Customizing combo boxes - how?

[tomekslesicki]

@Christoph-Hart ?

It would also be amazing to be able to specify the height of the menu items to customize the vertical spacing between items! Or is it possible already?

Hey @Christoph-Hart, I noticed you added the fix to the font problem in the latest version, thank you!

In case anyone else was wondering about the height of the right-click popups and menu items, look at line 242 in HI_LookAndFeels.h file. You can change the height multiplier there.

The last question is - how to center the text box of the alert window if there's no icon? I guess it should be doable in one of the .cpp files but I'd really appreciate some direction as to where to look for it :-)

[Christoph Hart]

I've changed it so that if you want to not use any icon at all, just set the obj.type property to -1 in the script lookandfeel createIcon() method

[tomekslesicki]

Ok, I'm a little lost. Should I call it in the script editor or modify some file?

@tomekslesicki Some examples are in the link posted. Have you checked those out yet?

Yeah, I tried:

laf.registerFunction("drawAlertWindowIcon", function(g, obj)
{
    obj.type = -1;
});

But it doesn't work unfortunately.

[Christoph Hart]

Have you pulled the latest version? I‘ve added this just now.

[tomekslesicki]

Yeah, my bad, didn't download both updated files... Sorry for that. It's kind of close now, but not there yet, I think?

I'd like the margins on both sides (left & right) to be the same. With the icon previously it was offset to the right. Now it's to the left.

[tomekslesicki]

I can experiment with this myself, just tell me where to look for it in the source files.

[Christoph Hart]

Search for MessageWithIcon ;)

If anybody would like to change that, too, please, look at line 2904 in PresetHandler.cpp file:

b.removeFromLeft(img.getWidth() - X);

The X bit should be a number, it offsets the text to the right by the amount of pixels you specify.
