Title: Slider Menus
Post by: xorgroth on December 04, 2010, 03:26:30 AM

Not sure if this was brought up in the past or not or the degree of difficulty to implement. Was running ideas on a new skin and was thinking of sliding menus instead of just buttons or have a delay on them so it doesn't constantly pop up when you don't want it too. Thinking the benefits of smaller config files and screen space.

I think I need "slider menus" defined in a bit more detail.

Do you mean the menu pops up when the mouse pointer hovers over the button?

Yeah, pretty much. Wasn't a good screen shot of it either.  :o

It's a decent idea, rendered difficult by the fact that the engine doesn't expose mouseover events. The button highlights are a special case.

I would be nice to be able to trap mouseovers in the screen handlers though ...
