Hi people o/

hi, very good!

Basically I'm thinking to make clicking the internal part of the knob to correspond to a knob press, while clicking the rest (i.e. the remaining outer ring) can be used to turn the knob

what do you think? I've had trouble with disabling the knob when hovering etc. (although that might be me not understanding properly how dear imgui should be used)

according to my link from last time, the one with issue in imgui, but which had nice code, you could draw a button in the middle of the knob and check when the mouse is over it, then disable knob handling for this time and handle only the click

her is the link again, the response from ocornut at the bottom shows how to push flags for disabling, but i haven't tried it yet

could also be that there has to be a boolean flag in the knob code, to be able to react on it

this one (in bool Knob()): ImGui::InvisibleButton(label, ImVec2(knobSize, knobSize + lineHeight + style.ItemInnerSpacing.y));

which got me thinking now... what is the use for it if the return value is not taken into account?

the original knob code is not by me, but heavily modified

but HandleActiveKnob() is where the click on the knob is actually detected

this command, right after creating the invisible button is relating to it -> bool is_active = ImGui::IsItemActive();

ah, correct

so you can push states or pop them, also setting attributes or getting them, relates always to previous item, if not specified differently/globally, like windows-related functions do

I tried to do this (albeit not very methodically though, by trial and error) but I thinkg pushing a disable flag disabled everything

I guess so, since the button I added after pushing the disable flag was also not working. Come to think of it though, my code was conditional on the invisible button being hovered - which might have been masking the problem

maybe I have to retry this, since I'm now doubting what I did :P

don'T know if oyu see the smiley, but it should be ImGui :: Push...

ok, let me check out what's the expected behavior. but indeed, I don't fully grasp how the UI interaction is polled with dear imgui, which is why this has taken me a while

(no, it showed up in plain text)

ok, my client shows smilies

so you don't have handlers like in the classic UI with interrupts

you can see it as the step by step UI, so when you expect something happening when clicking, then you have to add it to the specific element and only there

btw i'm glad I found out about the framework. I had a solar eclipse simulation I'd written in the past to which I wanted to add visualization to and never got to it because of how daunting it can be. maybe now I'll dig it up and have some closure :P

sounds good, if you have questions also there, i would be glad to help you

hi

hmm, so I got it working with the clickable internal circle approach, but I get multilple knob presses per click

knobPressed = (diff_x*diff_x + diff_y*diff_y) < knobClickableRadiusSqared;

so, I might have to utilize the imgui flow to get the expected result as you suggested BAndiT1983

as the whole method is only for the knob, it's imgui way, it should be placed there, as HandleActiveKnob is a bit misleading, it's handling only the rotation/dragging

so it now also "returns" whether knobPressed

but i haven'T seen your solution yet, so can't say much there yet

why does imgui require invisible buttons and such? shouldn't it be easy to extend an existing 'control' like a slider to the new drawing/handling?

yep

there are also other methods which are not described that much, like ItemHoverable, but i have used the original design which was approved by Omar (the founder of imgui)

original thread which i'Ve used -> https://github.com/ocornut/imgui/issues/942

never seen the addon before, but my modifications were larger, so it wouldn't help either, also uses InvisibleButton as drag handler

i know that we can place one somewhere near the knob, but it's a nice exercise to learn more about it and reuse the knowledge for more sophisticated widgets

will be used to have some visual feedback when testing serial communication locally

you've tapped into my camerafeed? :)

;) my plan was to grab some 16bit depth image, but SDL image is refusing to give me the data, just 8bit like normal

because the round corners at the top area and the strange jagged corners at the bottom

so there are 2 imgui windows of 800x480

by the way, it's already working, not just a static preview, uses a fragment shader to adjust brightness with fixed value in code for now, haven't added any other property yet

nice!

unlikely

unless you get the remote display via USB working :)

this is my target, as serial communication would allow to do a lot of stuff, same with virtual preview, as it will react only to proper serial data, like the camera to the one from real board

and yes, it's Bertl

Yes, I've watched a few videos of apertus, the most interesting one was the April Fool's video of Bertl and se6ast1an

how's this -> https://pasteboard.co/J7AS6lqM.png

back

Changed the opacity of text in the logo image from 1 to 0 then trimmed the transparent background to get the ring

Conversion to header files?

No, will do that tomorrow as I'll sleep soon, is that okay?

any progress with makefile yet?

Hello! I am Ankit Lade. I am currently studying in 2nd year at the Indian Institute of Science Education and Research(IISER), Bhopal. I am amazed to see the work done by the apertus organization. I wanted to contribute to and learn more about the project and how everything works. But when I started reading the "contribute" section, I got confused with all the technical terms. I wish to contribute to your open source work and wou
