Graphics / Re: Draw "not standard" char

« on: June 13, 2013, 10:56:00 pm »

hi,

Thanks for the fast answer.
However, std::wstring can't work for me because I'm using method needing 'std::string' argument.
I wanted to try with \u, it works, but I get the same character : instead of Ω , i get a '?' char

string resistorUnit = "M";
        resistorUnit.append("\u03A9");
        //mResistor->drawIn(window,font,"MO",COLOR_RESISTOR);
        mResistor->drawIn(window,font,resistorUnit,COLOR_RESISTOR);

Graphics / [SOLVED] Draw "not standard" char

« on: June 13, 2013, 10:13:52 pm »

Hello,

I want to draw some unusual characters like Ω. I know it is possible because when I do like this :

text.setString(L"Ω");

It works.
however, I want to do something much more like this :

string newText="blablaΩΩΩ";
text.setString(newText);

( Sorry for not putting the 'code part' not in between good tag but you can see just above that I had some issues displaying Ω in [ code ] tag. )
This displays '?' instead of 'Ω' . Is that possible to cast a string as a "L string" ? If so, how shall I do this ?

Thanks,

Gabriel

Window / [SOLVED] Put Window in foreground

« on: June 12, 2013, 05:19:29 pm »

Hello,

I was wondering if there was a way to put a window on the foreground.
To be precise, let's imagine you have 2 different windows, window1 and window2. Both are visible and displayed. When you are on window1, I would like to set window2 on the foreground when i click on a button from window1 without having to re-create window2 (it works to recreate window2, but I don't want to have to re-load all elements from window2 which are already displayed), I just want to make window2 go on foreground.

If this is possible, please tell me how.

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel

General / Get the key pressed on keyboard

« on: June 05, 2013, 05:45:10 pm »

Hello,

After reading the tutorial on event/keyboard, I was wondering if we had to make all tests like that :

Code: [Select]

if (sf::Keyboard::isKeyPressed(sf::Keyboard::Left)) {}
Or if it was possible to get the char/stream entered on the keyboard, thus doing the test much more like that :

Code: [Select]

if (event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed)  // in the "while (window.pollEvent(event))" loop
{
  // getKeyPressed
  // use the input on keyboard
}
Is this possible ? and if so, how can we catch this (into a sf::Text) as an example ?
If this is not possible, can I get help on how to do it manually ?

Thanks !

General / SFML in a Qt Window using Visual Studio

« on: June 04, 2013, 10:47:13 pm »

Hey,

I am trying to integrate SFML 2.0 in a QT larger Window, and I'm using Visual Studio 2010.
Any one got an idea on how to link these elements ? (SFML works well on Visual Studio, but I have no idea how to add Qt to it).

Thanks a lot,

Gabriel.

Window / [SOLVED] Remove Resize Function

« on: June 04, 2013, 05:08:19 pm »

Hello,

I am confused about how to do this : I just want the user not to be able to re-size the window. Is this possible ?
Also, is this normal that the scale of the objects in the scene doesn't move while we change the window size ?

Thanks by advance!

EDIT : sorry, I don't know how the search function works. However, I've just seen that there was a post answering the question.

Window / Re: MouseClic / MousePressed

« on: May 31, 2013, 11:19:33 pm »

Hello and thanks.. Just, if I understood well,
do you mean i have to do it this way :

Code: [Select]

sf::Event event;
 while (window.pollEvent(event))
 {
     if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
         window.close();
     // else if -> event on mouse
 }

Window / [SOLVED] MouseClic / MousePressed

« on: May 31, 2013, 09:02:40 pm »

Hello guys !
I have a little question about mouse event : I do not want to be in the polling loop (that's cool because actually, the mouse can be handled separatly). However, when I clic on the window, the meter counting the number of clics don't increase by 1 but increase depending on how long I let the mouse button pressed.
Question : is it possible to get only once in the loop ( thus triggering the event on the clic and not on the pressed action ) ?
Here is the code :

if (sf::Mouse::isButtonPressed(sf::Mouse::Left))
{
        sf::Vector2i localPosition = sf::Mouse::getPosition(window);
        if ((myElectrode->getShape()).isPositionInside((sf::Vector2f) localPosition)) // the function always return true at the moment
        {
                count++;
                string windowTitle = to_string((long double) count);
                window.setTitle(windowTitle);
        }
}
 

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel.

Graphics / event on a clic on a Shape

« on: May 31, 2013, 03:03:30 pm »

Hello guys !

I am new to SFML ( how come I didn't know about it before ), and looking at the documentation + some topics on the forum, I didn't find function that permits to get an event if the user clicks on a ConvexShape.
If you have any idea/solution, I would like to have advices.
( I've seen the function getGlobalBounds, But I'd rather have the shape itself and not a rectangle containing the shape ).

Thanks in advance,

Gabriel.
