Sincerely ImNotGUI;
Sincerely ImNotGUI (Also stylized as Im!GUI) is collection of scripts for immediate GUI, For GameMaker: Studio. Originally developed for easier debugging on GameMaker: Studio: 1...
It is also a parody (sort of) of Omar Cornut's Dear ImGUI.
Features:
- "Fast" UI drawing - accomplished by abusing GameMaker's Sprite-batch
- "Simple" UI system - Everything goes into the DRAW event! : suitable for quick debugging. No need to setup your UI elements at first for quick debug!
This code:
Produces this result:
Looks boring? Well, Take a gander at this beauty, It's made with Im!Gui!
(just saying, Y'know.)
Im!GUI Comes with 5 elements:
- Label
A wrapper for draw_text_colour.
Usage :
iui_label(x, y, string, colour);
iui_label_alpha(x, y, string, colour, alpha);
iui_label_transform(x, y, string, x-scale, y-scale, rotation, colour, alpha);
iui_label_shadow(x, y, string, colour, shadow-x, shadow-y, shadow-colour);
iui_label_underline(x, y, string, colour, line-thickness, line-offset-y); // line-thickness : underline thickness, line-offset-y : offset for underline
iui_label_ext(x, y, string, colour, alpha, line-seperation, width); // = draw_text_ext();
- Button
A clicky button, With unique ID. (It comes with no-draw variant, Which can be used for "custom" button-like behaviour.)
Usage :
iui_button(x, y, width, height, string); // The string means both ID and LABEL... see the section "The ID and LABEL system" for explaination.
iui_button_nodraw(x, y, width, height, string); // Spooky invisible button D:
- Tabs
A collection of "Buttons" that acts like one element that returns the index of currently active button, Which can be used for things like switching view panels and such.
Usage :
iui_tab(x, y, width, height, array-of-string, tab-index, trim-mode);
// array-of-string : the array containing texts for tabs
// I've included the pack() script for easier array creation :
// pack("A", "B", "C") = {"A", "B", "C"}
// It's a script for making array.
// tab-index : The current tab
// trim-mode : This determines the behaviour when text in tab "Overflows" :
// Value ranges in 0 ~ 2 :
// 0 - Do nothing, Let it Overflow.
// 1 - Trim the text. (EX : "Gnome clongis" -> "Gnome cl...")
// 2 - Expands the Tab's width to fit the text.
// NOTE : this script also returns current tab index; Better use with variable, like this :
foo = iui_tab(x, y, width, height, array-of-string, foo, trim-mode);
- Slider
An element that can be dragged to adjust it's value
Usage
// horizontal
iui_slider_h(x, y, value, width, min-value, max-value, ID); // the ID system is same as button.. See below.
// vertical
iui_slider_v(x, y, value, height, min-value, max-value, ID);
- TextBox
An input field which the Users can type into. (Also comes with number-only variant.)
Usage
// horizontal
iui_textbox(x, y, width, height, text, ID); // see below for explaination for ID
iui_textbox_numberonly(x, y, width, height, text, ID); // number only, The user can only input numbers (ex: 42), floating point numbers (ex : 3.14), signs (+ & -) in them.
// NOTE : this script also returns the current text; Better used with variable, like this :
bar = iui_textbox(x, y, width, height, bar, ID);
The ID and LABEL system
You can use "###" and "##" for set the ID of some elements (ex : buttons) to your desired one. (see below)
How-to use:
Just import the IMNOTGUI.gmez file from the folder EXTENSION_GOES_HERE, In the GameMaker: Studio.
Call script iui_init(); to initialize ImNotGUI in your controller object's Create event.
Call script iui_update_io(); to update Inputs in your controller object's Step event.
Now you can adding stuff / designing your GUI in the Draw event of your controller object!
BUT before using any of iui_* (aka GUI-related) scripts in the Draw event, You must call iui_begin(); to Ready up the ImNotGUI...
And after finishing your UI, You must call iui_end(); to help ImNotGUI prepare for next frame.
Example :
/// Create event ///
iui_init();
/* And much more stuff you would normally shove into your Create event... */
/// Step event ///
iui_update_io();
/* And much more stuff you would normally shove into your Step event... */
/// Draw event ///
iui_begin(); // ImNotGUI Activiated!
iui_button(...);
iui_rect(...);
iui_hfashkfgjhfgaskdgfjsfdgjdghsfkdgjd(...);
iui_end(); // Endut! hoch hech
You can check the "demo" project of ImNotGUI in demo-project, For GameMaker: Studio 1.
(Or you can run DEMO.exe to see the interactive demo.)
Fiddling with the demo, You can out check how things work and how you should use it.
Feel free to play around with it!
