The uix.Canvas widget now maintains a selected Tool which configures how
the mouse interacts with the (editable) Canvas widget.
The default Tool is the PencilTool and implements the old behavior: it
draws pixels when clicked and dragged based on your currently selected
Color Swatch. This tool automatically becomes active when you toggle the
Palette tab in the editor mode.
A new Tool is the ActorTool which becomes active when you select the
Doodads tab. In the ActorTool you can't draw pixels on the level, but
when you mouse over a Doodad instance (Actor) in your level, you may
pick it up and drag it someplace else.
Left-click an Actor to pick it up and drag it somewhere else.
Right-click to delete it completely.
You can also delete an Actor by dragging it OFF of the Canvas, like back
onto the palette drawer or onto the menu bar.
Add the ability to drag and drop Doodads onto the level. The Doodad
buttons on the palette now trigger a Drag/Drop behavior when clicked,
and a "blueprint colored" version of the Doodad follows your cursor,
centered on it.
Actors are assigned a random UUID ID when they are placed into a level.
The Canvas gained a MaskColor property that forces all pixels in the
drawing to render as the same color. This is a visual-only effect, and
is used when dragging Doodads in so they render as "blueprints" instead
of their actual colors until they are dropped.
Fix the chunk bitmap cache system so it saves in the $XDG_CACHE_FOLDER
instead of /tmp and has better names. They go into
`~/.config/doodle/chunks/` and have UUID file names -- but they
disappear quickly! As soon as they are cached into SDL2 they are removed
from disk.
Other changes:
- UI: Add Hovering() method that returns the widgets that are beneath
a point (your cursor) and those that are not, for easy querying
for event propagation.
- UI: Add ability to return an ErrStopPropagation to tell the master
Scene (outside the UI) not to continue sending events to other
parts of the code, so that you don't draw pixels during a drag
event.
Add the JSON format for embedding Actors (Doodad instances) inside of a
Level. I made a test map that manually inserted a couple of actors.
Actors are given to the Canvas responsible for the Level via the
function `InstallActors()`. So it means you'll call LoadLevel and then
InstallActors to hook everything up.
The Canvas creates sub-Canvas widgets from each Actor.
After drawing the main level geometry from the Canvas.Chunker, it calls
the drawActors() function which does the same but for Actors.
Levels keep a global map of all Actors that exist. For any Actors that
are visible within the Viewport, their sub-Canvas widgets are presented
appropriately on top of the parent Canvas. In case their sub-Canvas
overlaps the parent's boundaries, their sub-Canvas is resized and moved
appropriately.
- Allow the MainWindow to be resized at run time, and the UI
recalculates its sizing and position.
- Made the in-game Shell properties editable via environment variables.
The kirsle.env file sets a blue and pink color scheme.
- Begin the ground work for Levels and Doodads to embed files inside
their data via the level.FileSystem type.
- UI: Labels can now contain line break characters. It will
appropriately render multiple lines of render.Text and take into
account the proper BoxSize to contain them all.
- Add environment variable DOODLE_DEBUG_ALL=true that will turn on ALL
debug overlay and visualization options.
- Add debug overlay to "tag" each Canvas widget with some of its
details, like its Name and World Position. Can be enabled with the
environment variable DEBUG_CANVAS_LABEL=true
- Improved the FPS debug overlay to show in labeled columns and multiple
colors, with easy ability to add new data points to it.
