Unigine.UserInterface Class
The class is used to work with widgets that are created by loading a UI file.
Usage Examples#
The examples below show:
- Loading a UserInterface from the *.ui file and accessing the widgets it stores.
- Adding callbacks to these widgets.
- Managing the UserInterface lifetime.
Managing Lifetime by the World#
The UserInterface is created on loading the world. When you reload or exit the world, or close the Engine window, the UserInterface is deleted.
WidgetLifetimeWorld.cs
Source code (C#)
void on_group_remove()
{
Log.Message("world group removed\n");
}
private void Init()
{
// world user interface
UserInterface ui = new UserInterface(Gui.GetCurrent(), "user_interface.ui");
ui.Lifetime = Widget.LIFETIME.WORLD;
WidgetGroupBox main_group = (WidgetGroupBox)ui.GetWidget(ui.FindWidget("main_group"));
main_group.Text = "World User Interface";
main_group.EventRemove.Connect(on_group_remove);
WindowManager.MainWindow.AddChild(main_group, Gui.ALIGN_EXPAND);
}Managing Lifetime by the Window#
The UserInterface is created in a separate window. When you close the window, the UserInterface is deleted as its lifetime is managed by this window. The console shows whether the window and UserInterface are deleted or not, whether the remove event is fired, and the message from the remove event handler (if it is).
After closing, the window can be re-created by pressing T.
WidgetLifetimeWorld.cs
Source code (C#)
public EngineWindowViewport window;
public UserInterface ui;
public WidgetGroupBox main_group;
bool group_remove_handler = false;
void on_window_group_remove()
{

group_remove_handler = true;
}
public void on_window_button_click()
{
Log.Message("window button click\n");
}
public void on_window_button_remove()
{
Log.Message("window button removed\n");
button_remove_handler = true;
}
public void on_window_hbox_remove()
{
Log.Message("window hbox hierarchy removed\n");
hbox_remove_handler = true;
}
public void create_window()
{
button_remove_handler = false;
hbox_remove_handler = false;
window = new EngineWindowViewport("Test", 512, 256, (int)EngineWindow.FLAGS.SHOWN);
// single window widget
button = new WidgetButton("WINDOW_BUTTON");
button.Lifetime = Widget.LIFETIME.WINDOW;
button.EventClicked.Connect(on_window_button_click);
button.EventRemove.Connect(on_window_button_remove);
window.AddChild(button);
// window hierarchy
hbox = new WidgetHBox();
hbox.Lifetime = Widget.LIFETIME.WINDOW;

hbox.BackgroundColor = vec4.WHITE;

WidgetGroupBox group = new WidgetGroupBox();
group.Background = 1;
group.Text = "Window Hierarchy";
hbox.AddChild(group);
group.AddChild(new WidgetLabel("hierarchy_window_label_0"));
group.AddChild(new WidgetLabel("hierarchy_window_label_1"));
// window user interface
ui = new UserInterface(window.Gui, "user_interface.ui");
ui.Lifetime = Widget.LIFETIME.WINDOW;
main_group = (WidgetGroupBox)ui.GetWidget(ui.FindWidget("main_group"));
main_group.Text = "Window User Interface";
main_group.EventRemove.Connect(on_window_group_remove);
window.AddChild(main_group, Gui.ALIGN_EXPAND);
}
private void Init()
{
create_window();
}
private void Update()
{
if (Input.IsKeyDown(Input.KEY.T) && window.IsDeleted)
create_window();
Log.Message("window deleted: {0}, button deleted: {1}, hbox deleted: {2}, button remove handler: {3}, hbox remove handler: {4}\n",
window.IsDeleted, button.IsDeleted, hbox.IsDeleted, button_remove_handler, hbox_remove_handler);
Log.Message("window deleted: {0}, group deleted: {1}, ui deleted: {2}, group remove handler {3}\n",
window.IsDeleted, main_group.IsDeleted, ui.IsDeleted, group_remove_handler);
}
}
void on_window_group_remove()
{
Log.Message("window group removed\n");
group_remove_handler = true;
}
public void create_window()
{
window = new EngineWindowViewport("Test", 512, 256, (int)EngineWindow.FLAGS.SHOWN);
// window user interface
ui = new UserInterface(window.Gui, "user_interface.ui");
ui.Lifetime = Widget.LIFETIME.WINDOW;
main_group = (WidgetGroupBox)ui.GetWidget(ui.FindWidget("main_group"));
main_group.Text = "Window User Interface";
main_group.EventRemove.Connect(on_window_group_remove);
window.AddChild(main_group, Gui.ALIGN_EXPAND);
}
private void Init()
{
create_window();
}
private void Update()
{
if (Input.IsKeyDown(Input.KEY.T) && window.IsDeleted)
create_window();
Log.Message("window deleted: {0}, group deleted: {1}, ui deleted: {2}, group remove handler {3}\n",
window.IsDeleted, main_group.IsDeleted, ui.IsDeleted, group_remove_handler);
}Managing Lifetime by the Engine#
The lifetime of the UserInterface is managed by the Engine, so it is deleted on Engine shutdown. A Gui instance is set manually via the setGui() method.
The console shows whether the window and UserInterface are deleted or not, whether the remove event is fired, and the message from the remove event handler (if it is). After closing, the window can be re-created by pressing T.
