Immediate Mode Graphical User Interface for Tools

HUI

OVERVIEW

The HorusUI library allows you to quickly develop GUIs for your applications by leveraging the ease of use provided by immediate mode GUI concepts. No need to design your GUI layout and writing many lines of boilerplate GUI preparation, imgui takes care of layouting and making sure every widget you add to the system has an unique ID, gets drawn and responds to events. Ideally you should be familiar with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immediate_Mode_GUI. There are other imgui libs out there, dear-imgui which is more like a debug GUI and Nuklear which resembles HorusUI. HorusUI was specifically designed to create game editor tools or similar types of applications.

NOTE: The library is still work in progress, changes will occur until stabilization

QUICK SAMPLE (C++)

HUI

    auto huiCtx = hui::createContext(hui::GraphicsApi::OpenGL);
    auto wnd = hui::createWindow("Sample", 1000, 800);
    hui::setWindow(wnd);
    auto theme = hui::loadTheme("../themes/default.theme");
    hui::setTheme(theme);

    auto largeFnt = hui::getFont(theme, "title");

    while (true)
    {
        hui::processEvents();
        hui::setWindow(hui::getMainWindow());
        hui::beginWindow(hui::getMainWindow());

        // user drawing code
        glClearColor(0, .3, .2, 1);
        glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT);

	// horus ui
        hui::beginFrame();
        hui::Rect panelRect = { 50, 50, 350, 500 };
        hui::beginContainer(panelRect);
        hui::WidgetElementInfo elemInfo;
        hui::getThemeWidgetElementInfo(hui::WidgetElementId::PopupBody, hui::WidgetStateType::Normal, elemInfo);

        hui::drawBorderedImage(elemInfo.image, elemInfo.border, panelRect);
        hui::pushPadding(15);
        hui::gap(15);
        hui::labelCustomFont("Information", largeFnt);
        hui::button("Activate shields");
        static bool chk1, chk2, chk3;
        hui::beginTwoColumns();
        chk1 = hui::check("Option 1", chk1);

        hui::nextColumn();
        chk3 = hui::check("Option 3", chk3);
        hui::pushTint(hui::Color::cyan);
        hui::button("Browse...");
        hui::popTint();
        hui::endColumns();
        static float val;
        hui::sliderFloat(0, 100, val);
        static char txt[2000];
        hui::textInput(txt, 2000, hui::TextInputValueMode::Any, "Write something here");
        hui::space();

        static f32 scrollPos = 0;
        hui::beginScrollView(200, scrollPos);
        hui::multilineLabel("Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.

        hui::line();
        hui::button("I AGREE");
        scrollPos = hui::endScrollView();

        if (hui::button("Exit"))
            hui::quitApplication();

        hui::popPadding();
        hui::endContainer();
        hui::endFrame();
        hui::endWindow();
        hui::presentWindow(hui::getMainWindow());

        if (hui::wantsToQuit() || hui::mustQuit())
            break;
    }

    hui::shutdown();
