Constructor & Destructor Documentation

BackendGuiSFML()

tgui::BackendGuiSFML::BackendGuiSFML

(

)

Default constructor.

Warning

setGuiWindow has to be called by the subclass that inherits from this base class before the gui is used

Member Function Documentation

convertEvent()

TGUI_NODISCARD bool tgui::BackendGuiSFML::convertEvent	(	const sf::Event &	eventSFML,
		Event &	eventTGUI )

Helper function that converts an SFML event to a TGUI event.

Parameters

eventSFML	The input SFML event
eventTGUI	The output TGUI event

Returns

Did the SFML event match on a TGUI event and has the output event been written to?

You typically don't need this function as you can call handleEvent directly with an sf::Event.

getWindow()

sf::Window * tgui::BackendGuiSFML::getWindow

(

)

const

Returns the window that was provided to the gui.

Returns

Window that was set via the constructor, setWindow or setTarget

handleEvent() [1/2]

bool tgui::BackendGui::handleEvent

(

Event

event

)

Passes the event to the widgets.

Parameters

event

The event that was polled from the window

Returns

Has the event been consumed? When this function returns false, then the event was ignored by all widgets.

handleEvent() [2/2]

bool tgui::BackendGuiSFML::handleEvent

(

sf::Event

event

)

Passes the event to the widgets.

Parameters

event

The event that was polled from the window

Returns

Has the event been consumed? When this function returns false, then the event was ignored by all widgets.

You should call this function in your event loop.

sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event) {
    gui.handleEvent(event);
}

mainLoop()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::mainLoop ( Color clearColor = {240, 240, 240} )

overridevirtual

Give the gui control over the main loop.

Parameters

clearColor

background color of the window

This function is only intended in cases where your program only needs to respond to gui events. For multimedia applications, games, or other programs where you want a high framerate or do a lot of processing in the main loop, you should use your own main loop.

You can consider this function to execute something similar (but not identical) to the following code:

while (window.isOpen())
{
    while (window.waitEvent(event))
    {
        gui.handleEvent(event);
        if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
            window.close();
    }
 
    window.clear({240, 240, 240});
    gui.draw();
    window.display();
}

Implements tgui::BackendGui.

setGuiWindow()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::setGuiWindow ( sf::Window & window )

protected

Sets the window which the gui should use.

Parameters

window

The SFML window that will be used by the gui

startTextInput()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::startTextInput ( FloatRect inputRect )

overridevirtual

This function is called by TGUI when focusing a text field (EditBox or TextArea). It will result in the software keyboard being opened on Android and iOS.

Parameters

inputRect

The rectangle where text is being inputted

Reimplemented from tgui::BackendGui.

stopTextInput()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::stopTextInput ( )

overridevirtual

This function is called by TGUI when unfocusing a text field (EditBox or TextArea). It will result in the software keyboard being closed on Android and iOS.

Reimplemented from tgui::BackendGui.

updateContainerSize()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::updateContainerSize ( )

overrideprotectedvirtual

Reimplemented from tgui::BackendGui.

updateTextCursorPosition()

void tgui::BackendGuiSFML::updateTextCursorPosition ( FloatRect inputRect, Vector2f caretPos )

overridevirtual

This function is called by TGUI when the position of the caret changes in a text field (EditBox or TextArea). If an IME is used then this function may move the IME candidate list to the text cursor position.

Parameters

inputRect	The rectangle where text is being inputted
caretPos	Location of the text cursor, relative to the gui view

This function currently only has effect on Windows.

Reimplemented from tgui::BackendGui.
