switched drivers no success - standard linux drivers even made it worse

installed several windows/desktop environments

got it working under

- Cinnamon - but only in software mode
- Gnome flashback Metacity
- Gnome flashback Compiz

Are there any other Linux users that can confirm that behaviour - still not sure if it is the desktopn environment or the gfx drivers.

Regards

Hi Egon,

used the time to check out the robombs source for building an ingame menu/gui.
The movement of the blit textures with mouse mapper is pretty forward and already working for me.

However I was especially interested in the text editing/ text input. If I click the TextField the cursor image appears,
but I am unable to edit the text. It seems I do not receive any key events...

For that I have checked (also I was interested in the input/edit performance) the robombs game itself.
I am running ubuntu 15.10 gnome shell / oracle 8 jdk

Fullscreen is not working properly on gnome shell - which I meanwhile found out is a bug of the gnome shell.
(The window is somehow shifted on the screen).
Then I switched to Unity , where full screen is working correctly.

But in both cases the keyboard input did not work. I was unable to add or edit text in any way - eg Player Name field.

Just to be sure , I started windows , and there everything is working properly - including the text input/edit.

enclosed shell start stuff

I ll check out gfx drivers as well as alternative desktop managers.

Thanks for any help on that.

Thanks Egon - makes sense anyway - however just was wondering because the engine already provides so many useful helper classes (including MouseMapper, etc)... thought maybe I missed something.

So with an eye on productivity, it probably makes sense using and customizing the existing awt components?

I will check out the source samples now.

So far thanks for you help!

 

Hello there,

I am trying to work on a simple gui with buttons (for that I use blit).
I am working with AWTRenderer.

My question:
How can I attach/add a mouse listener to the image(s) of the blit texture(s) ?

Thanks in advance for any help on that issue.

Regards
