Code a customdatatype for this I'd say. Check the SDK examples.

Oh, if you only want to load a bitmap, you could use a bitmapbutton if I remember the class name correctly.

Simply

GROUP BLABLA {  
  CUSTOMDATATYPE MYCUSTOMDATATYPE { }  
}

?

No, I want a UserArea with which one can interact.
Thank you,
Niklas

No, check the SDK examples for Customdatatype.

Hi Niklas,

mal auf deutsch. Du sollst dir mal die Beispiele in der SDK anschauen, nicht in der Dokumentation. Die Codebeispiele. Dort findest du ein Customdatatype beispiel.
Damit kannst du eine UserArea einbinden und als eigenes Element in deine Resourcedateien verwenden. Ein Customgui könnte auch reichen, je nachdem was die UserArea für einen Wert letzlich zurückgeben soll. Hier im Forum gibt es auch einige Beispiele für Customguis und Customdatatypes. Das sollte dir helfen.

Hi Katachi,

Wie gesagt, ich konnte nirgends etwas zu GeUserAreas in der SDK finden. Damit habe ich die Examples mit eingeschlossen.

Ich will einfach nur eine GeUserArea im Attribute Manager anzeigen, anstatt in einem Dialog.

Danke,
Niklas

Und wie gesagt, das geht halt nur wenn du es selber in einem Customdatatype oder Customgui einprogrammierst. Es gibt kein Resourcenelement dass das macht (bis auf den Bitmapbutton, aber der hat keine Interaktion). Da kommst du nicht drumrum.

Sieht aus als wäre das nicht möglich in Python.
Schade ! Aber danke
Habe nicht verstanden dass du das bereits gesagt hattest.

Wow, that is some old thread, awakening from the dark side.
And nope, you still need your own customgui.

Hi Eclectrik,

Originally posted by xxxxxxxx

Is it possible to use GeUserArea similar to the above ( ie clickable bitmaps ) but in the ObjectManager properties for a Plugin?

Not from Python, unfortunately. That would require implementing a CustomGui plugin.

Best,

Does it mean I need to write a seperat CustomGuiPlugin? Have never heard about such type of Plugin, but is it comparable with https://github.com/nr-plugins/example-tristate-gui/blob/master/src/TriStateGui.cpp? And if, is it possible to do with Python or do I have to use C++?

What I want is to draw a table of strings and floats into the attributes of an ObjectData.

Im a bit confused... sorry for that.

The link to my plugin you linked on GitHub is a CustomGuiPlugin. And you have to do it from C++
