Pad selectors(or "radio" selectors)

[billv]

The current assignment I got from Trog is a bit hard, so i took another detour.
Here's some pad horizontal/vertical Pad selectors.
Has 3 main features, that prevent me from building a damn new selector every 5 min...
1.Choose amount of selections
2. Re-sizable
3. Has an output for alternate values, ready to go..
Have done small test with PM and is working great.
NEW VERSION A FEW POSTS DOWN....

This is very cool.

There's a small error when you click on the borders between the selectors.

small error when you click on the borders

Yeh, your right. Thanks mate. I left the mdown on float when it should be int.
Bugfix:
In MouseLDown, change

Code: Select all

(For horizontal Selector..)
@x=x       # change this to
@x=x.to_i
(For vertical Selector..)
@y=y       # change this to
@y=y.to_i

BTW...a better example of this sort of thing is available...
check out the selector in this fsm by trog....creates columns/rows at the same time...

small error

..is still there ....can't find the fix yet...
Selectors are not recommended unless you know what your doing and can fix/rebuild.

I finally found the bug...was looking in wrong place for ages...
Here's the fixed versions...

Bug was here... > was changed to >= in both lines.

Code: Select all

    x=0                                     
    @points.times do |x|                             
    @pos[x]=@y if @x >= @p[x] and @x < @p[x+1]
    @val[x]=1 if @x >= @p[x] and @x < @p[x+1]
    x += 1                                                             
    end

oh ... this is real nice

Just had a quick peek ... real nice how you have it to setup number of choices ... AND, having vert/horiz versions.

Very useful ... toolbox material.

Thanks Billv !

Great job, man. Radio buttons always find their way to my stuff. Thanks a lot.

i really like the concept of this selectors, thanks for sharing billv, but it could be done much easier and more lightweight,
i kept the concept and all features and cleaned up the properties so that everything can be set there, you also can set horizontal or vertical now in the properties, so its both in one

[billv]

Awesome nubeat7... ..a guru version. Everyone should be happier with it...
Lots of stuff i learn from this....Cheers.
Properties panel is great, but I'm always frustrated that i can't see results in
real time while "tweaking" parameters in properties panel...
So I added a preview of the "view" of the selector to the properties panel.
