Hello,

I'm trying to do a pan_create like so:

pan_create("bmap = slot_bg.pcx; event = slot_on_click_handler;",3);

Although the bmap seems to be getting set OK, the event does not seem to be triggering when I click on the panel. Any ideas?

My slot_on_click_handler function looks like:

function slot_on_click_handler(PANEL* panel)
{
diag("\n*** TEST! ***\n");
}

Thanks,
- Bret

Ah!

Nevermind. I figured it out. I was moving around a panel that tracked my mouse movement. When I clicked, the "floating" panel intercepted the click event.

I modified my code a bit too. Instead of trying to include the event in the pan_create options string, I set it after the panel was created like this:

panel_pointer->event = function_name;

Thanks,

hey im needing to know that too.. how to assign an event to a panel..

As clone45 said:
panel->event = function_name;

My question would be how to recognize different event_types on a plane (EVENT_CLICK, EVENT_TOUCH, EVENT_RIGHTCLICK,...)

i´m not surre if i understand you right
maybe that helps

PANEL test_pan =
{//...........................................
bmap = "slot_bg.pcx;";
pos_x = 0;
pos_y = 0;
button (130, 102, "p.bmp", "p.bmp", "p.bmp", function_onclick, NULL, NULL);
//tje button pos must be into the panel or i dosnt´t works
flags = VISIBLE;
}

You can do it like this:

Code:

---

  
PANEL* Test_pan;

Test_pan = pan_create("button (0,0,Level_element_9.tga,Level_element_9.tga,Level_element_9.tga,SETZEN_ELEMENT,NULL,NULL);",10);
set(Test_pan,VISIBLE);
 

---

or like this:

Code:

---

 
PANEL* Your_pan; 
PANEL* My_create(char* content, var layer, var Pos_x, var Pos_y ,char* bitmap, long flags)
{	
        PANEL* Temp_pan = pan_create(content, layer);
        if (bitmap != 0)	
        {		
                 Temp_pan.bmap = bmap_create(bitmap);
                 Temp_pan.size_x = bmap_width(Temp_pan.bmap);
                 Temp_pan.size_y = bmap_height(Temp_pan.bmap);	
        }        
        Temp_pan.pos_x = Pos_x;        
        Temp_pan.pos_y = Pos_y;	
        set(Temp_pan,flags);	
        return (Temp_pan);
 }
Your_pan = My_create("button(0,0,Your_bmp.tga,Your_bmp.tga,Your_bmp_ok.tga,NULL,NULL,your_func);",5,x,y,NULL,TRANSLUCENT);
