Hi,
so I made the PluginsTutorial and it works just fine.
But now I want to create a dynamic thumbnailpanel (those of you, who know kaleidescape - that's the direction I'm heading for).
Since I need full control of the thumbs' properties (including position, order, etc.) I guess I cannot use MPs thumbnailpanel/facadeview.
I had moderate success using the GUIImage function, but this only works if there is a
code in the corresponding XML file - that means a control for every single thumb in the XML-code.
That's not a feasable option and it is not very flexible either.
So here are a few questions:
- can there be instances of one GUIImage, so that I would only need one Image-control (sort of as a reference, where size etc. are stored)?
- how can I create AND display a GUIImage without having an according control in the XML-file?
I tried
But to no avail. I don't get error messages, but the image simply will not be displayed.
Those are probably quite basic questions, but as a beginner, I need some place to start ;-)
Thank you for your help
André
