Gwen/gameCanvas Tutorial?

[gooby]

Looking for a tutorial on how to use Gwen/Canvas to edit the interfaces like the CharacterWindow.

Is there a way to visualize and edit them like regular forms?

After you define them their properties are loaded from Client/Resources/Gui/Layouts/Game/Characterwindow.json

 

You will find your new controls there. Copy the settings to those controls from the existing ones.

Visual editors only exist for Windows Forms which the editor uses... rendered ui element in game must be defined and designed in code. Pretty much you can pick any element that already exists and find it in code to see how it is defined.

 

The same properties that exist in the json files are the ones you can use in code.

could you point me to where exactly the rendered UI is coded?

adding new stats or commenting existing ones resets them to the top left corner of the window, not sure where thats dictated

This particular window is defined in Intersect.Client.Interface.Character.CharacterWindow
