Pop Up menu?

#1 If you don't want to use the gui (and I don't blame you for not wanting to) then take a look at this behavior for the mouse components you need and this one for the image swapping.

Take a crack at merging (and understanding) them and post your code back here and I'll give you a hand.

#2 Heres My code I wrote. I
================================

if (!isObject(SwapImageOnClick))
{
%template = new BehaviorTemplate(SwapImageOnClick);

%template.friendlyName = "Swap Image On Click";
%template.behaviorType = "Effects";
%template.description = "Switches the image of an object when clicked";

%template.addBehaviorField(image, "The image to swap to", object, "", t2dImageMapDatablock);
%template.addBehaviorField(frame, "The frame of the image to swap to", int, 0);

}

function SwapImageOnClick::onBehaviorAdd(%this)
{
%this.owner.collisionCallback = true;
}

function SwapImageOnClick::onMouseDown(%this, %dstObj, %srcRef, %dstRef, %time, %normal, %contactCount, %contacts)
{
if (isObject(%this.image))
%this.owner.setImageMap(%this.image, %this.frame);
}

====================
But I can't get it to work :(

#3 Any ways I need it to show the blank image onMouseUp so I need to add a differentline too.

#4 Robert,

Just curious, but where'd you get that onMouseDown()?

All of my behavior onMouseDown's look like this:

function MyBehavior::onMouseDown(%this, %modifier, %worldPos)
{
}

theoretically %this is all you're using and it's in the same place, but?

Also, are you setting the image and frame in the editor or elsewhere?

#5 I got the mouse down off of the onCollitionSwapImage Behavior. Im just setting it in the editor.

#6 ok... are you setting the image and frame in the editor or elsewhere? Is the .image and .frame data ok?

You lost me a bit on that last post...

#7 I think ther ok, you have to forgive me im a noob :). And yes I think im setting the image and frame in the editor. Im not setting it in notepad.

#8 Robert,

it looks like the parameters you have in your onMouseDown callback are from the onCollision callback in one of those behaviors. Try using the ones from an onMouseDown callback.

I don't have time to go through it right now but should later on.

#9 Yah the parameters you used in your code(post#2) for mouse down are onCollision parameters I believe, not mouse ones, which you need.

#10 Also,

change "%this.owner.collisionCallback = true;"

in your onBehaviorAdd() function to this:

%this.owner.setUseMouseEvents(true);

The line you have is not needed, but that new one is.

#11 Thanks I got distracted with this Ill try it.
