control p5 - changing mouseover-color, font size, font..

in Contributed Library Questions • 3 years ago

I haven't found a main control p5- thread, so I write it here..

the title says almost everything.. can i change mouseover-color, font size, the font of a button with control p5? and how can I change it for all the buttons, how just for one?

hi, the following snippet uses a custom function to build a button with custom mouseover-background, font, etc. hope this gives you a direction to what you are looking for. best, andreas

Copy code

import controlP5.*;
ControlP5 controlP5;
void setup() {
size(640,480);
smooth();
frameRate(30);
controlP5 = new ControlP5(this);
ControlFont cf1 = new ControlFont(createFont("Arial",20));
ControlFont cf2 = new ControlFont(createFont("Times",12));
createButton("hello",10,200,100,color(255,0,0),cf1);
createButton("world",10,200,140,color(255,128,0),cf2);
}
Button createButton(String theName, int theValue, int theX, int theY, color theColor, ControlFont theFont) {
Button b = controlP5.addButton(theName,theValue,theX,theY,120,39);
b.setColorActive(theColor); // color for mouse-over
b.setColorBackground(color(90)); // default color
b.captionLabel().setControlFont(theFont);
return b;
}
void draw() {
background(0);
}

thanks. that helped a lot.. really..

but what about changing the font color?

and changing the capital letters?

is this possible or do I have to take something else..?

and what about "deleting" buttons or setting buttons invisible?

thanks..
