Auto UI Environment section

Hello everyone,

I’m trying to build a user interface automatically by overriding the AddAutoParameters method in the CRhRdkEnvironment class. The Marmalade sample has helped me a lot.
Everything is OK. I have a couple of questions though.

  1. How can I add a combo box?
  2. When I add a texture control (RDK_TEXTURING), how can I get the filename of the texture?

Thank you very much.

Cheers,
Dimitris

  1. At the moment there’s no way to add a combo box using the automatic UI.
  2. If you add RDK_TEXTURING, you will end up with a child texture attached to your material. You can query this for the filename or use SimulateTexture on it to get at the bitmap.

Thank you very much Andy.

eventually, I changed my mind and I used static dialogs. It approved to be faster and easier. But the auto UI seems to have potential. very nice.

Cheers.
