Félicitations! It's really good! Suddenly the forum looks a bit old in comparison (with the old logo) but that's a small thing compared to the excellent work you've done!

My opinion:

The off/on button was good. The power button reminder me of multimedia equipment, and that is somewhat related to the multimedia aspect of SFML.

The arrow only means speed and violence/hunting/war. The link with SFML is really small. And it's not as good looking really.

I followed the tutorial here http://www.mjbshaw.com/2013/02/building-sfml-2-with-c11-on-os-x.html and it almost worked, except when I launch the Xcode Template "SFML App" I have a build error saying:

ditto: can't get real path for source
couldn't copy /Library/Frameworks/freetype.framework to /Users/vanpet/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/engine-aflrprlylygpwtcgjaleylrwvizo/Build/Products/Debug/engine.app/Contents/Frameworks/freetype.framework
Command /bin/sh failed with exit code 2

Any idea what is happening?

Graphics / Drawing a std::vector<sf::Vector2f> like a VertexArray

« on: October 30, 2012, 07:24:32 pm »

I'm new to graphic programming in general, so my questions may seem stupid, please excuse me, but I swear I'm doing my best to read and understand most of the documentation (-> not easy for me)!

Until now, I've played with VertexArray to draw complex polygons, and it was fine. But now, I need to edit these shapes (for example, the user must be able to add a point between to other points), and I don't think I can use VertexArray to insert a point in the middle because it has only push_back method at the end of the array.

So, now I made my own class Polygon and I store the points in a vector<sf::Vector2f>

In my class Polygon, I inherited Drawable, and I want to make a virtual draw function to handle the drawing of my Polygon...

virtual void draw(sf::RenderTarget& target, sf::RenderStates states) const;

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to implement this function. I don't know how to go from my vector to a drawable object like a vertexArray.

Foolishly, I tried to use low level OpenGL instructions, but it was a big mess and I guess I feel more confortable staying in the SFML world for the moment.

Can someone please push me in the right direction? I suppose the answer is easy for you!

Thanks in advance!
