I'm using Bloodshed Dev-C++ for C++ using A7 engine (version 7.06.1). Showing panels itself is no problem, but I don't know how to implement buttons into them. When I try to implement button into my panel, both bmap and button give me an error that they are undeclared. I tried all variations of buttons and different ways of putting them: button_toggle(_VAR(0), _VAR(0), resume0_bmp, resume0_bmp, resume1_bmp, resume1_bmp, NULL, NULL, NULL); and button_toggle = _VAR(0), _VAR(0), resume0_bmp, resume0_bmp, resume1_bmp, resume1_bmp, NULL, NULL, NULL; This is part of my codes (there are no functions inside my button, it is still in testing phase): BMAP* resume0_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOut.bmp");
BMAP* resume1_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOver.bmp");
PANEL* pause_pan;
void loadHUD()
{
pause_pan = pan_create("bmap = screen_pause.tga;", _VAR(2));
pause_pan->pos_x = _VAR(373);
pause_pan->pos_y = _VAR(197);
pause_pan->flags |= OVERLAY | TRANSLUCENT;
button_toggle(_VAR(0), _VAR(0), resume0_bmp, resume0_bmp, resume1_bmp, resume1_bmp, NULL, NULL, NULL);
}
void engine_init()
{
ev = engine_open(NULL);
SETV(video_mode, 8);
SETV(max_particles, 20000);
SETV(max_entities, 2000);
SETV(fps_max, 60);
SETV(ph_fps_max_lock, 60);
SETV(shadow_stencil, ON);
...
loadHUD();
...
}Creating it using this method doesn't give any error on compiling but crash while running. PANEL* pause_pan = pan_create("bmap = screen_pause.tga; pos_x = _VAR(373); pos_y = _VAR(197); button_toggle(_VAR(0), _VAR(0), resume0_bmp, resume0_bmp, resume1_bmp, resume1_bmp, NULL, NULL, NULL); flags |= OVERLAY | TRANSLUCENT | INVISIBLE;", _VAR(3));Anyone know what is my problem? How can I solve it? EDIT: typo

Your BMAPs are declared incorrectly for globals.
You would use this syntax if you were declaring LOCAL bmaps (INSIDE a function),
BMAP* resume0_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOut.bmp");
BMAP* resume1_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOver.bmp");
But you are defining GLOBAL bmaps (OUTSIDE a function), so you need to use
BMAP* resume0_bmp = "button_resumeOut.bmp";
BMAP* resume1_bmp = "button_resumeOver.bmp";
Its weird I know, but thats how it goes....
[EDIT] Sorry, just remembered you are using C++, not lite-c.

This is largely educated guessing but try this. WARNING - requires 7.71
BMAP *resume0_bmp, *resume1_bmp;
PANEL *pause_pan;
void loadHUD()
{
resume0_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOut.bmp");
resume1_bmp = bmap_create("button_resumeOver.bmp");
pause_pan = pan_create("bmap = screen_pause.tga;", _VAR(2));
pause_pan->pos_x = _VAR(373);
pause_pan->pos_y = _VAR(197);
pause_pan->flags |= OVERLAY | TRANSLUCENT;
pan_setbutton(pause_pan, _VAR(0), _VAR(2), _VAR(0), _VAR(0), resume0_bmp, resume0_bmp, resume1_bmp, resume1_bmp, NULL, NULL, NULL);
}

I didn't try upgrading my version because my friend managed to make it work, anyway, I can make the button show, but it is not responding to any of the mouse over/click...
PANEL* panel2 = pan_create("button_toggle(0, 0, red.bmp, green.bmp, blue.bmp, white.bmp, clickMe, leaveMe, overMe);", _VAR(999));
And the image of the button is always in green.bmp, which is the off state. The clickMe, leaveMe, overMe are just simple functions to do a cout message.
Do you see any mistake in that line?

Hi. I had same problem. Try this code:
char *sStart_pan; // this is a pointer to char array with code of panel
ev = engine_open(NULL);
if (!ev) return 1; // acknex.dll not found
//folder with button images
add_folder("%EXE_DIR%\\DATA\\Btn\\");
...
//Allocation of memory
sStart_pan = new char[strlen("bmap = Start_pan.jpg;\
button (381, 229, btnStart_d.jpg, btnStart_u.jpg, btnStart_u.jpg, meth1, NULL, NULL);\
flags = OVERLAY;")];
//copy code of panel to char array
strcpy(sStart_pan,"bmap = Start_pan.jpg;\
button (381, 229, btnStart_d.jpg, btnStart_u.jpg, btnStart_u.jpg, meth1, NULL, NULL);\
flags = OVERLAY;");
//create a new panel
Start_pan = pan_create(sStart_pan,1);
// make it visible
Start_pan->flags|=VISIBLE;
// wait some frame for visualisation of panel
for (int i=0; i<3; i++) engine_frame();
It's working on my computer.
The buttons is shown and method "meth1" is working.
I'm using MS Visual Studio 2005 and A7 engine (version 7.06.1)
With best regards.
