imrad-0.9

Changes

UI Improvements

• Reworked Property grid

  • Properties are better structured into Appearance/Behavior/Bindings/Common/Layout categories

  • Less distractive because of automatic hiding of buttons

  • Visualization of modified properties

  • Aditional edit options such as multiline text button

• New events can be quickly generated with double click. Default event name is suggested.

• Widget drag & drop. Allows to quickly reorder child widgets which was previously possible only with clipboard operations

• Alt+arrows move widget around in the hieararchy. This is a requested wxFormBuilder feature

• KeypadDecimal always inputs '.'. This means binding expressions with decimal numbers typed on the keypad will be correct under any OS keyboard settings

• Added context menu to File Tabs, make them reorderable

• Widget insertion became more accurate & flexible

• Visualization of format string arguments

• File Explorer added

• Table Columns dialog reworked. Columns can now specify flags and visibility

• Label-like properties allow multi-line edit through a dialog

• Error dialog shows loading/saving errors in a structured way. Message Boxes now come with an icon.

• Added Edit style button in the toolbar

• System monitor scaling is now used to scale fonts automatically

• Added version check (requires openssl on ubuntu)

• Add New File dialog

New Code features

• DockSpace, DockNode widgets added

• DragSource/Target events added

• ImRad::Format delegates to std::format when available

• Widget shortcuts now support RouteGlobal, Repeat flags

• Many two way binding properties now allow to bind into arrays (std::vector/array/span) and specify binding expression using the Binding dialog

• Bindings into array elements can now use $item and $index expressions so the array and index variable names don't need to be used directly

• Certain bindings now support both l-values and r-values and the appropriate code will be generated (such as for Selectable, RadioButton which come in two overloads)

• Android template implements haptic feedback for long press events

• overlayPos mode is now explicit and adds anchoring to horizontal/vertical center

• New fields can set member visibility - interface / implementation

• BREAKING: Support of ImGui dynamic fonts - font size is now specified separately. Zoom feature fixed. Generated code requires ImGui 1.92 and up.

• initialFocus / forceFocus moved into Common section so it's available to all widgets

• BREAKING: ImRad::IOUserData was moved inside ImRad::GetUserData() so it's no longer required to instantiate it and pass it to ImGui::IO::UserData. Use ImRad::GetUserData() directly.

• Added multiSelection support for Table, Child, Selectable

• Added experimental support for loading assets from zip files. Activate it by defining IMRAD_WITH_MINIZIP which requires
  the zlib library to be found. After that LoadTextureFromFile and font loading code in LoadStyle will accept file names with zip: scheme.

• Added DragDropSourceLongPressed event

• BREAKING: imrad.h was refactored into interface and implementation parts. By default only the interface part is included so
  imgui_internal.h and some other headers used only for the implementation are not leaked and generated code possibly compiles faster. In one of the cpp files #define IMRAD_H_IMPLEMENTATION before including imrad.h as the last include to create implementation.

• BREAKING: IMRAD_WITH_GLFW and IMRAD_WITH_STB are no longer used. Use IMRAD_WITH_LOAD_TEXTURE to implemented LoadTextureFromFile function which is needed for the Image widget. It will require to include stb_image.h and GL/ES headers.

• BREAKING: On android the required extern function GetAssetData was changed into GetAndroidAsset with more convenient signature.

Widget Improvements

• Child

  • new flags like ResizeX, ResizeY, NoNavFocus

  • multi-selection support added

• CustomWidget

  • label added

• DockSpace/Node

  • newly added widgets (requires imgui/docking branch)

• Image

  • Allows to specify image resource inside a zip file

• Input

  • allows to set member function callback like character filter, auto completion etc.

  • new flags such as ElideLeft, DisplayEmptyRefVal, AllowTabInput, WordWrap added

• Selectable

  • ModalResult now allows to end a modal popup with a result code like Button does

  • LongPressed event added

  • BREAKING: by default ImRad::Selectable will only use as much space as needed for its label. This fixes issues when Selectables are placed inside box sizers. User can still request expansion by typying -1 directly

  • multi-selection support added
