[SOLVED] stencil - WidgetSprite in HBox.

[lars.saalbach]

Hey Unigine,

 

stencil isn't working for sprites.

 

<hbox stencil="1" width="10"  export="1" name="statusbarLayer">
    <sprite texture="imagepath.png"/>
</hbox>

 

If I'm using a label:

<hbox stencil="1" width="10"  export="1" name="statusbarLayer">
    <label><text>012345678910111213</text></label>
</hbox>

 

it work's neither. (updated)

In my opinion thats a bug isn't it?

 

PS: I tried to set the align in texture like: align="expand" etc. and it didn't work aswell.

As far as I know, stencil is supported only for WidgetVBox and WidgetGroupBox.

Hey Manguste,

 

HBox is deduced of VBox - so this feature should be inherited there aswell like your documentation.

 

But at all with a VBox or a GroupBox it doesn't work.

Oops, indeed, my bad. Please send us a minimal test scene in this case.

Thanks, this issue is passed to the developers.

Lars,

 

The idea is as follows: if stencil is set for a container, it will cut widgets by its bounds. And that happens when its childen you want to cut have the align="overlap" flag. Children that do not have this flag set, will simply increase the container size. And since recalculated bounds include the child widget in this case, there will be absolutely no effect by setting a stencil flag.

Hey Manguste,

 

thanks for your tip, I'll test it this evening and give feedback.

At all it would be cool to find such tips in the documentation.
