#

this is how ti works

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:11 PM

#

Cause this isn't

#

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:11 PM

#

marble shale

close and reopen the ui builder

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:11 PM

#

How do you re open that?

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:11 PM

#

right click on the tab, up top

#

close

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

nvm, double click uxml

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

re-open is window

#

or that

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

Except that gives the same fubar result

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

for future reference is Window>UITK iirc

#

Oh thats wierd

#

do you have errors on the console?

#

your uxml might be faulty

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:12 PM

#

Yes, the same as before

#

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:13 PM

#

try smth

#

a sec let me get the id

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 3:15 PM

#

it already is

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:15 PM

#

Touched some of the code, closed and reopened, but still get the damn dialog warning me

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 3:15 PM

#

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:15 PM

#

Now have the UI Builder back up though

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:18 PM

#

marble shale

can you send the full log?

#

just click on it, copy and paste

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 3:19 PM

#

I found the check box to toggle the full log, but see nothing I'm able to click on to copy/paste.

#

📎 message.txt

#

May have found it?

#

Hey, I need to scoot. I'll check back later. No real losses here as I still have the old project.

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 3:24 PM

#

that was not it unfortunatelly, but ok! i hope that we have a fix for this soon :D

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 10:25 PM

#

dusty berry that was not it unfortunatelly, but ok! i hope that we have a fix for this soon ...

Hey Lux, I'm back from work and thinking about this problem again. Would it help to do a WinMerge compare on the two projects to see what might be different?

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 10:26 PM

#

go for it!

#

tho i think it will be a ton of unity stuff

#

that we wont make sense of xD

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 10:58 PM

#

One diff is that the old project has a UI Toolkit folder and the new one doesn't. Am I maybe missing that or is it not necessary?

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 10:58 PM

#

HOW

#

well that would explain a lot

#

wheres that UI Toolkit folder located?

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

Under Assets

#

in the old project MNC_UI

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

what does it contain?

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

The new one is deceptively named MNC-UI

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 10:59 PM

#

ah

#

yes, the elevated MNC ui

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:00 PM

#

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:00 PM

#

couldnt be that

#

can you send me the whole log line?

#

if you go onto the unity's console

#

and click on the error line

#

it will show below a selectable text

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:01 PM

#

The UI Toolkit folder gets created automatically if you add a UI Document object to the scene

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:02 PM

#

Then why don't I have one?

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:02 PM

#

Well have you added a UI Document object to the scene?

#

And it should work without it, because the only stuff it contains is PanelSettings and related stuff, and those shouldn't be used anyway, the ones in the UitkForKsp2 package should be used

#

I'm pretty sure I was building AppBar assets fine without the folder

#

It shouldn't have anything to do with Unity not being able to find some classes, since it doesn't contain any code, just some default auto-created assets that we don't need

#

I mean sure, you can try it

#

But I'd be really surprised if it was the root cause of the issue

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:05 PM

#

dusty berry can you send me the whole log line?

Which log line? There are like 12 errors.

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:05 PM

#

any of them

#

they probably point all to the same file

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:06 PM

#

Here's one: Library\PackageCache\uitkforksp2.controls@d8cc3fd6bc\Runtime\ExposedControls.cs(57,26): error CS0311: The type 'UitkForKsp2.Controls.RadioButtonGroupControl.UxmlTraits' cannot be used as type parameter 'TTraits' in the generic type or method 'UxmlFactory<TCreatedType, TTraits>'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'UitkForKsp2.Controls.RadioButtonGroupControl.UxmlTraits' to 'UnityEngine.UIElements.UxmlTraits'.

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:06 PM

#

Theres no conversion from the same type AsukaDead

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:06 PM

#

Here's another Library\PackageCache\uitkforksp2.controls@d8cc3fd6bc\Runtime\ExposedControls.cs(9,26): error CS0311: The type 'UitkForKsp2.Controls.Dropdown' cannot be used as type parameter 'TCreatedType' in the generic type or method 'UxmlFactory<TCreatedType, TTraits>'. There is no implicit reference conversion from 'UitkForKsp2.Controls.Dropdown' to 'UnityEngine.UIElements.VisualElement'.

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:06 PM

#

go to that PachageCache folder

#

and delete theuitkforksp2.controls folder

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:07 PM

#

OK done. close and reload?

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:08 PM

#

yup!

#

it will redownload it

#

if that doesnt work

#

just remove the package and i'll send you the file, will work too

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:08 PM

#

Same warning

#

#

Same errors

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:09 PM

#

thats ok

#

ignore

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:11 PM

#

Also I got this this time

#

📎 message.txt

#

Probably doesn't matter...

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:12 PM

#

thats

#

very interesting

#

do you still have the other errors?

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:13 PM

#

Yes, the warning popped up first, followed by the errors'

#

#

1 warning, 12 errors

#

really just two errors multiple times each

#

I think the warning was simply that I'd deleted the cache, no?

UitkForKsp2.Controls/Runtime at 192a44bde53ec762706a2ff2614b0b597a4...

This package contains assets and controls for creating UIs with UITK for KSP 2. - jan-bures/UitkForKsp2.Controls

#

wait

#

before u do that

#

let me check smth

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:16 PM

#

Another interesting difference...

#

#

In package-lock.json the package versions are fairly different

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

what uitk version

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

Yeah, because I went and manually updated them to the latest versions

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

is on the package-lock?

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

But UITK doesn't get updates

#

For a long time now

#

So it can't really be different

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:17 PM

#

The new project has older packages...

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:18 PM

#

Yep

#

Since you're in old Unity 2020, the default project template has old package versions by default

#

So if you want the default packages to be the newest versions, you have to go and update them manually in the Package Manager

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:19 PM

#

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:19 PM

#

But it doesn't really matter since you don't use any of them

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:19 PM

#

OK, and presumably these are unlikely to be the source of the issue

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:20 PM

#

marble shale

And since UITK and the UI Builder are listed as dependencies in UitkForKsp2, you won't see them in your own packages manifest file

#

They're installed, but through UitkForKsp2

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:21 PM

#

shadow tree They're installed, but through UitkForKsp2

could that be it?

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:22 PM

#

I can't see how, if you look into the Packages view in Unity, or in the cache folder on the actual filesystem, both UITK and UI Builder are installed the exact same way as for a project that directly lists them as dependencies

marble shale Jul 17, 2023, 11:22 PM

#

Could it be as dumb as my project is MNC-UI but my uxml is MNC_UI?

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:22 PM

#

Nope

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:26 PM

#

can confirm

#

#

adding it via the Git bugs things

#

@shadow tree

#

shouldnt uitkforksp2 be here too?

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:41 PM

#

well if you installed it, then it should

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:41 PM

#

i did, via the link

#

this is wierd

#

munix

#

#

shouldnt the asmdef have uitk has a reference? @shadow tree

shadow tree Jul 17, 2023, 11:47 PM

#

idk, maybe?

#

I don't know anything about Unity or its packages tbh

#

munley

dusty berry Jul 17, 2023, 11:48 PM

#

AsukaDead

#

this is the reason im pretty sure

#

let me test it

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:16 AM

#

well i cant seem to find the GUID reference to the UITK

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:19 AM

#

guid reference?

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:19 AM

#

yeah but

#

whats the guid?

#

AsukaDead

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:19 AM

#

no I'm asking

#

what GUID reference means

#

lmao

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:20 AM

#

Oh xD, honestly not sure

#

but i got this i think it works

#

[
"GUID:023ac9b81facd43ebbb2a6f1c6252835"
]

#

idk if it forces to use GUID instead of package references

#

or what

#

the errors disaperad after i added this to the packagecache

#

lets see if it works

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:21 AM

#

isn't this all we need to do?

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:21 AM

#

seems like it

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:21 AM

#

if the reference is the issue

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:22 AM

#

yip, i was not sure

#

because i didnt know

#

that was UITK stuff

#

though it was ugui

#

thats all you need im pretty sure

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:22 AM

#

alright

#

I'll update it then

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:22 AM

#

@marble shale

#

well, you'll have to wait for munix to updat eit, but as soon as it does just update the package on the package manager

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:23 AM

#

Awesome! thanks!

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:31 AM

#

pushed

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:33 AM

#

Not sure if I did it right. I deleted the cach and reloaded. Got the same error. What should I do? remove and re add the package?

#

Or do I need to download something?

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:33 AM

#

you should just be able to go to the package manager and click update on the package

#

or maybe not lmao

#

since I can't seem to be able to do that in my project either

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:34 AM

#

since its from Git i think you have to paste the git link again

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:35 AM

#

yep, that updates it

#

https://github.com/jan-bures/UitkForKsp2.Controls.git

#

just paste that in again

#

should jump to 1.4.0

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:36 AM

#

Works ! I'm building now!

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:36 AM

#

great, glad that's solved

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:36 AM

#

Thanks you guys! I'd never have been able to figure this out on my own.

#

And now we've got a process for making a fresh clean UITK UI project!

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:37 AM

#

I'm still planning to make the template for it

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:37 AM

#

Though it's taking for ever to build...

#

It seems to be stuck on RecompileBeforeBuild

#

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:38 AM

#

hm, I do not have that

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:38 AM

#

However, all the errors are gone and there was just the normal warning for the package cache being invalidated

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:38 AM

#

I'd try just closing and reopening the project

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:39 AM

#

It's really stuck. I may have to kill it hard

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

yeah probably you have to kill it

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

It opened fine without warnings...

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

unity doesnt like updates like that

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

Twice now.

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

yup! same for me

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:41 AM

#

Buyt each time the canvas is shrunken

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:42 AM

#

dusty berry yup! same for me

Is there a way to permafix the canvas size? It always wakes up with 350 x 450

#

I want 350 x 750

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:43 AM

#

that's definitely weird

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:43 AM

#

Or better yet screen size of 1920 x 1080

#

Got a successful build!

#

Also got a couple errors and warnings

marble shale Is there a way to permafix the canvas size? It always wakes up with 350 x 450

that i know of no!

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:46 AM

#

Well, the errors did, the shorter font one came back natch

#

I know that in my other project it remembers a different size, much bigger. There must be some way to set it...

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 12:47 AM

#

yeah, it really should

#

I haven't seen this issue before

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:48 AM

#

https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/[email protected]/manual/uib-getting-started-canvas.html

#

Maybe this will help

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 12:49 AM

#

only way i know is the one on that link

#

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 12:50 AM

#

That's only temporary. it will be good for as long as you have it open, and no longer.

#

"In the same section, you can also lock the Canvas size to the size of the Unity Game Window using the Match Game View checkbox to better match a runtime UI environment:"

#

That worked!

#

I don't know how to set the runtime UI environment, but it's big enough that I can see my UI un-scrunched, and it sticks so it's that way when I reopen it too

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 1:10 AM

#

its not hard

#

just set up a UI Document on your scene

#

and some sort of script that instantiates your window

#

but its not really needed

#

since you can preview your ui on the ui builder

shadow tree Jul 18, 2023, 1:10 AM

#

dusty berry and some sort of script that instantiates your window

don't need that afaik

#

all you need is to add the UI Document game object and set it to use the correct asset

dusty berry Jul 18, 2023, 1:11 AM

#

well depends if the window is the default thingie

#

forgot the name

marble shale Jul 18, 2023, 11:55 AM

#

FYI, I rebuilt the MNC UI using the super simple guidance Munix and Cheese first gave above. It really was super easy with just a few steps. I did this simply because I wanted it to be in a particular folder (MNC_UI), and simply changing the folder name didn't work. I'll do this with the FP UI as well, though it will be even easier now.

marble shale Jul 22, 2023, 10:46 AM

#

shadow tree don't need that afaik

Do I need these kerbalui files in my AssetBundles folder?

#

tough jacinth Jul 22, 2023, 3:35 PM

#

marble shale Do I need these kerbalui files in my AssetBundles folder?

I don't think so, certainly not as an asset bundle. I also have them in my project as I didn't bother removing their asset bundle creation, but I don't use them. I only copy bundles I've created. BTW you can safely delete everything that's inside this folder as it gets recreated when you "Build AssetBundles"

marble shale Jul 22, 2023, 5:41 PM

#

I deleted them and rebuilt the UI. They're back, so building the UI creates them. Weird, as I'm not using them for wanything so far as I know

tough jacinth Jul 22, 2023, 6:43 PM

#

Yes, they're rebuild every time cause they have an asset bundle attached to them. You can set the bundle to none to stop generating it:

marble shale Jul 22, 2023, 9:33 PM

#

That's odd. When I look in the Theme folder I don't see a KerbalUI.

#

#

#

I've got UITK for KSP 2 in packages, but I don't think I've got KerbalUI anywhere in this project.

#

Ahhh! I found it! It's in the package cache

#

#

But is it spuppoed to be there?

#

And it's here, too, in the UITK for KSP 2 package

#

tough jacinth Jul 22, 2023, 9:46 PM

@shadow tree , I'm getting this warning

shadow tree Jul 29, 2023, 11:19 AM

marble shale Safe to remove the `UnityEngine.Object.DontDestroyOnLoad(fpWindow);`? What effec...

Yes, you can (and should) remove that

#

UITK for KSP 2 already persists the objects with the UI

You're trying to call it on the component that's on the game object, not on the game object itself, so it's complaining

Bug - font not found for path: Fonts/Inter/Inter-Regular SDF

I have been receiving this warning for a while now, and I was led to believe this was a bug with the preview package of the UI Toolkit, but now that we...

marble shale Aug 4, 2023, 5:47 PM

#

Got an issue persuading the UI to actually have and use a wider text input field. In the Unity editor it looks like this

#

Which is, in fact, what I'm intending for the Max Arrival Time text input field. This is controlled by .unity-text-field > .unity-base-text-field__input which set it this way

#

I know this is applied to the text field input as I can see it applied right here

#

And it looks fine in the editor with Preview turned on like so

#

#

Notice how the text input box starts just under the 'p' in the "Advanced Interplanetary Transfer" button right above it. But here's what the stinking thing does in game

#

Setting aside the red formatting, the text input box now begins just under the 'n' in the "Advanced Interplanetary Transfer" button above it.

#

What the actual fuck?

#

I've tried adding a Flex Grow 1 to .unity-text-field > .unity-base-text-field__input, but that had no effect whatsoever

#

Since the stupid thing I want to affect is a grayed out sub component of a UITK TextField object, it's not possible for me to flat out tell the stupid thing what it's stupid width is other than to use a uss AFAIK. But nothing I've done has come even close to persuading this thing to be the siaze I want it to be in game. It looks fine in the editor, but in game it's the same size (100px wide) that it was before I began fiddling with it to make it biggger.

#

@dusty berry, @shadow tree help?

dusty berry Aug 4, 2023, 6:00 PM

#

im guessing this is the same issue that you had with the other inputs

#

hmm

#

if you click on the text input

#

and check its classes

#

you can see the hierarchy

#

the lower one is the more iumportant

#

if you override that one it should apply correctly

marble shale Aug 4, 2023, 6:01 PM

#

#

So I need to do this to .unity-base-field?

#

.unity-text-field has this, but it's applied to the whole enchilada

#

And I'm making the effect I want by setting the Min width to 150

#

.unity-base-field also has nothing set for Min Width

#

tough jacinth Aug 4, 2023, 7:08 PM

#

I'm looking at how I have textfields set up and it's pretty basic. VisualElement that holds the row of controls has flex-direction: row; width: 100%; height: 20px; justify-content: space-between; , the "<" and ">" controls have a fixed width defined and to the textfield itself I've attached a new class that has flex-grow: 1;. And that should be it.

Exactly. Initial idea was for people to read it as a tutorial, but spam is overwhelming at this point 😄 . Luckily search works well 🙂

All usefull information

shadow tree Aug 17, 2023, 1:53 PM

#

Right, it's true that at this point UitkForKsp2 is relatively stable (though I've experimenting with some new stuff, but I don't think anything will come out of it), so I should probably put together some docs

dusty berry Aug 17, 2023, 2:43 PM

#

What new stuff?

shadow tree Aug 17, 2023, 2:58 PM

#

I was trying to see if I could backport some stuff from newer Unity versions

#

because the built-in version of UITK is just so much better than our shitty prerelease package

#

😭

#

it actually feels stable and good to use lmao

#

but no luck

dusty berry Aug 18, 2023, 1:28 PM

#

Theres a lot of internal classes and things that they use roght?

shadow tree Aug 18, 2023, 1:29 PM

#

I was trying to see if I use an asset bundle with UXML/USS from Unity 2021-2023 (and inject the UIElementModule DLL from a newer version to match it)

#

it was a dumb idea but I wanted to try anyway lmao

#

turns out the asset bundle format is different and 2020 can't read those new bundles at all, and also the shaders seem to be compiled differently

#

I can't even see what shaders are in a bundle using Asset Studio/Asset Ripper with the newer bundles

dusty berry Aug 18, 2023, 1:31 PM

#

Try addressables

shadow tree Aug 18, 2023, 1:31 PM

#

it just throws errors

shadow tree Aug 18, 2023, 1:31 PM

#

dusty berry Try addressables

hm I could try that

#

but afaik it's basically the same format as a regular bundle, just with a catalog, no?

dusty berry Aug 18, 2023, 1:31 PM

#

Yeah afaik asset bundles are just easier addressables in newer versions

dusty berry Aug 18, 2023, 1:32 PM

#

shadow tree but afaik it's basically the same format as a regular bundle, just with a catalo...

The diffrence is that addressables also pack all dependecies

shadow tree Aug 18, 2023, 1:32 PM

#

I'll take a look at addressables as well, then, we'll see

#

I think the biggest issue will be shaders, since in the UITK preview package, the shaders were simply included in the asset bundle, but not so in the built-in UITK versions

#

the whole architecture of the system seems to have changed

#

I found some of the UIR (UI Toolkit Runtime) shaders in a 2021.3 bundle which the editor builds when you build the full game, it was in like one of the sharedassets bundles or something like that

#

but the bundle format seems to be different so I don't think we could load it

#

Is there a good/easy way to change the color of the white hover/inactive hover items? Preferably in C# alone.

shadow tree Dec 2, 2023, 4:57 PM

#

Usually this stuff is done with USS (where you just add ":hover" to your selector), but you could just register event handlers for the list items and change the colors manually

#

There's MouseOverEvent and MouseOutEvent

#

That should be what you need for the hover

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 10:33 AM

#

Hmm, I was having some trouble with the event approach, but I can give it another shot. My main problem is list and tree view items don't show up in the editor, so it's hard to preview changes.

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:08 PM

#

Also, is there a way to have my window always draw on top of game windows?

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:10 PM

#

it doesn't do that?

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:11 PM

#

No, it's drawing underneath some, but not all windows in the VAB and KSC

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:11 PM

#

that's really interesting, must be something new in Unity 2022

#

it used to be that the UITK panels were always rendered at the very top, above all camera layers, and UGUI (which also means the game UI) was rendered using cameras

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:12 PM

#

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

that's something we'll have to investigate, then

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

I wonder if when it's created has somethign to do with it

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:13 PM

#

we had the opposite problem before, there was no way to put UITK elements into the background 😆

#

but I guess now that it's built in, they updated the system so that it can interact with the UGUI elements

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:16 PM

#

Ha, this is why I hate UI work. Always some weird quirks

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

honestly it doesn't matter too much if it's UI or something else, there are always weird quirks and bugs when it comes to Unity

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:17 PM

#

Yeah, I guess that's reverse engineering in general

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:19 PM

#

full valve I wonder if when it's created has somethign to do with it

for UITK elements, their visual order is determined by the hierarchy, maybe it's the same for the order between UGUI and UITK windows?

#

you could try to create a new game object, place it in the hierarchy below the object that contains the stock save dialog, and render the UI in it

full valve Dec 3, 2023, 9:20 PM

#

Possibly. I noticed that the elements drawing on top are part of the Main canvas, not the VAB canvas, located in the DontDestroy scene, not the f scene

shadow tree Dec 3, 2023, 9:21 PM

#

interesting

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:43 PM

Is this thread where I should post UITK questions? I tried to scroll to the top to read the initial message but it's soooooooo faaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

You can here yds

There are 3k messages here PAIN

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:48 PM

#

Mkay. I have a UITK window that consists of four VisualElements that I'm using as containers. I have a bunch of buttons to swap between them. When I open my mod, I correctly see only the first container, which I refer to as the Alarms List Container. In this container is a button, "New Alarm" that should make only the second container visible.

#

The way I am trying to accomplish this is by having a windowState integer that I can set, alongside a function to use that integer to set the visibility of the various containers. So, to go from the first to the second state, I have:

#

Where RefreshVisibility() sets the visibility based on my selection

#

(I'm going to make an enum for this please don't murder me)

#

Anyways, this doesn't seem to work, and I'm not sure why

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 3:53 PM

#

Are you sure the callback is being calledM

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:53 PM

#

Nope, should probably check that yeah

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 3:54 PM

somber hawk (I'm going to make an enum for this please don't murder me)

A thermonuclear bomb is already being delivered to your house sorry

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:54 PM

#

nuuuuuuuuuuuuu

#

It would appear the callback is not actually being called

#

so

#

I probably made a typo somewhere

#

aaa

#

Okay

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 3:57 PM

#

Where did you register it?

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:57 PM

#

I have a method to link all my button handelers

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 3:58 PM

#

Which is being called where?

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 3:58 PM

#

At the end of OnEnable()

#

After I've gotten all the contents of my document

#

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 3:59 PM

#

Hmm

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:00 PM

#

This is how it's named in unity

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:01 PM

#

Instead of clicked

#

Do
.RegisterCallback<ClickedEvent>(_ => NewAlarmButtonClicked())

#

Try that @somber hawk

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:02 PM

#

sure thing

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:02 PM

#

And its ClickEvent

#

Not ClickedEvent

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:04 PM

#

Still nope

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:06 PM

#

So does nothing happen or?

#

Ah wait the callback isnt happening as you said

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:07 PM

#

Yeah nothing happens still

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:07 PM

#

@shadow tree im confused here

#

I dont understand

#

How is this class being added to the window @somber hawk

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:12 PM

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:13 PM

Is there any errors in the log?

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:14 PM

#

hmm, I can check

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:14 PM

#

Check both ksp2.log and logoutput.log

somber hawk Dec 27, 2023, 4:16 PM

#

This looks potentially relevant!

hollow tiger Dec 27, 2023, 4:17 PM

#

Thats it

#

Your callback handlers dont get registered

#

Cuz it errors before then

Is there a styling class I should use for the "header" of a window (idk what to call it, like the bar that says the name of the mod and has a close button at the top)

shadow tree Dec 28, 2023, 2:39 PM

#

oh yeah, it needs to have the name "title-bar"

#

not class

#

and it should automatically style both the button and the label inside

somber hawk Dec 28, 2023, 2:39 PM

#

I see

#

tyyy

#

hmmmm... is it supposed to be this big or am I do something wrong

shadow tree Dec 28, 2023, 2:46 PM

#

the UI builder sometimes likes to set some random height values when creating new empty VisualElements

#

check if that is the case in your UXML

somber hawk Dec 28, 2023, 2:47 PM

#

I don't think so?

shadow tree Dec 28, 2023, 2:47 PM

#

oh, it has flex-grow set to 1

#

so it will try to fill empty space

somber hawk Dec 28, 2023, 2:47 PM

#

Ahhhhh

#

Okay

shadow tree Dec 28, 2023, 2:47 PM

#

you should be able to just delete the while style attribute there

#

and it should work fine

#

also maybe try to replace the X with ×

#

it might look better

somber hawk Dec 28, 2023, 2:51 PM

#

Will try that later, also maybe want to add a bit of horizontal padding

#

sadly have to do other stuff for a while now, but I feel like I'm getting somewhere with this

#

tyyyy for your help

Is there a way to use an icon as the content of a button?

#

In uitk

shadow tree Dec 31, 2023, 9:49 PM

#

it should be possible to just put either an Image or a VisualElement with a background as the content of the button

#

somber hawk Jan 1, 2024, 10:22 PM

#

If I want to dynamically change the background of a VisualElement in my code, how do I reference the image I want to set it to? I assume I need to get it with AssetManager.GetAsset(), but what type am I looking for?

shadow tree Jan 1, 2024, 10:24 PM

#

I think either Texture2D or Sprite should work

#

but I'm not 100% sure

#

let me look

somber hawk Jan 1, 2024, 10:24 PM

#

Thankuuuu

#

I'll just try one of those myself

shadow tree Jan 1, 2024, 10:25 PM

#

seems like Texture2D

#

but another way you could do this is to have the images in your Unity project, and define a class that has the different background image set, and just toggle the class at runtime

#

or analogously for more than 2 states

somber hawk Jan 1, 2024, 10:27 PM

#

yeahhhhh I probably should do that

shadow tree Jan 1, 2024, 10:27 PM

#

generally it's better to put images into addressables or asset bundles if you can, for load times
