOUSEMOVE

SetCapture cbhndl

GetCursorPos pt
GetWindowRect hBtn_OK, rc

IF ptInRect(rc,pt.x,pt.y) THEN
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result, "hurray! the mighty Mouse found this great BUTTON!"
printl "found my button with move mouse over!"
ELSE
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result, ""
END IF
control redraw cbhndl, %txt_Result


GetCursorPos pt
GetWindowRect hBtn_OK2, rc

IF ptInRect(rc,pt.x,pt.y) THEN
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result2, "yeah, master doggy you have found!"
printl "found the the hughe doggy beast ;) "
ELSE
control set text cbhndl, %txt_Result2, " "
END IF
control redraw cbhndl, %txt_Result2

ReleaseCapture


This results in 100% mouseOver detection for classic button, the XP button seems ... resistent and works as before (= 90% ok, 10% no reaction).

[zlatkoAB]

Hmm...
I'm not 100% sure but i think that xp button require WM_NOTIFY
for mouse over effect.
@Lydia - I'm glad that your UI example work fine :occasion:
