Deponia Based Sliding Interface	Definition	AFRLme

This script allows you to slide interfaces in - or out - from any direction, on hover or via the mouse wheel.

* this page is a work in progress *

Instructions

1. Add the main script to the Visionaire Studio Script Editor & set the script as a definition script.
2. Replace inventory with whatever name you gave your interface; names are case sensitive.

local getInterface = getObject("Interfaces[add interface name here]")

3a. Edit minOffset x & y values; these should reflect initial starting point of the interface.

local minOffset = {x = 0, y = 0}

3b. Edit maxOffset x & y values; these should reflect the destination position for the interface.

local maxOffset = {x = 0, y = 0}

3c. Edit mwOffset value; this should reflect the overlap amount of the interface from screen edge - to hide interface on mouse wheel mode; set 0 to keep overlap.

local mwOffset = 0

4a. Edit inSpeed value; this controls the amount of pixels[squares] the interface should move by on close.

local inSpeed = 1

4b. Edit outSpeed value; this controls the amount of pixels[squares] the interface should move by on open.

local outSpeed = 2

5. Edit slideDirection value; this determines which direction the interface should slide from.

local slideDirection = 1 -- from left
local slideDirection = 2 -- from top
local slideDirection = 3 -- from right
local slideDirection = 4 -- from bottom

6. Create a new definition script & add the event script to it; see registerEventHandler() for more information, in regards to event handlers & listeners.

Event Script

-- * this is the mainLoop event function (all loop events & functions for looping should be added or linked here) * --
function onMainLoop()

end

  if eventType == eEvtMouseWheelUp then mwUp = 1 end
  if eventType == eEvtMouseWheelDown then mwUp = 2 end
 else -- inverse mouse wheel
  if eventType == eEvtMouseWheelUp then mwUp = 2 end
  if eventType == eEvtMouseWheelDown then mwUp = 1 end
 end
end

-- * let's create the mouse event listener! * --
registerEventHandler("mouseEvent", "onMouseEvent", {eEvtMouseWheelUp, eEvtMouseWheelDown})
-- * let's create the loop event handler! * --
registerEventHandler("mainLoop", "onMainLoop")
