First off, the text that is in the editboxes and for that label (the one that says Static Text randomly change colors everytime the dialog is started, black and white aren't one of the colors so it's sometimes hard to read. This is happen with the all skins including the MXM Tivo one.

And then there's this. I'm just want to see the test button do anything.
I renamed the CtrlID's to start at 1 - 8 with the Test button being 1. However nothing happens.

OnEvent EventHandler
LoadDialogFromFile MyDialog $ActualPath$\Scripts\TestDialog.xml
ExecuteUIOBject MyDialog
QUIT
:EventHandler
SWITCH %UITriggerID%
CASE 1
MsgBox "You Clicked the Test Button"
ENDCASE
ENDSWITCH
RETURN

Hmmmm... I thought I have it firing the CLICKED event, but it's possible it's not yet.

I'll check it out shortly.

Okay then, so from what I have, it should have popped up the MsgBox when I clicked the Test button with CtrlID="1"?

Well, it looks like a problem with SWITCH and a few other things. I'm tracing through right now.

Color issue should be fixed now, the radio buttons are also fixed.


I just updated the WIP binaries. SWITCH should work, but play with it and let me know.

Ok the Switch stuff does work now. The Static text color is fix but not for the edit boxes.

Now how do we determine if a check box is checked or not? Cause I'm gonna update my EntryMaker script to use the new UI and I"m gonna make so the user checks the options that want to include. Like if the Cover option is left unchecked then it wont bother asking for a name.

Also about the checkbox, are they always checked by default?
Cause the radio buttons have <Selected>true</Selected> while the checkboxes do not.

Well, I asked for good feedback from testers.... rolleyes.gif

Thanks, looks like I have to apply the same fixes to the checkbox and edit controls.

If I get time, I might have another release tomorrow night with a few more goodies. I just had a 40 minute phone conference (thankfully from home) with my Japanese team (the day job, that is) and I'll be going to work very early due to scheduling issues. Saturday, as you may know, is a "special day" and tomorrow I promised the family I'd take them out to eat. Needless to say, it will be hectic.

:::goes to fix issues right now:::

Oh, and as a temporary fix on the edit color, just set a <Color> tag with a value.

I'm still looking at ways to feed the XML back. I may let you use a dialog as an XML handle (but not vice-versa)

I tried <Color>Black</Color> but it didn't work, <Color>0xFF000000</Color> did though. smile.gif

Perhaps you could add that color tag to the radiobuttons and checkboxes too, just to make UI's more customizable.

Something else I noticed;

I took your TestDialog.xml and added another Button to it. In the Simplicity Remix skin the Test and Exit buttons are black. However the 3rd button is transparent. I know this cause I misplaced it and it ended up overlapping the Exit button but I could still see the exit button under it.

I added those as "nameable color fields" - so when I do another update (maybe tonight, even), you'll be able to do that.

Basically, instead of reading it as a number, it will read it as a string, then check the color names before resorting to a numeric. Thanks for reminding me to use that method.

Ok... not only fixed, but I threw a new twist in the "WIP" update I just uploaded.


You should be able to use the XML access routines with a SystemUI object handle. You can't save or open, but the others should work.

Doh.... yet another update has been uploaded just minutes ago. The XML stuff had an issue (XML loaded from file deleted the node before you can access it)

Works nice now, I tested it wink.gif
