[Nifty 1.3] Listbox with width=”xxx%” ? [Abort]

Troubleshooting gui
1

Hi,



I have another question. On listboxes this time :



I have tried the new system and it works fine but :

I can’t manage to create a listbox without a static height.



For what I have understood, what defines the height of the listbox is the number of displayed lines.

What if I don’t know this number of lines ?



For example I want to have a listbox that fill 50% of my screen. Whatever the screen resolution is.

On a 800x600 resolution, it will have 10 lines.

On a 1027x768, it will have 15.



I can do it via code if it’s not possible in the xml.

But the ListBox class doesn’t contain a method to change the number of lines displayed. Should I get another Nifty control class for that?



Thanks in advance



Edit :

I’ve just seen another minor problem :

When the slide bar is highlighted and the number of line in the listbox change, the slide bar is updated but not the highlight effect.



See examples below :

For the first problem, is it something that can be done with the current system ?

Maybe I should just switch to a window with a HUD ( I have tried it yet. But from what I remembered, I thinl it’s one evolution of this 1.3 version )

yes, the ListBox in 1.3 will only display a fixed number of lines (specified by the “displayItems” properties) and this can’t currently be changed :confused:



I understand your problem but this is currently not possible, sorry :confused:

Well, I will manage without it.

I will try scrollPanel insted for that kind of list. I stop this post here because I already have another one which speak about ScrollPanel :slight_smile:
