Local LAF Alert windows

[Lindon]

@d-healey I tried that here:

const var dialogLAF = Engine.createGlobalScriptLookAndFeel();
dialogLAF.registerFunction("drawAlertWindow", function(g, obj)
{
    g.fillAll(0xFF333333);
    
    var a = [0, 0, obj.area[2], 30];
    g.setColour(0x44000000);
    g.fillRect(a);
    g.setColour(Colours.white);
    g.drawRect(obj.area, 0.3);
    g.setFont(skin.stdFont, 18);
    g.drawAlignedText(obj.title, a, "centred");
});

Still nothing...

@Lindon This is what I see with your example (I don't have your font of course)

This is the standard one

@d-healey yeah very odd, working here now too, thanks..... ignore me everyone back on their heads...

[Lindon]

@Lindon nope dont ignore me.....its broken somehow, it wont accept what Im entering:, here it is now:

const var laf = Engine.createGlobalScriptLookAndFeel();
laf.registerFunction("drawAlertWindow", function(g, obj)
{
    g.fillAll(0xFF000000);
    
    var a = [0, 0, obj.area[2], 30];
    g.setColour(0x44000000);
    g.fillRect(a);
    g.setColour(Colours.white);
    g.drawRect(obj.area, 0.3);
    g.setFont(skin.stdFont, 18);
    g.drawAlignedText(obj.title, a, "centred");
});

so the background should be black, and this is what I now get:

@Lindonaaaaand now its working again...mystified.......

[Lindon]

@Lindon ....aaand now its failing again, its very broken I think.

@Lindon Odd, It seems to be random

[d.healey]

It's working here in isolation, could it be some other part of your project that is interfering with it?

Try resetting the global look and feel (View -> Reset custom look and feel) before compiling.

But yeah, the global LAF is glitchy inside HISE - it's global and will be applied to all components and you might end up with some left over LAF from an older compilation.

@Christoph-Hart thanks I will try this...
