Settings Menu blank with LAF

[DanH]

@Lindon Ta, thought it was a newer issue than this and didn't dig deep enough!

many thanks

[Lindon]

@DanH yeah it was a long time ago for me -- but Dave had the probelm recently - look down the end of the thread - I tthink he comes to teh same conclusion as me....LAF= too janky to use right now...

After playing with it more I've decided to use it, it still feels janky but I'm adapting to its quirks.

Well this is not a „bug“ in the sense that the scripted LAF expects you to override all functions, but I think there should be a default in place for the things you don‘t override.

EDIT: I'm not crazy about the Change sample folder colour either

One way is from HI_LookAndFeels.h

[d.healey]

I think we should do away with the settings panel and have individual script functions for each of the options. Then we can customise it any way we like.

[DanH]

@d-healey Can we script a ui control for the zoom level now?

[d.healey]

@DanH Yeah, that was added a few days ago. I think the function is Engine.setZoomLevel();
