GUI Downloadable

[redmarine]

I was just wondering if you guys would make it possible to download the GUI and import them which are posted on forums?
A guy asked how to download GUI and I thought it would be cool to implement such a feature.

...
Thats IMPPSSIBLE to do since GUI on the site is read by the gui tags then the php that makes what you see dose it thing

 

[ady_illidan]

if they cannot make the trigger put it in a map
simple

GUI = Graphical User Interface.

Which GUI are you referring to, the trigger tags?

[TRIGGER="Example"]Example 001
Events
Conditions
Actions
[/TRIGGER]

Wolverabid, they are obviously refering to the "TRIGGER" tags.

The only way I can invision this being done is if the is some kind of copy button which copys the trigger to clip board that WE can paste it. This however may not be as easy to make as it sounds as the format of copying triggers would have to be investigated properly.

Untill then, people can always post it in the form of JASS as you can always CnP JASS into a blank trigger and it will work.

The only real way you could copy triggers is if, like DSG said is in Jass, or if theres a demo map with the trigger.

 

[Pyritie]

You could auto-generate demo maps.

Or copy something from WE in GUI, then paste it on notepad. See what comes up.

That would be kinda cool to just let it create a demo map with the GUI trigger inside it.

Uhm

They already do that with spell maps......

 

[redmarine]

I was suggesting that GUI triggers which are posted here will be downloadable. Some people don't know how to make some triggers.

 

[Herman]

Ohh

I see your point

Yeah that would be very very helpful for those new to triggering

 

[Wolverabid]

DSG already detailed the problem guys:

... some kind of copy button which copys the trigger to clip board that WE can paste it. This however may not be as easy to make as it sounds as the format of copying triggers would have to be investigated properly.

That's the problem: one can easily copy an entire GUI trigger from the boards as text, but WE won't allow it to be pasted into a map. JASS scripts? No problem!

 

[DesKaladA]

Not true wolver

There are ways for certent languates to maiplate the clip bord and allow you to paste data from another os

i had a nice example of a script to do that but my svn server has died allong with mai source code

Well, if you can manage to recreate it, post it here and the administration will consider its implementation: it sure sounds handy and useful!

 

[PurgeandFire]

You could auto-generate demo maps.

Auto-generating pages is on thing, while auto-generating maps is another.

Even with programming, it would be nearly impossible due to the fact that if there is a mistake written in the code, or it is freehand, then it would just not know what to do. Another thing is, is that I don't think, even via coding, you can open Warcraft III WE, paste the code, save it, retrieve the file, then attach it.

And it would eat bites faster than a hungry hippo near a swamp of whatever it likes to eat.

But good idea, if only it was possible.

 

[Dr Super Good]

It is possiable but, like mentioned eariler, would require a large ammount of research into how WC3 copies GUI triggers to clip board. Currently no one has done this and we do not have to time to look into it. If someone makes a system of converting text back to GUI which can be pasted from clipboard, then we may consider using it but until then it will stay like it currently is.

If you hate it so much, simply switch to JASS as you can eassily CnP JASS trigger scripts into your map via clipboard.
