Greg.Mildenhall Posted May 2, 2018 Posted May 2, 2018 Having recently moved from 2.3.1 we just noticed the Interface plugin has been deprecated, but it's not obvious from the documentation what's replaced it?
morbid Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 Hi, yes, this plugin is deprecated and currently has no substitution. In fact, it still works. Do you have any plugin related issues?

Greg.Mildenhall Posted May 3, 2018 Author Posted May 3, 2018 It's working fine for us at the moment, but we use it extensively and will need an alternative before it falls into disrepair.
morbid Posted May 3, 2018 Posted May 3, 2018 Well, we have plans for this plugin. It'll be integrated into the engine or upgraded but I can't say when. We still use it with AppProjection, so it wouldn't be forgotten :) How to submit a good bug report --- FTP server for test scenes and user uploads: ftp://files.unigine.com user: upload password: 6xYkd6vLYWjpW6SN
Greg.Mildenhall Posted June 26, 2018 Author Posted June 26, 2018 If it's not being released in the next release, we'd appreciate if you could instead expose its API to C++ because we're in the process of porting our UI code from USC.
silent Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Hi Greg, As far as I remember, Interface plugin is already exposed it's API via InterfaceBase.h located in the Interface plugin directory.

Greg.Mildenhall Posted June 26, 2018 Author Posted June 26, 2018 Is there an example of how to do this anywhere? Particularly of how to create a Widgets::Window or Widgets::DialogColor, or how to get the same functionality by embedding a WidgetWindow or WidgetDialogColor in an InterfaceWindow.
silent Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 Hi Greg, There are a bunch of samples available in SDK Browser: How to submit a good bug report --- FTP server for test scenes and user uploads: ftp://files.unigine.com user: upload password: 6xYkd6vLYWjpW6SN
Greg.Mildenhall Posted June 28, 2018 Author Posted June 28, 2018 Thanks, Silent. The InterfaceWindow example got us most of the way there. Fortunately we don't need to operate in the Interface plugin's absence so with a bit of work we managed to just modify each of our usages of Widgets::* classes to use InterfaceWindow directly.
