[Solved] Providing a ScreenController When Loading Several XML Files

Troubleshooting gui
1

Was trying to load several xml files in nifty, rather than packing all the screens into one (as the tutorial suggested), but for my game, I need to provide the screenController to be used AFTER it is initalized, as it is an AppState. (like you could do when doing nifty.fromXml(xml-file,screen,CONTROLLER)

2

you can use

[java]nifty.registerScreenController(new ScreenControllerSuperDuperAppState4000());

nifty.addXML("nifty.xml");[/java]



and then attach it to the AppStateManager when you need it

Ok, thank you so much for the help! May I ask where you found that, I’d just like to know, because I (thought) I’d searched everywhere…

good question and i don’t know (probably the forums somewhere), it doesn’t seem to be in the nifty bible or in the wiki, unless i’m blind also

5

register and addXml are both covered in the Nifty manual … and certainly in the API docs.

6

are you sure register is in the nifty manual? i can’t seem to find it in there.



In any event i added it to the wiki:

@zarch:

I forgot about the nifty manual, and skimmed the API docs, I’ll read through them both next time.



@wezrule:

Thanks for adding it to the wiki.



Thank you both for your help :smiley:
