I've now added two more features to property browser handling:
(A) a Nasal function: gui.property_browser(path);
This opens a property browser for the given property path.
More than one call is possible, but note that all browsers
will be drawn centered on the screen, so one will be drawn
over the other. Example:
settimer(func {
gui.property_browser("/position");
gui.property_browser("/orientation");
}, 0);
(B) a function that opens one browser per /browser[] property.
These properties are removed from the property tree after opening,
so as not to clutter the property root. Example:
$ fgfs --prop:browser=position --prop:browser[1]=orientation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Old features that some may have forgotten:
(C) the dialog doesn't only contain a "close" button on the top right,
but also a "clone" button on the top left. This make a duplicate
of the dialog in which it was pressed. It can be used multiple
times.
(D) Control-click on a "." entry toggles verbose/developer mode,
in which for each property all set flags are shown:
r ... read protected
w ... write protected
R ... trace read ops \ in --log-level=info create log line
W ... trace write ops / with TRACE prefix on write/read operation;
set with <foo trace-write="y">...
A ... archive bit set (makes writeProperties() also save this
property in restricted mode ("save flight"),
while all others are only saved in full mode)
U ... user archive bit set (saved into ~/.fgfs/autosave.xml,
and restored next time)
T ... tied property (C/C++ code my write directly to the value
memory, in which case listeners aren't triggered)
(E) Control-click on a ".." entry goes immediately to the property
root.
(F) Control-click on a (bool) entry toggles this entry. No need to
enter 1 or 0.
Note that if you are using the dark GUI style and the property browser
is drawn with a black (and thus hard to read) font: this is a plib bug
that will be fixed in the next release (if one will ever happen;
The pathetic plib maintenance couldn't even manage to migrate to SVN
during the last few *months*. No development was possible in that
time.) A patch for the black font is available. It makes it white.
