Gump Studio 1.8 Released!

[Bradley]

You can download version 1.8 from www.gumpstudio.com. This version includes a new RunUO export plugin written by Roadmaster.

Enjoy! Hopefully 1.9 won't take 3 more years. Thanks go out to everyone who enjoys using Gump Studio.

Here are the changes from 1.7.

1/15/08 - version 1.8
- Resize handles are now properly aligned.
- Fixed exception caused when multiple of the same type of elements are selected that have different hues where there is no active element.
- Compiled under the .NET 2.0 Framework.
- Snap To Grid plugin drawing code has been optimized.
- Added the ability to manually set the client data file path.
- Support for ML artwork.
- Added acceleration for nudging elements with the arrow key, the longer you hold the arrow the faster the element will slide.
- Sliding an element using arrows no longer creates an undo point for every step moved, the undo point is now created on the release of the arrow key.
- Elements should now be serializing and deserializing properly (no more properties reverting back to default on loading).
- Some missing properties have been added to elements.
- Cropped labels are now supported (set Cropped=True on a a label, and edit its size). It is still up to script export plugins to actually render them though.
- Scrollbar on art browser is now properly alligned.
- The selection box for selected but not active elements has had a color change to be more visible.
- The Active Element can now be deselected by ctrl-clicking it, jsut like other Selected but not Active elements.
- The main form now remembers its size between runs.
- The bug with Groups within Groups drawing at the wrong position has been fixed. Feel free to nest groups to whatever depth you want now.
- The Large Text Property Editor now allows New Lines with just the enter key, instead of ctrl-enter.
- Image / Repeating Elements no longer default to ImageID 0 when created... someone decided to put a big-ass picture there so I picked a better starting ID.

Roadmaster asked me to post this changelog for the updated RunUO exporter plugin.

bug# 1: RadioButtons showing as Checkboxes. this was caused by checkboxes actually
being placed instead of RadioButtons. Fixed 01-12-08 -roadmaster

bug# 2: The RadioButton was missing its "Checked" bool property argument, but since
checkboxes were being placed it was only noticed that the "AddCheck" should
have been "AddRadio". Fixed 01-12-08 -roadmaster

bug# 3: The "AddItem" code was incorrectly displayed as "AddImage", minor oversight.
Fixed 01-12-08 -roadmaster

Enhancement# 1: Added overload for AddTextEntry to allow for the "int size" argument.
Enhancement# 2: Added code to overload the Gump Constructor to allow for a Mobile
argument being passed in. The Gump will work for either way now
you can call it with a Mobile argument or without a Mobile argument.
Enhancement# 3: Added OnResponse Method with switch(statment).
Enhancement# 4: Added some default code for use with AddTextEntry ie...
[TextRelay entry = info.GetTextEntry(0)]. Whatever value you
assign in the ID Property inside GumpStudio will be automatically
set up in your script. You just have to tell it what you want to
do with the string.
Enhancement# 5: Added overload for AddItem, now allows for the "Item.Hue" argument.
Enhancement# 6: Added overload for AddImage, now allows for the "Image.Hue" argument.

Change# 1: changing Button case style enums to give you a choice which you want to use
case (int)Buttons.Whatever: style or case 1: style. A case number will
automatically be generated anytime you have a Reply Button.

there may be other things I have done but forgot to write down.

ToDo::

1. Pull code from the button code property and place it in the case for that button.
2. Provide default code to work with the Checkboxes.
3. Provide default code to work with the radio buttons.

and whatever else I can come up with.

[roadmaster]

After reading your post I remembered I never set up the Exporter for the cropped labels. Ill move that up on my ToDo:: list.

[Bradley]

The download link should be working now.

Newb Question Alert!

Gump = Program that tells an item how to be that item? So when I lay down a spawn generator and open the properties window that window is a gump. Is that right?

So I would use this to build a custom thingy for the shard? Will this help me to set up a NPC Quest?

Gump is short of "Graphical User Menu Program". It's the way UO displays windows and menus with buttons. The "windows" that pops up when you do many things in UO are called gumps. The contains buttons, places to enter text, images, html text, and many other controls. Gump Studio allows you to visually lay out these pieces and, with teh help of a plugin, generate the script needed to display the Gump to a UO client on an Emulator.

[TheRockstar2253]

Sounds Great! I Use Gump Studio for all my Gump Needs! Thank you for Updating .

[Daanonkerr]

I will start to play with this over the weekend. Thanks for the updated program.

[roadmaster]

Just so everyone knows Im still working on the exporter, so hopefully sometime within the next week I'll have an update for it.

[Fire-Dragon-DoL]

A suggestion: can you put a new properties for each "item" (i mean for label,image,tile...etc) called "comment"?It will be useful when we are going to create dynamic gumps (which changes based on some other values) and we don't remember how that "item" will be dinamically changed

In our export programs we can also use it to add at the end of the line something like

//My comment

Thanks !

Are you refering to being able to export your comments something like this:
this is a full script, scroll down to the checkboxes and radio buttons for the comments.

the above is a script which was exported using a current (unreleased)version of the exporter. I made no modifications to it, this is how it came out. This is a Enum Style version.

are the comments // before the checkbox and radio Add lines and at the end of the checkbox and radio Add lines kinda what you were thinking of?

** Edit **

after moving the switches case loop into the Generate button and adding Console.Writeline statements, it looks like this:

well minus the indentation/formatting glitch

also attached is a screenshot of the gump in GS before exporting.

Yes however i'm a sphere scripter...i can modify the sphere exporter, however i need a "gump studio property for each item called "comment" as in your example..

I'll add this to the list. You can expect it in the next version.

thanks a lot...

i normally do gumps by testing them...it tooks whole day to do "simple gumps" (well scripted, however) but with a bad graphic...and i'm bored to see bad graphic in uo...it can be done better

Now i'm happy to do new graphic to my gumps

Hi there.

Just noticed that the Import feature doesn't seem to recognise AddImageTiled or AddAlphaRegion.

[Fire-Dragon-DoL]

Feature-not necessary-request:

If possible, a way to export "an image" of what are we watching inside the black part of the gump editor (where we placed images)...would be better then doing screen shot each time, however it's really not necessary

Greetings,

I have a suggestion/feature request. I would like to use Gump Studio to replace InsideUO, when I am looking for art work for scripts and stuff.

So, in the Static Art Browser, could you add both the HEX and ID number to that screen when scrolling through it.

yeah gump studio it's less laggous than inside uo...dunno why, probably better cache usage...

Sweet!, time for me to actually play with gumps now lol,
It was on my Learn to do it list hehe

Thanks

if you open up your gump .cs script does it show multiple entries for those? ie...

AddAlphaRegion(48, 54, 137, 71);AddAlphaRegion(48, 54, 137, 71);

or does it show a single entry?

AddAlphaRegion(48, 54, 137, 71);

I decided to write a new GumpImporter from scratch with Bradley's help, its in the Beta stages but i would like to release it so I can get some bug reports back on it. I can only debug it so much before i seem to start going over things i already looked at. So please by all means put it through some torture testing and let my know of any bugs or suggestions to make it work better.

At the moment I can't re-release my Exporter just yet, although its coming soon.

*Edit*
This Importer is for RunUo Gump Scripts only.
