Now here is an interesting plugin for DBPro. It allows you to create and use option screens in DBPro (the game not the editor) and with similar code, allows you to use a main-menu screen. Manual and examples are supplied. The file (in a zip file) is supplied as an 18kb (0.018 mb) file. Enjoy!

[EDIT] Actually about 19 kb but who cares

---

cool

---

nice job

---

Heres an update, it puts in a couple more cool commands in.

About 36kb, just overwrite all the files

---

What new commands?

---

interesting pugin THX

DrawOB(Width,Height,ImageNumber) - Draws the dialog box onto the screen. Use during a seperate loop.

DrawTitle(ImageNumber) - Draws a titlebar above the dialog box.

DrawOBToolBar(Height, Color) - Draws a toolbar on your screen for use in the main loop.

TitleClicked() - Returns a 1 if the title has been clicked.

DeleteTitle() - Deletes the titlebar if it exists.

DrawCommand(ImageNumber,CommandNumber,X,Y) - Draws seperate commands onto the box. Use in the same loop as the DrawOB command and use after the DrawOB command.

DeleteCommand(CommandNumber, Previous) - Deletes the specified command.

GoThroughCommands() - Returns the number of the command clicked (0 if none)

DeleteAll() - Deletes all the commands, the dialog box and the titlebar (if existent)

CommandClicked(CommandNumber) - Returns a 1 if the specified command has been clicked.

IMPORTANT - For the plugin to work, you must copy the variable block from below into your dba file. This must be copied for the plugin to work, and the code must be above the code where you call the plugin functions.

please post what functions so we know and dont have to download it open it then read the readme just to decide if we want it or not

Sure. I can't think of any way to improve my plugin - and I have no bugs reported so far. Any ideas?

---

Maybe it already exists, but what about some command that will change picture if cursor is above picture.

---

That would be an idea. I'll start work.

---

OK, I\'ve created an update. It has an extras command: MouseOnCommand(CommandNumber). You will not need to use this command to do what you say, Mean Mashine.

In the DrawCommand function, there is an extra parameter, OCOImageNumber. Set this to the image that will be displayed when the mouse in over the command.

Also, I\'ve fixed a problem with the DrawOB function, a simple copy-paste error, and two sets of media which you are free to use in your application. (That makes the file about 460 kb (0.46 mb))

Updated Command List:

DrawOB(Width,Height,ImageNumber) - Draws the dialog box onto the screen. Use during a seperate loop.

DrawTitle(ImageNumber) - Draws a titlebar above the dialog box.

DrawOBToolBar(Height, Color) - Draws a toolbar on your screen for use in the main loop.

TitleClicked() - Returns a 1 if the title has been clicked.

DeleteTitle() - Deletes the titlebar if it exists.

DrawCommand(ImageNumber,OCOImageNumber,CommandNumber,X,Y) - Draws seperate commands onto the box. Use in the same loop as the DrawOB command and use after the DrawOB command.

DeleteCommand(CommandNumber, Previous) - Deletes the specified command.

MouseOnCommand(CommandNumber) - Returns a 1 if the mouse is over the command.

GoThroughCommands() - Returns the number of the command clicked (0 if none)

DeleteAll() - Deletes all the commands, the dialog box and the titlebar (if existent)

CommandClicked(CommandNumber) - Returns a 1 if the specified command has been clicked.

Any more ideas?

I've got a problem with my forum profile - meaning I can't edit mesages or upload files. (Featured with my previous post) So all my Update files are on my forum:

http://www.bbfree.com/FortFN/index.php?s=c2dab564e4b7261c7a73a6b1f9c4fc3c&showforum=9

It was nice to have my code featured on the newsletter! Although they made a mistake by saying it was a DLL - it is not, it is a dba file!?

It's not a valid zip file. WinRAR won't open it.

Try Winzip - or if you have XP, the built-in zip tool
