GUI Render inner Window

[norbert]

Hi,

i am start to wite a GUI Skin Engine.

 

I have a question about Render Elemements inside a Window.

 

My Idea is to create a seperate buffer for each Window.

The Window Buffer has the same size as the Window inner Part.

 

The Problem is that the

DrawImage(GetColorBuffer:TTexture(Self.Buffer), Self.posX,Self.posY, Self.width, Self.height)

Texture are flipped.

 

Or someone has an idea for a better method, Pixmaps ?

 

Gruß

DrawImage(GetColorBuffer:TTexture(Self.Buffer), Self.posX, Self.posY+Self.height, Self.width, -Self.height)

I think this plays into my question of SetViewport. I think that will clip any drawing after it to the rectangle you pass to it. Go to the Lua code assets and look for Josh's GUI. Then look at the control.lua and inside DrawKids he uses something like SetViewport(Vec4(self.gx, self.gy, self.width, self.height)) and then draws the control. When he's done he calls it passing null which must reset it to the entire screen again.
