I would subscribe the label to a 'status' message bus. Then
create your own button subclass which listens to mouseover events
and sends messages to the 'status' bus.
I used this aproach for an error popup:
/* ************************************************************************
#asset(qx/icon/Tango/32/status/dialog-error.png)
#asset(qx/icon/Oxygen/32/status/dialog-error.png)
#asset(qx/icon/Tango/16/actions/dialog-ok.png)
#asset(qx/icon/Oxygen/16/actions/dialog-ok.png)
************************************************************************
*/
qx.Class.define("demo.Error",
{
extend : qx.ui.window.Window,
construct: function(){
this.base(arguments);
// the blocker* properties should cause
// the rest of the browsserwindow to grey
// out while the error is displayed.
// it does not work at the moment (2008-10-14)
// though
this.set({
modal: true,
showMinimize: false,
showMaximize: false,
resizable: false,
contentPadding: 20,
blockerColor: '#888888',
blockerOpacity: 0.5
});
this.setLayout(new qx.ui.layout.VBox(10));
var error = new qx.ui.basic.Atom(null,
"icon/32/status/dialog-error.png");
error.setRich(true);
error.setGap(10);
this.add(error);
var box = new qx.ui.container.Composite;
box.setLayout(new qx.ui.layout.HBox(5, "right"));
this.add(box);
var btn = new qx.ui.form.Button("OK", "icon/16/actions/dialog-ok.png");
var that = this;
btn.addListener("execute", function(e) {
that.close();
});
box.add(btn);
qx.event.message.Bus.subscribe('error', function(m){
var data = m.getData();
that.setCaption(data[0]);
error.setLabel(data[1]);
that.center();
that.open();
});
}
});
In the Application.js I do:
var error_win = new demo.Error();
and then whenever there is a error condition in the rest of the code, it
does:
qx.event.message.Bus.dispatch('error', [
that.tr("Error"),
that.tr("You made a BAD BAD mistake.")
]);
cheers
