JSON-UI General

[mystic heart]

Are you sure that is the only formatting code in the string you're detecting? Where are you getting the text from?

[jaunty fox]

I have a simple animation to fade out alpha value:

  "anim_notif_text_alpha_out": {
    "anim_type": "alpha",
    "easing": "in_expo",
    "duration": 3,
    "from": 1.0,
    "to": 0
  },

But whenever I try to use it

"alpha":"@hud.anim_notif_text_alpha_out",

Absolutely nothing changes.
If it helps the alpha works perfectly normally if I set it to a number like 0 or 1

[stiff urchin]

someone help me center

[raven wigeon]

From the chat

[mystic heart]

title, actionbar, etc.? Or are you trying to use a player message

[raven wigeon]

Tellraw message

On the hud.

From the chat

[mystic heart]

And the tellraw message exactly matches §lTravis Jenkins?

[raven wigeon]

Well yeah the text appears bold so its correct

[mystic heart]

Did you write the tellraw message or did someone else? Because it could be §r§lTravis Jenkins and that would look exactly the same but not match.

I would just use (#text - 'Travis Jenkins') = #text if you aren't sure of the messages formatting

[raven wigeon]

I wrote it.

As §lTravis Jenkins

Exactly.

[raven wigeon]

Then it would also detect it when Travis Jenkins is in the message but not as the subject

[mystic heart]

Hmm strange. I'll do a quick test

[raven wigeon]

Thanks

[mystic heart]

Yeah you're right it doesn't work for the chat. I wonder if it's using the $chat_font_type variable instead? Gonna try a few more things

O wait I may have found something... wtf

@raven wigeon ok so it looks like it's somehow 3 characters. this works "source_property_name": "('%.17s' * #text = '§lTravis Jenkins')",

don't ask me why lol. Maybe when you do formatting for the chat it adds an extra character to denote that it has special formatting or something

[raven wigeon]

Weird

But thanks!!!

[mystic heart]

[restive crag]

How do I add a white underline below text?

Is there a property for that?

[fathom bluff]

No, you have to manually create that while underline

[restive crag]

Oh.. i searched a bit, someone said we could get text length and dynamically change the size of the underline. Do you have any idea about getting text length?

[fathom bluff]

Yes i do

Its quite easy actually

[opal aurora]

You can't, but you can try adding underline element inside text "controls" with size 100% in x axis

[restive crag]

Ohh I get now. Thanks

[opal aurora]

It will use 100% size of text element

To make it work properly, make sure the text element size is [ "default", "default" ] and only on one row

[jaunty fox]

I have a simple animation to fade out alpha value:

  "anim_notif_text_alpha_out": {
    "anim_type": "alpha",
    "easing": "in_expo",
    "duration": 3,
    "from": 1.0,
    "to": 0
  },

But whenever I try to use it

"alpha":"@hud.anim_notif_text_alpha_out",

Absolutely nothing changes.
If it helps the alpha works perfectly normally if I set it to a number like 0 or 1

[fathom bluff]

Um you're specifying it incorrectly

[restive crag]

Does font_size gonna override the size?
example if I do this

"text": {
     "type": "label",
     "text": "Test",
     "font_type": "MinecraftTen",
     "font_size": "large",
     "size": ["default", "default"]
}

Would the text still be large?

[jaunty fox]

I copied straight from the samples, how am I supposed to specify it?

[fathom bluff]

"anims": [ "@namespace.anims_element" ]

@jaunty fox ^

[fathom bluff]

probably yes

[restive crag]

Ok

[jaunty fox]

This?

"anims":[
"@hud.anim_notif_text_alpha_out"
],

[fathom bluff]

Yes

[fathom bluff]

Um not sure yet since i use font_scale_factor to resize the text

[jaunty fox]

Its still not playing

[fathom bluff]

Weird, this is the correct syntax for animations

[restive crag]

try change in_expo to linear..? Maybe it would change idk

[jaunty fox]

I'll try that

[jaunty fox]

Still nothing

[restive crag]

Do you reload your world? That was fast

[jaunty fox]

Yes

[restive crag]

rejoin*

[jaunty fox]

Yeah

[jaunty fox]

Could it be an error somewhere else?

"notification_text": {
"type": "label",
"text": "($atext - 'notif:')",
"anims":[
"@hud.anim_notif_text_alpha_out"
],
"offset":[120,5],
"font_size": "medium",
"anchor_from": "middle",
"anchor_to": "middle",
"text_alignment":"left"
}

This is the label its attached to

[fathom bluff]

Maybe try to temporary remove the font_size

By the way does your label element show up correctly in the hud?

[jaunty fox]

Doesn't seem to have any effect

[restive crag]

Oh @fathom bluff is wrong. You dont need the namespace. You could just.

"your_element": {
     "alpha": "@anim_notif_text_alpha_out"
}

[jaunty fox]

It shows up exactly where I want it

[restive crag]

@jaunty fox ^^

[jaunty fox]

No change

[restive crag]

Huh

[jaunty fox]

oh wait

sorry one sec I didnt realize that was alpha

[fathom bluff]

lmao

Without namespace and with namespace are the same

[jaunty fox]

Didnt change anything

[jaunty fox]

Thought so

[restive crag]

Hmmm

[restive crag]

I gotit from a doc

http://web.archive.org/web/20200929035744/https://geenium.com/bedrock/json-guis/animations/

[fathom bluff]

First of all,No one ever use alpha to include an anims because it doesn't even work. Ask any JSON UI creator like ambro or TLGM.

Second of all, calling an element does not require namespace if that element is in the same file as this current one.

EDIT: ignore the first one

[jaunty fox]

Bro I was using alpha because the official samples do it somehow

[restive crag]

I use alpha it worked

[jaunty fox]

Official actionbar does it

  "hud_actionbar_text": {
    "type": "image",
    "size": [ "100%c + 12px", "100%c + 5px" ],
    "offset": [ 0, "50%-68px" ],
    "texture": "textures/ui/hud_tip_text_background",
    "alpha": "@hud.anim_actionbar_text_background_alpha_out",
    "controls": [
      {
        "actionbar_message": {
          "type": "label",
          "anchor_from": "center",
          "anchor_to": "center",
          "color": "$tool_tip_text",
          "layer": 31,
          "text": "$actionbar_text",
          "localize": false,
          "alpha": "@hud.anim_actionbar_text_alpha_out"
        }
      }
    ]
  },

Can't trust it though ig

[fathom bluff]

0 idea howthis work. I only see people use anims rather then only alpha

[jaunty fox]

Yeah I was copying and it didnt work so Im not gonna touch that until I understand wtf Im doing

[restive crag]

@fathom bluff

[jaunty fox]

Is there any other steps to declaring an animation that I haven't explicitly said I've done?

[fathom bluff]

This one is from 2020

[restive crag]

Doest matter

[opal aurora]

yes

[fathom bluff]

0 idea now, i only khow about anims as people use this nowadays

[opal aurora]

if the animated panel was inside a factory, animations can be updated and replayed at anytime as game wanted

if not inside factory, anims will play only once

[jaunty fox]

Yeah I still don't know what the problem with my thing is

[acoustic ivy]

how do you control separatly server_form buttons with collection_index?

[opal aurora]

you can also make animations loop-able, or manually trigger-able with buttons

[opal aurora]

it's very broken, i don't know

maybe a lot of collection panels with same collection but different visibility bindings

[acoustic ivy]

what about without collection_index how do you control for example 2 differnet server form buttons

[restive crag]

@opal aurora didn't seem to work?

            {

                    }]
                }
            },

It doesn't show the underline

[jaunty fox]

@fathom bluff I think I figured it out, crazy mixture of stupidity in my past code and now I gotta relearn some things but basically I had it mixed in with the Title text and was repeatedly calling that restarting the anim rapidly

[fathom bluff]

If i remember correctly controls don't work with text

[restive crag]

Hm.. I'll search a bit

[opal aurora]

it's possible

[opal aurora]

i see nothing wrong here, other than underline_image offset

[fathom bluff]

🤷‍♂️

[opal aurora]

there is also an example inside ui_template_buttons.json:underline_button

[fathom bluff]

I suggest you should you a panel that include text and the underline texture, even though this require a bit of positioning but this should work correctly

[fathom bluff]

Ye im not sure about this

If i remember correctly

[opal aurora]

or ui_common.json:single_line_label/label_panel, there is a whole $underline_control variable here

example of an underline control (from ui_common.json):

{
  "underline": {
    "type": "image",
    "size": [ "100%", 1 ],
    "$texture|default": "textures/ui/underline",
    "texture": "$texture",
    "alpha": 0.6,
    "tiled": "x",
    "anchor_from": "bottom_left",
    "anchor_to": "bottom_left"
  }
}

[opal aurora]

ah, the size, it's too big in y axis

[restive crag]

Nope. I found the problem, it's the offset 😅. But the underline doesn't seem to increase its size in x axis?

[opal aurora]

because your underline texture doesn't have 9-slice size

try using the vanilla textures/ui/underline or textures/ui/White

[restive crag]

I used this and it worked! Thanks!

[restive crag]

Oh yeah, I just realized.

[jaunty fox]

Why does a binding like this not function at all

"bindings":[
{
"binding_name":"(not ($atext = 'a'))",
"binding_name_override":"#visible"
}
],

I seriously do not understand the point of bindings or their function at all considering this does nothing

[restive crag]

"(not $atext = 'a')"

Also I think variables and bindings can work together.?

[jaunty fox]

That won’t change it will it?

[restive crag]

#1125260994525024318 message

Bindings and Variables do not work together, you need to do conditional rendering stuff.

[restive crag]

#art-and-modeling

[warm prawn]

Ha okey

[mystic heart]

Variables work in bindings, but bindings do not work in variables. Though variables will only work (in most cases) in bindings if they are accompanied by a valid binding in the same equation. An easy way to do this is set a property bag binding to a variable value and use that in the equation. Though @jaunty fox in your case, you can just use:
"visible": "(not ($atext = 'a'))"
You don't need a binding since you can use the parameter directly.

[restive crag]

Oh my bad, I misunderstood.

[mystic heart]

All good. It's made in a confusing way

[restive crag]

Does F5 have some not-hardcoded bindings that could be use in different screens?

[normal moat]

nope

[restive crag]

But it exist, just hardcoded?

[normal moat]

it is hardcoded

[restive crag]

In what screen? Settings?

[normal moat]

Yeah of course, It is hardcoded to settings and f5 button on pc

[agile shale]

Im trying to achive something allows me to change the server ui to a layout that I want, depending on the form title text. Ive done this with a chest before and it worked. Im trying to apply this on the form ui now but Im having some trzbbles with that.
Any advice?

//code above
  "long_form@common_dialogs.main_panel_no_buttons": {
    "$title_panel": "common_dialogs.standard_title_label",
    "$title_size": [ "100% - 14px", 10 ],
    "size": [225, 200],
    "$text_name|default": "#title_text",
    "$title_text_binding_type": "none",
    "$child_control|default": "server_form.long_form_panel",
    "layer": 2,
    "variables":[
      {
        "requires":"#title_text = 'Test'",
        "$child_control": "chest.charger_chest_root_panel"
      },
      {
        "requires":"#title_text = 'new'",
        "$child_control": "furnace.furnace_panel"
      }
    ]
  },
//code below

my problem is that it displays allways the last variable in the chain
And I have no idea why it does that

[normal moat]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X9Oq2BvLck

[agile shale]

oh... okay then :/
someone was quicker then me 😦
Oki thanks

[normal moat]

Also note that bindings never work inside variables and variables array.

[agile shale]

aight

[agile shale]

Im trying to add multiple form layouts, am I doing this wrong?
(not (#title_text = 'nav_compass') or (#title_text = 'bedwars'))
Thats the vanilla form
The problem is in the bedwars form
When I open it, it will be a form in a form
Whats wrong with it?

[hexed briar]

weird that legacy texture is still there

[odd wharf]

is the file in which this is coded hardcoded? Id like to remove the enchantment description and have it only show the name

[dusty ether]

try looking in hud_screen

I found some references to "item" but am not sure if they may help your case, but testing will

or reference "hotbar"

[odd wharf]

do you know if the object would be a stack panel? that would make this easier to find

[odd wharf]

wait does #item_text mean its hardcoded

[mystic heart]

If you want to run this from a title factory, you can use $title_text variable if you want to use variables section.

[mystic heart]

I spent like an hour removing this with UI only to realize there is a gamerule for it lmao. /gamerule showitemtags false

oh wait I don't know if that hides enchants actually

[odd wharf]

it doesn't

just checked

[mystic heart]

ah ok

Lemme checked the code where I removed it

@odd wharf Mine wasn't for removing enchant text, but other stuff. The only way I can think of to remove the enchants without the code getting really messy would be to surround the name of the item with a bunch of invisible characters, such as §z§z§z§z§z<item name>§z§z§z§z§z, and then transforming the item text with:
('%.20s' * $text_binding)
Unless you have a really long name, it should cut off everything after the item name.

Actually it'd probably be better to only put the invis characters after the item name, like <item name>§z§z§z§z§z§z§z§z§z§z>. Gives you more space to work with.

[odd wharf]

you mean in game putting in those characters?

[mystic heart]

in your item name, yeah

[odd wharf]

might that be because the enchants list is hardcoded?

[mystic heart]

Well it'll just cut off everything after 20 characters, so no matter how many enchants you have they all get removed from the item text.

[restive crag]

What element is this in inventory screen?

[lament kraken]

i need help

[nimble jungle]

inventory_screen_pocket.json also are you talking about the crafting_panel_2x2 or the creative blocks?

[restive crag]

Both

[odd wharf]

but still, is the list hardcoded?

[mystic heart]

The enchantments list? Pretty sure yeah

[cunning escarp]

would this be the right place for .lang file issues?

[undone marsh]

Uhh no. I think #1067869590400544869

[unique swan]

Hello

How can I add a custom button to my json file, so is there a code for the custom button?

[hard patrol]

Don't promote your question/help forum. People will eventually come by. Have patience, please. The people around here has other stuff they need to do.

[earnest wind]

Sorry

Ok

[restive crag]

Anyone found out what element it is to edit this?

[hexed briar]

item_text something

[restive crag]

Oh ok, found it

[agile shale]

hey, here is a little general question
Ive been making a UI, which works fine and I want it to be like that...
but there is one problem
Its like my biggest enemy at the moment...
Its gui scale
When people use gui scale 1
They will see my UI in a way too big size
is there a way to display my ui in gui scale 1 or 2 exactly like in scale 0
or is there any other good solution to solve my problem:(

[restive crag]

Use percentages?

[normal moat]

Use percentages avoid numbers in size, offset etc., UI changes itself if you use percentages.

[agile shale]

aight
Ill try that
Thanks
I always thought that % is the percentage of the parented panel

[earnest wind]

Where can I find the jsons of the blocks?

[normal moat]

nope, not data-driven

[agile shale]

hard coded my guy

[earnest wind]

What

[agile shale]

its hard coded

[restive crag]

Why would they make json ui data-driven then no documentations like wth

[earnest wind]

I don't understand

[agile shale]

you cant

[normal moat]

you cant get them bro

#1067876857103536159

[cunning helm]

anyone know how I can "link" a button I created to an existing interface?
Been stuck for ages

[hexed briar]

link what

[agile shale]

I think he made an UI and he want the button to open his ui

[cunning helm]

Yes

[hexed briar]

toggle with bindings.

[cunning helm]

Even through reading the doc people made

[agile shale]

use toggles
Its not really an "Opening the UI thing" but it displays it as you want them

its a work arround

[cunning helm]

okay

Because I was trying to figure out with the TEST button

but I will try your thing

[agile shale]

you could retexture an existing block, for example a trapchest and rework the ui of it

[restive crag]

He was asking the vanilla blocks

[agile shale]

ah right

nvm then

[earnest wind]

I'm trying to find the json file of shulker

[agile shale]

for what?

like what do ya wanna do with it

[restive crag]

Again, it's not data-driven

[earnest wind]

Mod

[agile shale]

do ya wanna get a block hitbox for your entity? or what are you trying to do?

[earnest wind]

it is the only block that opens the inventory when clicked

shulker_box

[agile shale]

you mean like a barrel or the chest?

[earnest wind]

things come out when broken

[agile shale]

ah thats what u mean

[hexed briar]

if it about blocks, go #1067876857103536159

[earnest wind]

All items fall to the ground when broken

[agile shale]

ye ask in blocks
I dont think thats possible tho

[cunning helm]

Like so?

[hexed briar]

uh no

[cunning helm]

ah

[hexed briar]

Try to look it around #old-json-ui with search feature thing

you may able to find it.

It's not complicated, it's just hard to explain.

[restive crag]

Search feature thing 😱

[hexed briar]

atleast for me even though the code looks simple

[agile shale]

I really dont like these new chat group things of discord
They seems so unorganised

[hexed briar]

forums?

[agile shale]

ye these things

a chat like this is way more organised

[hexed briar]

well the change was made after #1019665628946247761 was deem successful experiment.

the experiment was trying to get people to use forums as like their own questions and chat along with it

that's why every add-ons now has forums, it was replacement to that

[agile shale]

yeah...
still
I liked it better before
Im just happy that UI has still a chat u know xD

[hexed briar]

every forums has its own general chat.

you should definitely see ones in the pinned post on every fourms

[agile shale]

I see yeah
ok
I have to get used to that

[cunning helm]

I'm just going to give up, I'm not finding what I really want

[agile shale]

so you want to trigger your UI using a toggle is that correct?

[vital edge]

best UI ever the scroll is very proportionally manageable

[cunning helm]

yeah

[odd wharf]

is there a way to make an element in the hud screen adjust transparency with the hud opacity setting?

*and play the animation the makes it slowly disapear whislt opening the inventory or some other container

[opal aurora]

Especially when setting GUI Scale to larger

Why not make them scrollable instead of sticking at the top of that

[restive crag]

I made a title based form, but how can i make the title invisible?

[restive crag]

Nvm found a way

[jolly pagoda]

How do i go about changing the duration that the tooltip will appear on screen

[timber harness]

how can i use a lang in json ui

item lang file

[topaz stone]

can you use bindings for a texture?

"image": {
  "type": "image",
  "texture": "#texture",
  "bindings": [
    {
      "binding_type": "view",
      "source_property_name": "(('textures/') + (#text))",
      "target_property_name": "#texture"
    }
  ]
}

[median spoke]

Yeah

[topaz stone]

it won't seem to work for me

[median spoke]

Try removing the () around the binding, not sure whether it would change anything

[topaz stone]

i tried using it with a label and it works, so its probably just not usuable for images??

idk

[median spoke]

I use bindings for the texture, so it shouldn't be a problem. Is it just showing the purple and black squares?

[topaz stone]

yea

but im 100% sure its the right texture

[median spoke]

I once had a problem like this, in my case I forgot to include a / in the actual text. Maybe it's something like that for you?

[topaz stone]

just triple checked everything and i dont think its that either

btw thanks for the help lmao

[median spoke]

What's the path of the image you are trying to use?

[topaz stone]

hol up i just got it working

thanks

[median spoke]

Yay!

[topaz stone]

also one more question lol

how would you edit a string but only if something is met

like only remove the first couple characters if the text has a string in it

because they both need a different "target_property_name"

[median spoke]

I don't know sorry

[topaz stone]

oh all good

good night

[median spoke]

You too

Can someone help me to add a button to players inventory? https://discord.com/channels/523663022053392405/1139637378001154208

[restive crag]

Is there a way to override all elements in hud and only show specific one?

[normal moat]

modifications

[restive crag]

cough cough how?

[normal moat]

"hud_title_text": {
    "ignored": true
}
```I didn't understand what you mean by override.

[restive crag]

Like show only a specific element

Example when you like open a server form, it only shows the server form, not the hud screen.

[normal moat]

bruh? it only shows server form screen when you open a server form

[restive crag]

😂

Uhh

How do I explain properly

[normal moat]

if you want to not show the display, just render a black image

[restive crag]

Thats what I did, but the controls and buttons on hud screen is still visible

I dont want that

[normal moat]

hmm, control and buttons on hud screen don't show when you have a form opened normally

[restive crag]

No I Don show a form

I only show a panel

[normal moat]

then why you said server form

[restive crag]

As an example

[normal moat]

they are different screens

One way is to have a toggle that shows your panel and hides all the other elements

[restive crag]

Uh

That's some painful way

[normal moat]

add your element to hud_content and add bindings to your element and root panel

it's very easy

[restive crag]

Oh ok

I just toggle the root panel?

[quasi acorn]

What's the best way to show the xp bar in creative?

[normal moat]

"exp_progress_bar_and_hotbar/resizing_xp_bar_with_hotbar": {
  "modifications": [
    {
      "array_name": "bindings",
      "operation": "remove",
      "where": {
        "binding_name": "#show_survival_ui"
      }
    }
  ]
}
```This may work. I haven't tried.

[quasi acorn]

I'll tr, thx

doesn't work, too bad

[normal moat]

ahh

[quasi acorn]

What variable should you replace #exp_progress with to get a specific score?

[unique swan]

can you send me the json file of the scrollbar?

[opal aurora]

no, it will show 2 hotbars instead of one

try this (code for 1.20.10 or newer):

{
  "exp_progress_bar_and_hotbar/resizing_hotbar_no_xp_bar": {
    "ignored": true
  },

  "exp_progress_bar_and_hotbar/resizing_xp_bar_with_hotbar": {
    "bindings": [
      {
        "binding_name": "#show_survival_ui"
      },
      {
        "binding_name": "#is_creative_mode"
      },
      {
        "binding_type": "view",
        "source_property_name": "(#show_survival_ui or #is_creative_mode)",
        "target_property_name": "#visible"
      }
    ]
  }
}

it should hide hotbar correctly if in spectator mode but the xp bar is still visible in creative mode, that's why the "bindings" is a bit complex

[normal moat]

i guess im outdated xd

[quasi acorn]

that works, thanks 👍

other question:
How does #exp_progress work?
I don't understand where it's defined and what values it returns

[normal moat]

#exp_progress is the progress on the experience bar and uses clip ratio to fill up. It returns float for the exp bar. It is a hardcoded binding for hud.

[quasi acorn]

thanks
that means that (theoretically) any float would will up a certain percentage of the bar?
So I could then tie that float to a score?

and create a custom exp system?

[normal moat]

Yeah, if we set a max value and the value is from 0 to max value, it can be used as a percentage for the bar using clip ratio.

[quasi acorn]

thank you very much for the info!

though this doesn't work (I get a full xp bar)
is it due to the binding type being wrong?

    "full_progress_bar": {
        "type": "image",
        "texture": "textures/ui/experiencebarfull",
        "clip_direction": "left",
        "clip_pixelperfect": false,
        "$my_exp_progress": 0.5,
        "bindings": [
            {
                "binding_name": "$my_exp_progress",
                "binding_name_override": "#clip_ratio",
                "binding_type": "global"
            }
        ]
    },```

[opal aurora]

it's not binding

[normal moat]

well you have to get a value first

[quasi acorn]

source_property and target_property?

[opal aurora]

that's one way

[normal moat]

#1139545952609374218 message

[opal aurora]

if you want to clip specific ratio, use "clip_ratio": <float>

(no bindings)

[quasi acorn]

I'm trying to understand this part by part 😅

[normal moat]

okay, np

[quasi acorn]

it was just for testing, I'm intending to change that later down he line

    "full_progress_bar": {
        "type": "image",
        "texture": "textures/ui/experiencebarfull",
        "clip_direction": "left",
        "clip_pixelperfect": false,
        "$my_exp_progress": 0.5,
        "bindings": [
            {
                "source_property_name": "$my_exp_progress",
                "target_property_name": "#clip_ratio",
                "binding_type": "view"
            }
        ]
    }```
From what I understand this should work, but it doesn't
what did I miss?

[opal aurora]

your $my_exp_progress is not a valid binding property

[quasi acorn]

what should I use instead?
I thought you could define "variables" that way

[opal aurora]

this

no "bindings" required (if your case)

[quasi acorn]

I'm planning to change that
would it work if I had an operation in "source_property_name"?

[opal aurora]

missing source_control_name's or other binding_name's

[unique swan]

How can I write on the button like this?

[quasi acorn]

what would be a valid source_control_name for instance?

[edgy nacelle]

@normal moat can we talk in dm i want to talk about something

[quasi acorn]

@opal aurora I got it to work by heavily inspiring my self from other stuff I saw in this server, but I still don't get why my previous thing didin't work

        "$exp_max_value": 10.0,
        "bindings": [
          {
            "binding_name": "#objective_sidebar_name",
            "binding_type": "global"
          },
          {
            "binding_name": "#player_score_sidebar",
            "binding_type": "collection",
            "binding_collection_name": "scoreboard_scores"
          },
          {
            "binding_type": "view",
            "source_property_name": "(1 - ((#player_score_sidebar * 1) / $exp_max_value))",
            "target_property_name": "#clip_ratio"
          }
        ]

[opal aurora]

A control name with bindings you want to use

[opal aurora]

This #clip_ratio doesn't return float

Add "property_bag": { "#float": 1.0 },, then replace all the "1" inside your last "source_property_name" with #float

That's to override the output value format from integer to float

[quasi acorn]

it does work though...

as long as I keep "$exp_max_value" a float it seems to detect it

[fathom bluff]

You mean hover text?

[unique swan]

bro i want to ask something how can i add custom button to my own server_form.json file?

[fathom bluff]

You will need to use grid or stack_panel to do this

If i remember correctly, the sample file already have it

Go read it

[unique swan]

@fathom bluff can you attach the file

[topaz stone]

can anyone help with this?

[normal moat]

variables array not with bindings

[topaz stone]

could you help me do that?

[normal moat]

sorry can't. You can see this:;
https://wiki.bedrock.dev/json-ui/json-ui-documentation.html#variables-property

[still sundial]

How can i display scoreboard value on UI? RawText?

[normal moat]

"label": {
    "type": "label",
    "text": "#score",
    "bindings": [
        {
            "binding_name": "#player_score_sidebar",
            "binding_type": "collection",
            "binding_collection_name": "scoreboard_scores"
        },
        {
            "binding_type": "view",
            "source_property_name": "('§z' + #player_score_sidebar)",
            "target_property_name": "#score"
        }
    ]
}

[still sundial]

How can i set specific score?

[topaz stone]

"$text|default": "#text",
"variables": {
  "requires": "((#text - 'hello') = #text)",
  "$text": "#text2"
}
``` ive tried this but it doesnt seem to work. i think its the `requires` part thats messing up because it works with the default set to either

[normal moat]

you can't use bindings in variables

[still sundial]

Is the '#score's score the objective name?

[topaz stone]

is there a workaround?

[unique swan]

How can I make the dynamic button vertical, so the buttons are side by side?

[obsidian crest]

set the orientation of the stack_panel to "horizontal"

[unique swan]

I'm asking how can I add the stack panel horizontally only side by side?

[still sundial]

?

[cunning escarp]

would anyone know why my .lang file is only renaming one item instead of each item in the list?

[obsidian crest]

wrong channel

[cunning escarp]

i was told to go here-

where am I supposed to go?

[cunning escarp]

where am i supposed to go for .lang file issues?

[earnest wind]

Hi

Is it possible to remove the recipe book panel and button in survival mode?

[cunning escarp]

u could use a texture pack that has an invisible sprite of the button as a way to “get rid” of it

but otherwise ive got nothin

[restive crag]

Is there something wrong here? I get the ancestry something error thingy like that with $text_button.

    "button_toggle@common_toggles.light_text_toggle": {
        "$toggle_name": "$name",
        "$text_button|default": "",
        "$button_text": "$text_button",
        "$toggle_view_binding_name": "$binding_name",
        "$toggle_size|default": [30, 30],
        "size": "$toggle_size"
    },

[opal aurora]

Did you bind any value to $text_button

If yes, but still having error, try adding its "default" value

[restive crag]

Nope, I use it but i didn't put anything to string

[opal aurora]

That's why

[restive crag]

Oh ok

[restive crag]

Still shows even if I don't add the $text_button

[opal aurora]

You NEED to add something to $button_text

[restive crag]

So I need to add something to text_button ?

Ok

[restive crag]

How would I achieve blur effect?

[opal aurora]

use blur textures, you can't do with json ui

[restive crag]

Do you have images for it? Maybe

[opal aurora]

"bilinear" is also not what you need

[opal aurora]

no

[restive crag]

Huh? Isn't that what makes image blur?

[opal aurora]

it kind of works if on small sized images

[restive crag]

What do i use then?

[opal aurora]

only functional properly if you use image panel size larger than the actual image size

example: image [ 16, 16 ] on image panel [ 64, 64 ]

[restive crag]

Ohh OK 👍

[unique swan]

How can I put a space between buttons?

[acoustic ivy]

Then whats the better way

[unique swan]

How can I provide space between buttons?

[restive crag]

Quick reminder for you guys, if you like put any font(example MinecraftTen) in a label and then add text that contains \n, the font is gonna reset to normal font.

[normal moat]

yeah

[unique swan]

so how can i separate the background?

[unique swan]

i can't separate the background

[opal aurora]

the game acts \n as a special unsupported character if using minecraftten font

[hexed briar]

any .ttf fonts in general.

[restive crag]

Is there a workaround for this? I still need the minecraftten font.

[normal moat]

no workaround

[hexed briar]

you need to create each labels with each offset manually

[normal moat]

yeah

[opal aurora]

either adding each separate label control into a stack panel, or limiting x size

those are my ideas, still don't know how they made that possible inside marketplace worlds

[broken trail]

inside marketplace worlds

wdym

[normal moat]

he means marketplace worlds have the line break in ttf fonts. i think

[broken trail]

yea I know but where exactly

[opal aurora]

example from the incredibles dlc

(uh it's just limiting horizontal size)

[hexed briar]

probably both limiting horizontal size and line spacing.

[normal moat]

yeah

[lean nexus]

how do i make a custom image background for my server_form?

Like how do i make that background invisible and have a custom one?

[cunning helm]

Do you think it's possible add an icon at the left of the text?

Like so

yeah but what element that I should pass to bind

idk how to get items amount data in here X<

can you see please

[normal moat]

?question

[limber quartz]

How to ask a good question!

Be specific and include relevant details about the question upfront.
• What are you trying to accomplish?
• If you have code, which part is not working?
• What have you already tried?
• Have you searched the Bedrock Wiki?

[dark island]

I got a server_form.json file from youtube and added form.body() but it didn't work, what's wrong?

[dark island]

Dm?

[normal moat]

nope

[dark island]

so can you tell me why?

[normal moat]

idk? maybe a problem with script or ui, idk.

[dark island]

No, I definitely downloaded it in another json, I tried it, but it didn't work, let me see it here, if you want, there is no problem.

take a look maybe the body wasn't added

[dark island]

JSON UI is tough!

Welcome to JSON UI!

If you are reading this, there is a good chance that you were inspired by The Hive, Galaxite, or some other addon or server. Welcome! This is the right place to learn about these topics.

To get started in learning JSON UI, we recommend you check out the Wiki first: https://wiki.bedrock.dev/json-ui/json-ui-intro.html.

However, please be aware of these things:

• JSON UI is much tougher than other addon topics.
• JSON UI is 100% only documented from vanilla reference and reverse engineering. There are no documentation directly from Mojang.
• We will not give you step-by-step instructions on how to create UI from Hive/Galaxite.

JSON UI is one of the toughest addon topics, so please be patient. Try and attempt small tasks. Ask concrete, answerable questions. We won't spoon-feed you.

[dark island]

I'm trying, but it gives an error, what happens if you add it?

[normal moat]

i dont do work

[dark island]

then I add the body code to the server_form.json file because I can't add body to my form

it can't be added, so it's like there's something missing

hello！ LeGend

[dark island]

I put this in the server_form.json file it didn't work .d

[dreamy quarry]

I try a lot but failed X<

[normal moat]

idk then

[normal moat]

make a forum post for question

someone may answer

[dark island]

No, I want to add a body, it doesn't work, so "test": { There is a panel named, should I add it to it?

[dark island]

Will it work if I put it in the controls section?

[normal moat]

you just use the vanilla server_form.json

[dark island]

@normal moat So where should I add this?

Ohh

[normal moat]

ui folder

[dark island]

I'm not saying that, where should I put it in the server_form.json file

[dark island]

can you add it, i added it, it gave an error again

[normal moat]

wdym by you add it. it's your code and i said what to do. it is very easy

[dark island]

I added bro, it didn't work, as if there is an error somewhere, I can't see it, what would happen if you help me''

[normal moat]

put vanilla server_form.json in RP/ui folder

If this isn't the problem, then your script is wrong

[dark island]

can you see if i added it right, it's a hassle

[normal moat]

this is the file, put it in ui/ folder

[dark island]

Isn't this mcpe's original ui?

[normal moat]

yes

[dark island]

I wanted my own server_form.json file

[normal moat]

?jsonlint

[limber quartz]

Json Lint

Linting is the ability to validate code as correct, or incorrect. JsonLinter is a website that will point out json-formatting issues like mismatches curly braces for you.

Link: https://jsonlint.com/

[normal moat]

go to the site and check for syntax errors in your own file

[dark island]

so to that

[dark island]

It says there is an error in the long form }

I don't understand how long_form can be wrong

[stiff urchin]

how to create custom boss life bar?

[dark island]

bro just fix it so you don't lose anything please

[dark island]

@normal moat bro the site you posted says there is no error but when i enter the game it kicks me out of the game why?

[acoustic ivy]

how do i make a server form fit the entire screen in every Gui scale modification

[unique swan]

Hi, I want to add 2 forms to my server_form.json file, how can I do it?

[cunning helm]

ah, idk how to add this LOL

[plain heath]

how do I make multiple ui's using action form? like if the title is this than activate this ui and so on

maybe someone has an example pack

[acoustic ivy]

https://youtu.be/pVRmjbLyCC0

[wintry crater]

with file used in actionform?

[restive crag]

server_form.json

[wintry crater]

                      {
                "chest_ui@chest_ui.chest_panel": {
                    "layer": 2,
                    "bindings": [
                        {
                            "binding_name": "#title_text"
                        },
                        {
                            "binding_type": "view",
                            "source_property_name": "(not ((#title_text - '§c§h§e§s§t') = #title_text))",
                            "target_property_name": "#visible"
                        }
                    ]
                }
            }

i still dont understand json ui, how can i makeit visible if the title is "cosmetics"? (this is from Herobrine64)

[normal moat]

#title_text = 'Cosmetics'

[wintry crater]

uhh what does this code do? '§c§h§e§s§t'

[normal moat]

It is just a way to detect if the title contains this. Then show that form.

because the color codes don't appear in text

[restive crag]

How do grid_position works?

[normal moat]

[ 0, 0 ] position on a grid

according to grid dimensions

If grid dimensions are [2, 2] then, grid positions are -

@restive crag

[restive crag]

Can we set their sizes, offsets and anchors?

[normal moat]

sizes, but no offset and anchors if we take general case

[restive crag]

One more question, how do i edit the button text inside a light_text_button?

[normal moat]

?? $button_text

[restive crag]

offset*

[normal moat]

$button_offset

[restive crag]

Oh ok

[last pollen]

What's the name of these 2?

[unique swan]

How can I put a space between buttons in mcpe?

so □ □ like this

buttons like this

[last pollen]

"padding": {
}

uhm

not finished

sorry

"padding": {
    "size": [ 2, 2 ]
}

[hexed briar]

it's pudding

actually I don't know anymore

both pudding and padding are confusing

why not just name it to space

[unique swan]

what i want is just add space to custom button

[last pollen]

Pudding is a yummy fooooooooooooood

[last pollen]

padding = space

[hexed briar]

air is not a foooooood

[cunning helm]

Not quit sure but I fucked up somewhere lol

don't pay attention to the missing textures

[unique swan]

why button can't detect command

?

[unique swan]

The buttons are too combined, how can I separate them?

buttons too close

[acoustic ivy]

Add padding between them

[unique swan]

It is not added because it is a custom button.

[restive crag]

Is it possible to use multiple view bindings in a one element?

[mortal monolith]

Yes

[restive crag]

OK good to know

[mystic heart]

Yes but you can just wrap the buttons in a panel with extra sizing, aka "size": [ "100%cm + 4px", "100%cm + 4px" ]

[restive crag]

I kinda have the problem that is @unique swan facing too, I have tried that, it just puts all buttons in one place, I have tried "size": ["100% + 10%", "100%c"], it increases the dynamic panel but not increasing the pudding between the buttons, and also I have tried adding a pudding element which also didn't work out.

[mystic heart]

It sounds like you have the padding set up wrong somewhere. If it puts all the buttons in one place, it sounds like the size is invalid (and set to 0), which can happen if your child element size depends on the parent and the parent element size depends on the child, which is invalid. Try setting the wrapping panel to an exact size and see if that works.

[restive crag]

i have set up "size": ["100%cm + 4px", "100%cm + 4px"] inside the long_form_dynamic_buttons_panel, is that wrong? And I also tried adding my custom pudding inside dynamic_buttons controls. I'm also a bit unsure on what you mean on "Try setting the wrapping_panel to an exact size".

[mystic heart]

instead of using percentage, use an exact value. Such as [ 32, 32 ]

I haven't used that button before so I'm not sure if that setup is wrong or right. But you need to take the element which has the defined size, and then wrap that in a panel

[restive crag]

What element are you pointing at?

[mystic heart]

The wrapping panel

[restive crag]

You mean the element inside the long_form_scrolling_content controls?

[mystic heart]

I'm not really sure what your setup looks like so I'm not sure what the elements are you're referring to. The wrapping panel is usually not set up for most templates, so you have to make it yourself. You make a panel element and then put the button in the controls. Then instead of using the button in the stack panel/grid, you use the panel you made.

[restive crag]

Would you like to see it on DM?

[mystic heart]

Alright

[last pollen]

Help

[mortal monolith]

Hello, how to make a scrolling Panel?

I tried but it doesn't work

[restive crag]

You could look at server_form.json for examples.

[mortal monolith]

Oh well

[nimble mortar]

how can i do a different inventory screen when the entity has an especific name?

[restive crag]

there's #player_name binding but its hardcoded sadly.

[timber harness]

-can a namespace have more than one screen?
-can a screen controled by a screen?
-can i make conditional rendering based with screen?

[hexed briar]

1. No
2. No, but will or may crash
3. Yes, though it will be very limited because using variable value will probably not work since there's no referencer to them. aswell screen element was mostly the actual root element, you may unable to make conditional rendering with variables.

[timber harness]

thanks

[timber harness]

can i use the #visible binding?

[hexed briar]

only bindings works for now, don't put ignored or crash I guess

and turn off your reply pings

[timber harness]

so the best way to make conditional ui is with screen? or changing the screen's element

[timber harness]

sorry

[hexed briar]

why are you still reply ping

[timber harness]

oh srry that was the last one

[timber harness]

so what do you think the best?

[hexed briar]

changing child elements in screen element will do.

[timber harness]

aight thx

[wintry crater]

how can i move it here?

[restive crag]

Yes

[hexed briar]

anchor.

[wintry crater]

uhhh where?

[restive crag]

Inside the long form

[hexed briar]

long form element.

[wintry crater]

do i need to rejoin the world to see changes?

[hexed briar]

Obviously, the UI is client-side.

expect the requesters like script-api that send packet to show server forms.

[restive crag]

Is there a way to force hidegui without the need to click to a button or anything?

[hexed briar]

well actually yes

hide gui is actually bindings and can be to set true/false everytime you press f3 or hide GUI button

[restive crag]

What is the binding?

[hexed briar]

you can force to hide by I guess using visible or ignored property

{
        "binding_name": "#hud_visible",
        "binding_name_override": "#visible",
        "binding_type": "global"
      },```

this is also used for hud alpha thing in the game settings.

{
        "binding_name": "#hud_alpha",
        "binding_name_override": "#alpha",
        "binding_type": "global"
      },
      {
        "binding_name": "#hud_propagate_alpha",
        "binding_name_override": "#propagateAlpha",
        "binding_type": "global"
      }```

Be warned though, that mobile controls won't go away.

[restive crag]

Uhhh why? The normal hide gui though hides mobiles controls but still makes them usablr

[hexed briar]

because it works differently.

sure f3/hide gui turns that bindings into true but in the hardcoded side like touch controls wont either go away

[timber harness]

  "main_screen_content": {
    "type": "panel",
    "size": [0, 0],
    "controls": [
        {
          "server_form_factory": {
              "type": "factory",
              "control_ids": {
              "long_form": "@server_form.long_form",
              "custom_form": "@server_form.custom_form"
          }
        }
      }
    ]
  }

how to add more control ids? without interupting

[hexed briar]

your best bet is just make those touch controls texture as invisible

[restive crag]

Hmm I'll try that

[timber harness]

or its impossible

[hexed briar]

That are hardcoded, though alternatively you can duplicate that element and use condition rendering with it

[restive crag]

  "main_screen_content": {
    "type": "panel",
    "size": [0, 0],
    "controls": [
        {
          "server_form_factory": {
              "type": "factory",
              "control_ids": {
              "long_form": "@server_form.long_form",
              "custom_form": "@server_form.custom_form"
          }
        },
          "server_form_factory": {
              "type": "factory",
              "control_ids": {
              "long_form": "@server_form.custom_long_for.m",
              "custom_form": "@server_form.custom_modal_form"
          }        
      }
    ]
  }

[hexed briar]

use condition render with both elements I suppose

[timber harness]

i don't want to interupt the size type controls

[hexed briar]

It's not stack panels so no it will not.

[timber harness]

can i just do main_screen_content/server_form_factory/control_ids

[hexed briar]

No.

[timber harness]

oh

[timber harness]

but if i do this and some other pack do this too, its gonna override

[hexed briar]

Use the modification property I guess??

[restive crag]

Nope with conditional rendering, it shouldn't override

[timber harness]

how?

[timber harness]

example?

[restive crag]

I find JSON UI weird cus like not #toggle_state returns true and #toggle_state returns false..

[restive crag]

Uhh it's the form that should be conditionally rendered

It's up to your form

[timber harness]

so i add binding that hide the long_form when title is something?

[hexed briar]

https://wiki.bedrock.dev/json-ui/json-ui-intro.html#modifications

[timber harness]

can i add controls ids with that?

[hexed briar]

Why

[timber harness]

i want custom form

[hexed briar]

you can

[timber harness]

example? and what way?

[hexed briar]

.

just make it reference to your new elements

from there you can add that if you wanted

[timber harness]

ok thx

can this just be like this

  "main_screen_content": {
    "controls": [
        {
          "server_form_factory": {
              "type": "factory",
              "control_ids": {
              "long_form": "@server_form.long_form",
              "custom_form": "@server_form.custom_form"
          }
        },
          "server_form_factory": {
              "type": "factory",
              "control_ids": {
              "long_form": "@server_form.custom_long_for.m",
              "custom_form": "@server_form.custom_modal_form"
          }        
      }
    ]
  }

or use modifications

[timber harness]

also may i know why it use factory?, can it just be like this instead

  "main_screen_content": {
    "controls": [ { "custom_form1@server_form.custom_long_form": { } }
    ]
  }

[timber harness]

it works

why is this not working?

  "long_form": {
    "modifications": {
      "array_name": "bindings",
      "operation": "insert_back",
      "value": [
        {
          "binding_type": "global",
          "binding_name": "#title_text",
          "binding_name_override": "#text"
        },
        {
          "binding_type": "view",
          "source_property_name": "(not (#text = 'testing'))",
          "target_property_name": "#visible"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

oh must be an array

[hexed briar]

nope

mobile controls are hardcoded.

[pine matrix]

dang

[opal aurora]

Why, what about some players still preferring classic control scheme

[pine matrix]

It don’t work for my stuff, as some items I made have the chargeable component, which, when mobile players try to mine with them, just use the item instead.

little0959

olá

little0959

Parece que você configurou o preenchimento errado em algum lugar. Se colocar todos os botões em um só lugar, parece que o tamanho é inválido (e definido como 0), o que pode acontecer se o tamanho do elemento filho depender do pai e o tamanho do elemento pai depender do filho, o que é inválido. Tente definir o painel de embrulho para um tamanho exato e veja se isso funciona.

How can I create a 2nd form in 1 server_form.json file?

[indigo bolt]

@normal moat dm Any chance to have a look?

ohh sorry for tagging

[normal moat]

?? i dont even see dms

[limber quartz]

DMs are not ideal

When you ask a question via DM, you are restricting the total number of people who can help you from all potential server members to just one. Asking in the public channels is the best way to get a good, community-sourced answer to your question, allowing other observers to give their input.

While you are certainly welcome to DM with each other, please be aware it is against our rules to send unsolicited DMs requesting help.

[indigo bolt]

From where?

[normal moat]

message requests?

[indigo bolt]

I just want to talk about one topic

[normal moat]

Just ask here

[indigo bolt]

How can I create 2nd form in 1 server_form.json file?

[normal moat]

wdym?

[indigo bolt]

I mean, how can I create a 2nd form in the server_form.json file?

There is 1 form, I want it to be in the 2nd form

[normal moat]

I didn't get it

Do you want to change how the layout or how the form looks?

[indigo bolt]

just create 1 or 2 different forms

[normal moat]

conditional render ig

[indigo bolt]

For example, let 1 form B work, 2nd form O let them look different

[normal moat]

You have to conditional render the form B and O so they don't open at the same time and then have to change the controls of the form O to change the look

[indigo bolt]

I want to create the 2nd form and change the view

[normal moat]

Do you know JSON UI?

[indigo bolt]

yes i understand a little

[indigo bolt]

what I want is to have a separate form in 1 server_form.json

[normal moat]

If you know a little, you should check out vanilla files and see examples across the server to know how UI actually works and then try small things like adding text to screen yourself.

[indigo bolt]

I know I can create title based server form, I just can't create another form

[normal moat]

uhh

[normal moat]

see my video on this

[restive crag]

Can we render both long form and custom form at the same time?

Yes or No

[normal moat]

no

[restive crag]

Oh that's unfortunate

[normal moat]

You can still try showing two forms with the same command at the time..

[indigo bolt]

bro there is only 1 title based server form in your video I want to use different long form in the world

[restive crag]

uhh?

[normal moat]

you have to add controls to it and do basic logic in the bindings

[normal moat]

  form1.show
  form2.show
})```

true but I modify the game files so it’s kind of not a problem for me lol

Yeah

no?

[normal moat]

I don't understand the code xd

though ik react

oh

[hexed briar]

json-ui ≠ ore-ui

this is json-ui territory

:trolage:

Check the first pinned message :D

all your base are belong to us

[past stirrup]

Nooo!!

wait

i don’t have a base

[hexed briar]

oh

[restive crag]

I'm confused why'd they made json-ui data driven then no docs at all

[timber harness]

they say its deprecated

[hexed briar]

If I did research correctly

the docs was supposed to be out during ore-ui indev or where the new bedrock ui concept was shown on some E3 or something

but instead, it's deprecated and they doesn't seem to put docs anymore

[normal moat]

bcuz of ore ui probably

[past stirrup]

i don’t think they will ever release the docs

because they’re replacing it with oreui

[normal moat]

yeah

[restive crag]

hm fair

[past stirrup]

hey at least oreui is more capable and powerful :D

[timber harness]

why

why its more powerful

[normal moat]

react, html, css, js

[past stirrup]

you can do a lot more stuff that are not possible in jsonui

[normal moat]

more control

[past stirrup]

yeah

you can even listen to key presses :>

[hexed briar]

con: performance drip

[past stirrup]

have you used the new play screen?

[timber harness]

like what

[past stirrup]

^

[normal moat]

yeah it's noticeable for me :(

[timber harness]

thats it?

[past stirrup]

nope

[hexed briar]

I already did after 4 hours of the .22 release.

[restive crag]

bet they gonna limit it

[hexed briar]

aswell already made a tweet for it

[timber harness]

name why its better

[past stirrup]

you can listen to button presses, you can embed external videos, you can even connect it to scriptapi

[timber harness]

thats it?

[past stirrup]

no

[restive crag]

I think it can pretty much do anything unless they limit it

[past stirrup]

yeah

[hexed briar]

how are they gonna data-driven it

that's the question

[past stirrup]

client scripting

[timber harness]

with json?

[past stirrup]

nope

js

[normal moat]

client scripting?

[past stirrup]

Yes?

[timber harness]

is oreui html?

[hexed briar]

yeah I bet someone definitely gonna make malicious thing out of it

[past stirrup]

HTML, CSS, TS and React

[timber harness]

mojang probably limit it

[timber harness]

why they not make ui engine like roblox does

[past stirrup]

roblox has a ui engine?

[restive crag]

There is actually but only on china

[hexed briar]

If they run sandbox ingame I swear to god my phone gonna explode

[timber harness]

roblox is an entire game engine bruh

the way you make ui is so easy

[past stirrup]

i know about that but i’ve never tried making something in roblox

[timber harness]

just add a screengui (screen) and then you can add frame buttons and stuff

[normal moat]

ahh like visual editor?

[indigo bolt]

@normal moat I did as you said

[hexed briar]

roblox is probably beloved because of LUA scriptings and realtime editor.

[timber harness]

yes, you can just grab things move it around

[indigo bolt]

I tried on your server_form.json file

[haughty island]

Does anyone know why command auto complete button is not working now in my pack that used to work in 1.16

[timber harness]

yea

but roblox ui not use html

[restive crag]

ye

[hexed briar]

yeah, I like lua scripting ngl

It looks nicer than js to me

[timber harness]

hmm

it doesnt have class

[past stirrup]

👀 scriptapi with lua when?

[timber harness]

imagine minecraft has its own app to make game's modifications

[normal moat]

fr

[haughty island]

I have this in chat_screen.json for command auto complete. It used to work in 1.16 but now it doesn't

"[email protected]_button": {
     "$button_content": "chat.down_autocomplete",
    "$pressed_button_name": "button.chat_autocomplete"
  },
  "[email protected]_button": {
     "$button_content": "chat.up_autocomplete",
    "$pressed_button_name": "button.chat_autocomplete_back"
  }```

[hexed briar]

I had written lua stuff back probably 10 years ago and probably forgot now

[restive crag]

whyy

[hexed briar]

but js is uh, I don't know

no comment

[haughty island]

Uh

[timber harness]

ask ai to convert your lua to js

[past stirrup]

nah

[indigo bolt]

why can't it work?

[haughty island]

Huh

[normal moat]

bro how can i tell if you don't give the file..

[normal moat]

check the button ids in the vanilla files to confirm

[haughty island]

I did

It hasn't changed

I have previous chat button too and it works fine

[indigo bolt]

you had a server_form.json file, I can send it if you want.

[haughty island]

I don't understand why command auto complete doesn't work

[unique swan]

@normal moat hello bro How are you

[normal moat]

not good

[timber harness]

lol

[past stirrup]

why?

[normal moat]

people keep pinging me for help here lol

[restive crag]

@indigo bolt @unique swan is the same person 💀

[haughty island]

I checked everything and nothing seems to work

[past stirrup]

ahh okay

[normal moat]

im removing the @ sign in my name

[hexed briar]

will not help I guarantee you

[timber harness]

real

[hexed briar]

I been pinged so many times even bought to dms so eh, not happening

this is your curse now

[haughty island]

Can you help me with my command auto complete button for mobile

[timber harness]

a curse for a json ui expert

[hexed briar]

good thing I changed my profession to art

[past stirrup]

Oh god

[normal moat]

atleast i can remove the @ and stop responding to any mesasge

[hexed briar]

that called ignore.

[normal moat]

yeah that

[hexed briar]

also there's option to turn ping off

I think

yeah it was

[indigo bolt]

I accidentally deleted the file so I had to download a new one (I'm making things very difficult)

[haughty island]

I don't like to constantly ask for help but I need my command auto complete button to work so can anyone help

[hexed briar]

you can post questions on the forum and hoping that someone may able to help

[indigo bolt]

I sent you the file

[hexed briar]

bro stop already

[haughty island]

I posted it

[haughty island]

Sorry I accidentally called you

Disadvantage of using discord on mobile

[opal aurora]

Only if it can be data-driven

[past stirrup]

Yeah

but we should be able to create uis using scriptapi in the future

not sure about modifying existing uis yet

but my guess is that we will be able to re-use their routes

[opal aurora]

I want them to be implemented as a resource pack, not behavior pack

So I can use them anywhere

[haughty island]

Can you help me? (Sorry for the ping)

[past stirrup]

there’s already a module (@minecraft/client-ui) and it’s a resource pack only module

[opal aurora]

Oh then good

[past stirrup]

:D

[opal aurora]

But can I use them now?

[past stirrup]

sadly you can’t

yet

[opal aurora]

Ok..., probably part of ore ui

[past stirrup]

iirc one of the devs said that we’re gonna get some components when oreui releases, i hope we get the ability to read and create facets from day one

[opal aurora]

does it mean that i can't add custom buttons/toggles (for visibility toggles or animation triggers) anymore?

[past stirrup]

i’m not gonna say anything because we don’t know yet

[normal moat]

Where did you find this specific module (@minecraft/client-ui) ? I searched the data folder but no result found.

[past stirrup]

the exe file

you’re gonna find some other modules but don’t worry too much about them

[normal moat]

Which exe file 😅 ?

[past stirrup]

Minecraft.Windows.exe

[normal moat]

oh okay, thanks

[indigo bolt]

I sent you a DM, can you have a look, please?

I swear I won't tire your head

[unique swan]

@warm prawn Engeli aç

[unique swan]

hello everyone, how can I add a background to the long_form_panel?

[unique swan]

@normal moat How can I add a custom button to my own server_form.json file?

[hexed briar]

bro

stop pinging LeGend jesus christ

[unique swan]

How can I create a custom button?

[hexed briar]

no one gonna tell if you gonna mass pings and dms like that

[safe root]

I have an image overlayed on screen with /title, how would I make it remove all hud elements apart from the title types

[stiff urchin]

can anyone help me to Position the UI in the right place

[indigo bolt]

Offset

[stiff urchin]

it helped a lot amazing damn you are a genius

[safe root]

why is json ui always so toxic

this is why I don't use these channels

[indigo bolt]

Thank you

[indigo bolt]

json ui is hard to learn takes man's time

[safe root]

I'm not saying it's hard. I'm saying the community around Json UI is toxic for zero reason.

People like you make it hard.

Nvm

other dude was the toxic one

but yea

[hexed briar]

again, people has life too. not just always answering people's questions

and secondly, people kept asking the exact same questions all over again in #1067869374410657962 and therefore increasing insanity to people who still answering like me or LeGend

[safe root]

Apparently people can't read

[hexed briar]

and there's search on a forums or discord search feature where you can find questions easily

turned out they just, went and didn't care anything

hence the toxicity which there's something I can't do about it

there's people who post wiki about json-ui intro everyday and they didn't seem to care or take a read for once

[safe root]

Yeah I know, I just use this discord a professional place to learn, and I come to this channel when I need help and it's always filled with toxicity.

[hexed briar]

It's easy to understand how json-ui works, but what not is people don't care instead going for straight question and answer.

[safe root]

Well my question has merit, because I've tried to get it to work for 12 hours. Searched for previous solutions, tried them and it hasn't worked. So I'm completely lost if you'd be able to help.

[hexed briar]

so what do you want to do exactly

[safe root]

I've got a screen overlay (cctv) which is visible when an actionbar is set to a specific string, and due to the functionality the player has to be in survival/adventure or creative. Thus displaying the Hud elements, I'd like it so that when the same string is used it removes the hud elements, i.e. heart, hunger, hotbar but not the actionbar/title stuffs.

[hexed briar]

you can do the same thing but opposite. instead of having "ignored": "(not $string)", you can do "ignored": "$string" and vice versa.

bindings may work better because you don't have to link everything into factory

[safe root]

I'm using bindings, but I just don't know where it should go to make it work.

[hexed briar]

what does it look like?

[safe root]

Can't send the whole thing but I assume this is what you're looking for.

  }```

[hexed briar]

oh, you've made the whole gui invisible.

maybe try to reference title/actionbar here on hud_content

and remove the both title/actionbar reference from root_panel

then add condition rendering on hud_content like what you did but opposite so it can display

[safe root]

wait 🤦‍♂️ I'm an idiot

got it working xd

[safe root]

Thanks for pointing this out, I wouldn't of figured it out otherwise haha

[hexed briar]

always read the root source first so yeah

every vanilla screens should have the screen element or root element with the same name as file name

e.g hud_screen.json will have hud_screen element etc

from there, you can look each referencers where it from so you can troubleshoot with ease.

[stiff urchin]

I was sarcastic

you have no sense of humor

Ok so I'm really just starting out with JSON UI and I'm wondering if molang can be used in UI, if not then how would I extract a value from a scoreboard

[halcyon spear]

What's the fle name for the error loading wolrd screen?

[timber harness]

i think its similar like server form

[normal moat]

popup dialog

[normal moat]

No Molang, as you're just starting out

[wintry crater]

can someone help me :> how can i add image at the top of actionform?

[quasi acorn]

Can you get scores from the list display?

[toxic comet]

will the new ore ui update change the way animations are implemented?

[hexed briar]

I swear to god that #1067869374410657962 are flooded with stolen UI's

[wintry crater]

        "offset": [
            "-70%",
            "0"
        ],

why this is not working?

how to add value with %?

[hexed briar]

% is a dynamic type of thing.

where every screen size and resolution are matters

so, I guess don't use that and use the fixed value instead

[wintry crater]

i tried the fixed value and when i test it on my phone the ui move too much at left side but on pc it looks normal

[hexed briar]

use anchors instead.

[wintry crater]

ok ill try that

[opal aurora]

and a lot of nonsensical helps

example: adding a button (but "what will it do" is the problem)

[west trail]

That’s only cause not enough people know how to make their own ui’s and rn it’s not easy to learn or do so it’s the best they can do. But I think once Ore UI releases more originality will presume

[hexed briar]

Json-UI in general aren't that hard for those who've learned basic json stuff before.

what hard is people doesn't have the common sense enough to read the wiki.

the tutorial of adding your own UI is literally right there.

even if I wanna contribute on the wiki about how to add your own forms in server forms, people wouldn't even read it

Even myself who has absolutely no knowledge of json-ui back in one day can already get custom npc ui screen working, and just a reminder that npc ui is harder than server forms.

so, json-ui isn't not that hard. it's just common sense that people can't corporate properly.

[restive crag]

JSON UI is pretty easy, just gotta know what element/file to edit.

[mortal monolith]

Yes

It is hard to learn, but in the end it is achieved

🙂

[normal moat]

ahh fr

[hexed briar]

Json-ui is just mediocre in term of difficulty.

not easy or hard, but it's simple enough to understand them

Wiki has where you would implement your own elements on hud_screen

aswell with nearly all tutorials about what that element is and how to use it

[normal moat]

Yeah,
Json ui is hard, for those who don't want to read wiki, use discord search option, see vanilla files, try solving problems themself.

[unique swan]

How can I add a scrollbar to my form?

[timber harness]

jsonui is just kinda hard in general

[acoustic ivy]

We can't talk objectively tho bc everyone has their own level of comprehension some people are smarter and can understand the topic easily with wiki others no

I've been working and trying to learn JsonUI for more than a year 8/18/22 and I'm still at the level of a beginner

And I just recently started to understand the logic, in the wiki for example there's nothing related to server_forms and you would have to rely on discord search for that which sucks bc not always you will find the solution to your issue

Friends, is it possible to create a slot there is more for attchable use

In the player's inventory, where I can leave an equipped item to appear in the player's attchable

Or not?

Can anyone help me with this?

[hexed briar]

No.

[stiff urchin]

nothing at all?

not even the inventory slot for that?

Like leave the item in the slot but appear in the attchable

[hexed briar]

you can't create more slots.
