been like that since i think couple of .100 previews, they left a feedback page that does absolutely has nothing on it so people can't post a feedback

I have a complicated but geometrical animations (resizing, moving, rotating animations)
My designer was gonna do the animation and send it to me but the issue is that the animation would take 60 frames
If I convert that into a flipbook animation (which is the closest thing to an animation in minecraft), 60 frames is HUGE and will take so much space in the texture pack
But since this is geometrical, would it be possible to use json ui's animations? As I said, the animation is geometrical, so I just need translation, rotation etc
Another thing I'm worried about is that I am bad at making animations myself- I'd only be good replicating existing animations
In that case, is it reasonable to let the designer make the animation anyway and I'd start trying to mimic every frame of that animation into json ui animations?
I don't know what to do and all of this is because json ui doesn't support GIFs which have MUCH less size than 60 separate frames..

Then you're trying to override Minecraft's Json-UI objects, you sometimes can have a merge effect, that is, annotations and unoverrided properties of the initial object are still there. To fix that, override both orientation and texture properties with default values (empty string should be enough)

then, you should try it
as I know, keyboard & mouse control doesn't show the pressed button texture (except Ore UI)
except a few button does show a pressed button texture like dropdown
unreal ravine
Oh i see
manic dragon
Oh i see
It's just that button actions get executed on mouse down event (mouse up for OreUI)
So the form in this case closes before the button can show it's pressed texture
If you make a button that does nothing, you can actually see the button's pressed texture

How are you using it?
pulsar hornet
How are you using it?
i need to read the title text to make the characters of the body of the actionformdata smaller
manic dragon
I meant the code
manic dragon
Try adding the binding for it
{
"binding_name": "#title_text"
}
Yeah
pulsar hornet
Yeah
nope text is still the same size, no errors
i just used
new ActionFormData()
.title(`§T§Y§P§E§4§rWorld Map`)
You won't really get any errors
Sometimes using bindings in variables doesn't work as intended
pulsar hornet
so there is not a fix for that?
jolly rock
It always return small
pulsar hornet
It always return small
in game it never does
pulsar hornet
Right?
number changes the scale of the text and the type is to make the font small yes
pulsar hornet
<@985593016867778590> or another label inside controls?
yes the main label
i need to change the .body() not the .label()
jolly rock
In your code i dont see "font_size": "$font_size"
pulsar hornet
manic dragon
How about using some property bag values and bindings
There are #font_type and #font_scale_factor bindings right?
jolly rock
I think no
manic dragon
I've seen them in vanilla files but didn't try before
pulsar hornet
If you change the default value it changes?
yes
i need it to make base forms also work when my addon is installed and also change size couse 75k characters in a form might make some device crash
why are bindings that hard to use?
manic dragon
why are bindings that hard to use?
Try using this and see if font scale changes
"property_bag": {
"#font_scale": 0.15
},
"bindings": [
{
"binding_type": "view",
"source_property_name": "#font_scale",
"target_property_name": "#font_scale_factor"
}
]
yeah it works fine
manic dragon
yeah it works fine
Well, then you have a solution to your problem
Do some logic in the source property name to achieve what you want
You can add more values in the property bag
pulsar hornet
Well, then you have a solution to your problem
Do some logic in the source prop...
wait a second what do you mean by logic
i do have to do the same thing as "requires" but in property name?
manic dragon
Yes but you'll need to modify that to do something similar to if else
pulsar hornet
fontscale: "(not (#title_text - '§T§Y§P§E§4') = #title_text) ? 0.15 : 0.30"
something like this in the property bag?
manic dragon
You can define property bag value like this:
"#§T§Y§P§E§2": 0.6
Then in source_property_name: "('#' + '%.15s' * #title_text)"
It should work but I'm not sure
manic dragon
fontscale: "(not (#title_text - '§T§Y§P§E§4') = #title_text) ? 0.15 : 0.30"
Ternary operator doesn't exist in JSON UI
pulsar hornet
what is that %.15s *
manic dragon
Gets the first 15 characters from title text
pulsar hornet
json ui is so weird
pulsar hornet
Gets the first 15 characters from title text
can i ask you why 15 characters?
manic dragon
§ counts as 2 characters so §T§Y§P§E§2 is 15 characters

hexed briar
be warned that custom .ttf fonts is experimental.
you can load up packs that uses custom .ttf font, but the game will have to be restarted for it to fully apply.
since the game will cache it, turn it into spritesheet for whatever reason.
you can replace the existing .ttf fonts but it will be there permanently until you clear the cache.
manic dragon
ngl that seems like a pain
hexed briar
it is, that's why it's experimental.
you can't even get the font_metadata.json in the sample pack, and there's absolutely 0 document on this thing too.
you can only get that file by the game assets itself.
oak verge
since the game will cache it, turn it into spritesheet for whatever reason.

oak verge
i had a site that turn ttf to glyph but i lost it
hexed briar
can't load the packs in the server-side anyway since you need to restart the game for it to cache and use them.
the game will NOT cache anything if you apply it right now so yeah
manic dragon
i had a site that turn ttf to glyph but i lost it

hexed briar
you can't use big fonts on this
or literally anything that is beyond 256x without making them extremely big for whatever reason
oak verge
yeah, i played around a bit with that idea trying to remove the gap between letters
hexed briar
i did a funny thing with it when i don't even know about JSON-UI
oak verge
a question about a bad idea i had.
i have a script api addon that cancel chat messages and perform some changes to each letter, how bad can performance get if this was done in json ui, if possible to start with
hexed briar
you just make the glyphs about 2048x and fill it with black color just to make a transition thing
this however, lags or even crash people devices alot.
hexed briar
a question about a bad idea i had.
i have a script api addon that cancel chat me...
shouldn't be bad.
chat messages are based on factory.
oak verge
it is a lot of conditions
hexed briar
this means that element does not exist until you say something in the chat.
you just use that template element and replace stuff whenever you feels like it and the performance wouldn't drop.
also when the chat is completely faded out, the said template element gets eradicated from the memory anyways.
so performance wise, it's shouldn't be bad unless people just spamming, even though if they're spamming. the default chat is limited to 30 total messages on display. can be changed to 5 or 20 if you like it
oak verge
alright, but that logic is to advanced for my json knowledge, lol
i struggled to even make it in js
hexed briar
the replace logic part in JSON-UI is possible pretty easily but each letter may require some complexity.
it doesn't feel laggy or anything either so i guess there's that.
oak verge
the complexity is in the condition part, it depend on the letter and it forms, the letter after and it forms, the letter before and it forms
hexed briar
unfortunately only few people knows it since this is some cutting edge thing and you know people ain't gonna share that either.
hexed briar

yeah, it'll work like that in JSON-UI except bindings.
i'd probably do it in script side rather than UI side

Probably using string formatting to loop through each letter. Then using property bag values to get a replacement for the letter. And then adding that letter to a string which will be empty at first and each replacement letter will be added to it after each iteration.

you cannot do that

This is what I use
alternatively, you can use this:
"dynamic_button": {

"size": ["100%", 32],
"orientation": "horizontal",
"controls": [{}], //your current custom button controls
"bindings": [

}
you can change whatever you want

My grid has 3 columns. I want the buttons' size be a third of the form at all times; meaning I need to use percentages instead of pixels.
I tried 33.33% and it put all the buttons on top of each other. When I go back to [64, 64], it goes back to being normal but still didn't achieve my goal of adjusting button size based on form size (form size is also percentage and changes on how big the minecraft screen is)

I've always known that I need to wrap a child with a panel to add padding and that's what I did
I was able to add left and righ padding of 2px, but when I try to add top padding, the grid gets cut from the bottom and the top padding doesn't get added at all:
"size": ["98%", "95%c"],
"offset": ["2%", "5%"],
manic dragon
The thing with % is that it'll adjust the value according to the parent size
I suppose the parent of scrolling_control has something with %c for its height
So it's adjusting its size according to its child element
Using vertical offset of a % value doesn't work in this case
river flower
Here is the parent:
"ui": { //form panel
"type": "image",
"texture": "textures/tmc_form/background",
"size": ["50%", "80%"],
"controls": [
// other children
{
"[email protected]_panel": {

"anchor_from": "top_middle",
"$show_background": false,
"$scrolling_content": "tmc_form.scrolling_content",

"$scrolling_pane_offset": [0, 0],
"$scroll_bar_right_padding_size": [0, 0]
}
}
]
},
$scrolling_pane_size I change this maybe?
Nah that's probs just the scrollbar
ohh wait scroll_size is size of scroll bar
river flower
`$scrolling_pane_size` I change this maybe?
Okay I'll try this
YEP it worked
imo they should've called it scrolling_content_size
manic dragon
I think it should've worked even without changing the scrolling pane size
river flower
I think it should've worked even without changing the scrolling pane size
something's going on behind the stage with $scrolling_content which is probably what made it not work
manic dragon

Afaik the parent of scrolling_content is a panel so that's probably not it
It could be that the bottom padding was cut off a little bit by the scrolling panel
That'd explain why changing it's size fixed it

is it possible to get text value of other element and use it somewhere?
like this
"hud_text_1": {
"type": "label",
"text": "Sample Text",
"anchor_from": "top_right",
"anchor_to": "top_right",
"offset": [ -4, 4 ]
},
"hud_text_2": {
"type": "label",
"text": "hud_text_1", // "hud_text_1" text value here: Sample Text
"anchor_from": "top_right",
"anchor_to": "top_right",
"offset": [ -4, 8 ]
}
I think you can use resolve_sibling property in the binding right?
So you can use #variable in other sibling controllers

how do i add the paperdoll to my form?

damn thanks so much

i hope it'd be through resource packs instead
surreal ridge
how can i is there a way i could use $texture like this?
because puttting it as this doesnt work
nvm i got it
weak cape
i hope it'd be through resource packs instead
i think it will be in both rp's and bp's
opal aurora
i think it will be in both rp's and bp's
bp for some scripting features, i can agree

This works well:
"card_animation": {
"anim_type": "offset",
"easing": "linear",
"from": [0, -150],
"to": [0, 0],
"duration": 3
}
This doesn't do the animation at all:
"card_animation": {
"anim_type": "offset",
"easing": "out_cubic",
"from": [0, -150],
"to": [0, 0],
"duration": 3
}
Why is out_cubic broken? even though the vanilla tpack uses it just fine

does anyone know if theres cases of huge amounts of variables crashing the game?
I have a massively dynamic form that uses a lot of flags and it seems to be crashing every 1-100 form opens

Thats alot of flags
indeed, but the buttons need to be able to horizontally split all the way up to 6 buttons across
i dont think theres a better way to do it

Omg, ore Ui? :0
it's not

does "cache_screen": false work on server forms

This works well:
```json

Help please 😔

does "cache_screen": false work on server forms
it's false by default

boring time

thats a lot of controls
at least space your code out man
like
"title@npc_interact.title_label": {}
"close@npc_interact.x_close_button": {}
i dont think its broken, i think sometimes it depends on the element using the easing or you just can't notice it which is for a lot of cases with some of these easing types

any feedback on this, idk if i like the button texture

Okay I’ll try to increase the duration
dusty rune
is it possible to add new text type? like text but different fonts I could use sometimes in actionbar for example
manic dragon
Yes
manic dragon
.
dusty rune
adds new text, just like that?
manic dragon
There are some issues with using custom fonts like this
Like the pack has to be in the global resources, Minecraft has to be reopened to load the fonts etc.
manic dragon
adds new text, just like that?
Yeah add font information in the font_metadata.json and use it in font_type
manic dragon
btw that file was from an older version of Minecraft
I don't have the new one
dusty rune
I will still check it
at least I know its possible
dusty rune
darn dis thing is experimental then
oh well, at least got the answer for it
manic dragon
Yeah it's experimental
hexed briar
darn dis thing is experimental then
oh well, at least got the answer for it
yeah, can't use it without restarting the game for it to cache first.
dusty rune
ngl this needs to be global is the worst part
hexed briar
the fact that you can permanently changing the default MinecraftTen font that will be like that the rest of your life until you reset the game.
dusty rune
needed it for sans/papyrus fonts for my dialogue system
guess I will still be waiting for your, btw uh since you lost your backups does this mean you lost your ui system too?
hexed briar
even if taking the resource pack out, this thing will be unchanged.

i rewrote it already since yesterday, but it's a font system first and not dialog system.
since the GUI im working on (actually showcased several times now) does use that system heavily.

wait does this meant to use font too at first?
hexed briar
yeah, not the actual custom ones btw just the normal modified fonts.

What's this about?
hexed briar
there's alot of unused fonts mojang didn't use so i did as reusing them
hexed briar
still you need to use it as global right?
No.
basically this uses the same spritesheet font and not TTF font.
hexed briar
essentially, it works like plug and play.
dusty rune
so it works fine
hexed briar
no need to restart the game, put the pack anywhere you want
custom font still loads.
dusty rune
nice... one thing I need to check
does it break every update or it's chillin?
knowing this thing is uh
expermantel
hexed briar
it does not and fortunately, my system isn't experimental.
hexed briar
honestly since deltarune literally uses font colors as entirely different fonts, i might aswell use glyphs or something.
dusty rune
why colors have there own fonts 😭
hexed briar
What's this about?
A thing that converts string to actual custom fonts in real time without the needs to restart the game or any issues that custom TTF fonts has.
hexed briar
why colors have there own fonts 😭
idk but they have 4 font colors... as SEPARATE FONTS
literally not recoloring the existing font whatsoever, just a entirely different font with same but different color.
dusty rune
I know toby's code is messy since undertale
but is it still there even in deltarune lol

Woah
Do you loop through the string and change the characters to different Unicode, modified glyphs I mean
jolly rock
It could be better, why not use 100% of the width for the text?
gaunt apex
It could be better, why not use 100% of the width for the text?
that's still 1 option that I made, maybe more
hexed briar
Woah

No, no loop. just convert it if it's detected.
Originally the system is gonna be pure JSON-UI, a actually working font system at certain point but I feel that it's not optimized so i went with server-side script instead.
manic dragon
Oh so the conversion is on the server-side
hexed briar
fyi the custom font IN the GUI are client-side.
like, that one i didn't convert it to server-side that time
i just wanna get a working prototype so i reused my old client-side custom font system as that.
manic dragon
I think I lack the knowledge to understand this properly
Btw where's this system used? In an addon?
hexed briar
tl;dr — crap ton of bindings.
unfortunately this system isn't used anywhere since, well. i didn't even release any addons ever since 2023.
manic dragon
Yeah makes sense it has a lot of bindings
hexed briar
and also i made alot of very experimental or cutting edge stuff, i.e proper text splitting, optimized percentage system etc
this included too.
aswell a search bar that works regardless of case.
manic dragon
You've been on this for a long time now
No wonder you did all of that
manic dragon
aswell a search bar that works regardless of case.
I was trying to make something like this
But I saw some errors after like 20 characters and the bindings were not optimized at all
hexed briar
yeah, ive joined this discord server for JSON-UI purpose and it seems that i do JSON-UI stuff for 4 years now.
hexed briar
I was trying to make something like this
But I saw some errors after like 20 ch...
yeah i faced that too and it's intentional thing really.
JSON-UI doesn't support character value conversion atleast what i find.
basically how it works is value turns into their perspective character that works like JS.
since that doesn't work, i had to add a check which character is which, replace it. and basically that's how my old custom font system works.
the big con is that the entire characters list has to be checked in a loop and that ain't performance friendly either knowing bindings does not play nice with it.
that's why i went to script/server-side instead.
the search bar is essentially the same except that i limit to 10 characters total and after that it's normal. or alternatively i could add extra variables that contains both uppercased and lowercased and it'll work surprisedly performance free.
manic dragon
the search bar is essentially the same except that i limit to 10 characters tota...
Yep how I tried worked great until 20 character or so
After that it doesn't work properly and even stops at 40 characters or so
I was using a loop to get each character and using property bag to convert it to lowercase
hexed briar
for me, it works limitless but i made a limit due to performance reasons.
i think ive reached like 120~ at certain point and my phone can't handle it anymore so i call the experiment paused for awhile.
after the limit, the search goes normal so case sensitive is back after 10 characters.
manic dragon
120 chars is a lot. I don't think it needs any more than that
I'll try to optimize mine but might give up if things don't work out properly
hexed briar
my phone is low-end nowadays so i probably consider it as very optimized system that i ever done tbh
but, it seems that I don't have any use for it. yet.
fortunately, i made another search bar instead uses both of my cutting edge tech stuff and performance free aswell.
i just doing stuff like these in my free time tbh, since they're experimental and that, i tend not to use them for performance reasons
though i spend my time optimizing rather than new stuff, somehow i even optimized the settings screen to the point it reduces loading time by 25%.
manic dragon
I'm a bit late to JSON UI but I experiment with things in my free time. Ultimately it's going to be replaced
hexed briar
yeah, this is why ive moved to other stuff i.e texture pack btw
probably pixel arts and spritesheet stuff aswell.
manic dragon
though i spend my time optimizing rather than new stuff, somehow i even optimize...
They have a lot of stuff in the settings screen. It's hard to understand properly. But I managed to completely overhaul this screen. Although it increased the loading time a bit
hexed briar
i basically, well.
rewrote literally every screens.
including buttons, sliders and stuff aswell
so everything i do, i know where to find and fix it directly.
while making sure it has more customizability than vanilla, such as themes (really customizable btw), better slider looking, all toggles has their own descriptions, dropdown looking like something from sodium mod
all of this with 20% reduced loading time.
no wonder why most people calling my stuff very optimized somehow.
manic dragon
What actually effects the loading time?
I use fully custom buttons or toggles mostly and they seem to be good enough. Vanilla ones have a lot going on in them
