Hi everybody,
i have benn struggling with a problem for hourse now: i’ve got a menu in which a text should move from left to right and when it has finished it should start again; sounds pretty easy…
Here’s the important part of the layout:
[xml]<panel id=“textPanelTop” height=“20%” width=“100%” childLayout=“absolute”>
<effect>
<onStartScreen name=“fade” start="#00" end="#ff"
length=“12000” startDelay=“4000” oneShot=“true”/>
</effect>
<image id=“textTop” width=“100%” height=“100%” filename=“Images/text_1.png”
x="${CALL.getOffsetLeft()}" y=“0”>
<effect>
<onCustom customKey=“moveIn” name=“move” mode=“toOffset” offsetX="${CALL.getOffsetRight()}"
length=“32000” startDelay=“7000”/>
</effect>
</image>
</panel>[/xml]
And the code:
[java]
public int getOffsetLeft(){
return (-1) * textTop.getWidth();
public int getOffsetRight(){
return nifty.getRenderEngine().getWidth();
}[/java]
In the bind-method i initialize the nifty-variable and call this:
[java]
private void moveElements(){
textTop.startEffect(EffectEventId.onCustom, new MoveInEnd(), “moveIn”);
}[/java]
Now the problem seems to be very noobish but it is like that: the nifty is initialized in the bind-method but the layout calls getOffsetLeft() and getOffsetRight() before that, so i get no values for the offset…
I tried it first to move it in from left and move it out right (without any offset) but i wasnt able to reset it and do it in a loop.
I hope someone could help me
Thank you
