Hey there!
I thought that you guys might want to take control of
win32 functions, such as creating buttons, edit boxes and so on.
- Combine AppGameKit with Win32 -
So, I've made that nifty library just for you
What does it look like?
What can you currently do with it?
-
Create & manipulate buttons
-
Create groups
-
Create & manipulate check boxes
-
Create & manipulate edit boxes
-
Simplified displaying message boxes
-
Open save & open dialog and get path from the output
-
Manipulate window - Strip it completely from title bar and all / Set it to fullscreen / Change dimensions
What's yet to come?
-
Radio buttons
-
Dialog boxes
-
Menu
-
?
Please note, that library is Tier 2 only
... because Tier 1 doesn't allow any plugins. For now hopefully.
Not wasting more of your time, here is how to set up the library
1. Put
window_manipulation.cpp &
window_manipulation.h next to template.cpp.
2. Open Core.cpp and inside it
#include "window_manipulation.h"
3. Go to line
151 and under it paste following code:
case WM_ERASEBKGND:
{
HBRUSH g_hbrBackground = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(GETCOLOR(0), GETCOLOR(1), GETCOLOR(2)));
HDC hdcStatic = (HDC)wParam;
SetBkMode(hdcStatic,OPAQUE);
RECT window;
GetWindowRect(GetDesktopWindow(), &window);
FillRect(hdcStatic,&window,g_hbrBackground);
return (LONG)g_hbrBackground;
break;
}
case WM_CTLCOLORDLG:
{
HBRUSH g_hbrBackground = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(GETCOLOR(0), GETCOLOR(1), GETCOLOR(2)));
return (LONG)g_hbrBackground;
}
break;
case WM_CTLCOLORSTATIC:
{
HBRUSH g_hbrBackground = CreateSolidBrush(RGB(GETCOLOR(0), GETCOLOR(1), GETCOLOR(2)));
HDC hdcStatic = (HDC)wParam;
//RECT window;
//GetWindowRect(GetDesktopWindow(), &window);
//FillRect(hdcStatic,&window,g_hbrBackground);
SetTextColor(hdcStatic, RGB(0, 0, 0));
SetBkMode(hdcStatic, TRANSPARENT);
return (LONG)g_hbrBackground;
}
break; Inside template.cpp
#include "window_manipulation.h"
5. Inside window_manipulation.cpp change:
int r = 210;
int g = 210;
int b = 200;
To RGB which you use for all the button's background. For example,
when your buttons are on blue background, set this to:
int r = 0;
int g = 0;
int b = 200;
You're done!

Up to date tutorials are in the post below! Or either look at the documentation:
DOCUMENTATION
void SetParams(int fullscreen, char* window_title, int width, int height);
FULLSCREEN - pass 0 for windowed or 1 for fullscreen. When passing 1 width and height doesn't matter.
----------------------------------------------------
int AddEditBox(char* window_title, char* text, int x, int y, int width, int height, bool multiline);
Everything's self explanatory, but the last argument:
MULTILINE - pass false to have one line, non-scrolling text. Otherwise you get richbox.
----------------------------------------------------
int AddButton(char* window_title, char* text, int x, int y, int width, int height);
----------------------------------------------------
int AddCheckBox(char* window_title, char* text, int x, int y, int width, int height);
----------------------------------------------------
void AddGroupBox(char* window_title, char* text, int x, int y, int width, int height);
Adds a decorative group box. Text is group's name which is displayed within it.
----------------------------------------------------
int GetButtonPressed(int button_nmb);
Check if button has been pressed / checkbox is selected
----------------------------------------------------
char* GetEditBoxText( char* window_title, int nmb );
Get edit box text.
----------------------------------------------------
int GetEditBoxLenght( char* window_title, int nmb );
Get edit box's text lenght.
----------------------------------------------------
char* OpenDialog(char* files);
char* SaveDialog(char* files);
See tutorials for deeper explanation.
----------------------------------------------------
void SetEditBoxText(char* window_title, int nmb, char* text);
Set's edit's box text.
----------------------------------------------------
void ProcessWIN32( void );
Process everything. Put this at the end of the loop.
----------------------------------------------------
void SetGUIClearColor(int r, int g, int b);
// TODO
----------------------------------------------------
void Msg(char* text, char* title);
Display message box. With OK option only.
----------------------------------------------------
void SetItemActive(int nmb, bool active);
Disable/Enable a button or checkbox or radio button.
