UI question

[tagg1080]

A lot of kewl looking ones have gone up..


How do you guys do buttons?

There is the draw-button and add it as an item to a dialog, but i can't seem to get that one to do anything.

Then there is the screen buttons, but those don't have images.


grrrr


How did you guys do functional image filled buttons?

lol, do you have a link to anyone who actually did this, with functional buttons with an image overlay?

I'm not sure this is possible yet, but I'm most sure that it will be, soon..

Create a Dialog -> Set Dialog Background Image to blank.dds -> Create a Dialog Button for last created Dialog -> Set it to type Button -> Set Last Created Dialog Item Image to "ur texture"(warning: Buttons have a different kind of textures overlay. You can check the default UIs buttons to see how the layout on the texture is placed. Buttons use 2 textures. Hover Image and Image. Both need to be changed to a proper button texture to get it working.) -> Same for Hover Image -> Set last created Dialog Item to a var.

To trigger the button:
Event - A dialog item is clicked(or smt like that it was)
Condition - Clicked dialog item == ur button variable
Actions - W/e you want.

Dialog - Set (Last created dialog item) Tiled flag to false for (All players)

Use this so you dont need to care about image sizes.
