Events not Emitted/Propagated in ReAction Virtual Group
Hi there!
I'm writing this GUI using ReAction and I'm facing a surprising (to me!) problem. When I "insert" a VirtualGroup, events on the gadgets in the virtual groups are not emitted/propagated and, thus, not received by the main loop. Here is a piece of my code in which, if I comment out the lines marked VIRTUAL, my code works fine, events are emitted/propagated... If I uncomment these lines, no event (mouse clicks) is received by my main loop Code:
PAGE_Add, NewObject( LAYOUT_GetClass(), NULL, GA_TabCycle, TRUE, LAYOUT_Orientation, LAYOUT_VERTICAL, LAYOUT_SpaceOuter, TRUE, LAYOUT_AddChild, NewObject( VIRTUAL_GetClass(), NULL, // VIRTUAL VIRTUALA_Scroller, TRUE, // VIRTUAL VIRTUALA_Contents, NewObject( // VIRTUAL LAYOUT_GetClass(), NULL, LAYOUT_Orientation, LAYOUT_VERTICAL, LAYOUT_AddChild, NewObject( LAYOUT_GetClass(), NULL, LAYOUT_Orientation, LAYOUT_VERTICAL, LAYOUT_SpaceOuter, TRUE, LAYOUT_BevelStyle, GroupFrame, LAYOUT_AddChild, (*ui_object)->CKB_prefs_save_prefs_on_exit = NewObject( ... LAYOUT_AddChild, (*ui_object)->CKB_prefs_should_skip_if_all_rating_low = NewObject( CHECKBOX_GetClass(), NULL, GA_ID, PREFS_SKIP_MODULES_WHEN_ALREADY_RATED_TOO_LOW, GA_RelVerify, TRUE, GA_Text, GetString( MSG_MUI_SKIPMODULESWHENALREADYRATEDTOOLOW ), CHECKBOX_TextPlace, PLACETEXT_RIGHT, CHECKBOX_Checked, prefs_should_skip_if_all_rating_low(), TAG_END), TAG_END), ... TAG_END), TAG_END), TAG_END), // VIRTUAL Tygre |

Does every event get ignored or just the first one?

Isn't that the point of virtual objects, namely that they "do not really exist" and are just placeholders for arranging screen estate? I'm not quite clear what you expect here, i.e. by creating virtual objects.

Presumably he wants more gadgets than will fit in the window; virtual.gadget lets you create such layouts with attached scrollers so that the entire layout can be viewed on a small screen.
The likely cause of the issue is that GA_RelVerify, TRUE needs to be set for the virtual.gadget itself. There is also a minor bug in the current OS release whereby the first click is ignored; this has been fixed for the next release. Last edited by Minuous; 19 July 2024 at 09:59. |

Hi all!
Thanks for your quick replies! Here are few answers: - @Minuous, no events are received by my main loop: I can click the buttons in the virtual object several times, but I didn't receive anything. - @Don, the MSG_MUI_... is a constant for localisation, which I reuse from the MUI GUI. - @Thomas, exactly: I expected to receive the events from the buttons in the virtual object as if they were in the parent layout. (Like in MUI) - @Minuous, you're right , I just added GA_RelVerify to the virtual object, and I receive the events now! Thanks a lot! Cheers! Tygre |
