New GUI & Small GUI Control Bug

[Inverness]

I just made the most graphics ever in my history on Graal and after it I noticed a very little bug with the GuiScrollCtrl, apparently the contents of the control overlap the horizontal scroll bar by one pixel, considering my GUI is the only one that uses the full space available in the frame, it would normally be unnoticeable.

View the text at the bottom of the Console window in the attachment.

Also, comments on the GUI graphics are appreciated.

Amazing!

I like the GUI but i think it could be a little bit more shaded

Well the idea was for the entire thing to be semi-transparent but I have to wait for next Graal version before I can implement that without changing the image files themselves, and I would prefer not to do that as it defeats the purpose of gui controls.

good graphics cant you just adjust the height of the scroll/text window itself?

[Inverness]

extent changes the width and height of the scroll window itself, not where its contents are displayed.

Reminds me of Half-Life 2 =D.

Nice

Thats exactly what I was duplicating.

Then you win!

P.S. I wish there was a thumbs up icon smiley, but that should be enough

After a bit of contemplation I decided to finally integrate the alpha into the images themselves, this will prevent any customization by the client for which I had hoped. Until Stefan releases that alpha option that is. Using png rather than jpeg to prevent compression marks.

Console is using default transparency rather than custom this time.

The Inventory window is from an old script, the top two frames above the scroll are meant to show the selected item icon and its name and info, those frames are GuiControl objects using border 5, which is a bitmap, which is the same bitmap as the buttons.

What are you talking about? Content size would not have anything to do with the scroll window's bounds.

Invern modify the extent of the text itself to size it, Awesome update btw Good Luck with this! :P

Great update! GuiBitmapBorder was better before though

You need to change the extent of the text I'm pretty sure. I had a similar problem once.

I don't think you understand how the GuiScrollCtrl works. It doesn't matter if the width or height of the text is 2000 pixels, the scroll will still clip it in the same area relative to its position.

You're not understanding the concept of the scroll window.

There are certain variables you can set in child controls of a scroll control that let it do as you say but by default, you can set any child control to any size you want it it won't be clipped.

Thats nice but the viewing area of the scroll control is the problem here, not its contents.

Ahh sorry, I must not have read everything you had said. My bad!

The only problem with it is the height of the viewing area for the scroll control is one pixel too large, lol.

I believe there are variables like childwidth and childheight or something like that but that might only be for frame controls or resize controls.

[Inverness]

That doesn't make sense considering scrolls can have more than one object in them, besides I didn't see those variables when I took a look at the ones for the control.
