Do you know of a table layout module for XNA?
I've just started doing some XNA stuff. In my screens (e.g. title screen and high score screen) I find myself more and more modifying rectangles, then drawing something, then modifying another rectangle, then drawing something... repeat multiple times.
What I'd like is a table. I'd like to specify: the amount of rows and columns, the spacing and padding, the size of the cells in pixels or percentages, and which cells are merged. e.g.
var t = new TableLayout(viewPortBounds);
t.Columns=3;
t.Rows=5;
t.Padding=5;
t.Spacing=25;
t.SetRowSize(0, new Percent( 5) );
t.SetRowSize(1, 100);
This'd create a 3x5 table with padding and spacing. I can the开发者_JAVA百科n get rectangles like:
Rectangle r = t.Cell(1,0)
drawText(@"the title", r);
drawText(@"something else", t.Cell(0,1) ) ;
etc.
I'd also like the ability to merge cell, e.g. given the first row above, I'd like to merge all the cells, then when I ask for cell(0,0), I'd get a rectangle of the full width of the table (minus the spacing).
Does such a thing exist?
Have you thought about using a GUI library like Neoforce?
I've since found a couple of alternatives that follow the WPF/Silverlight paradigm.
Red Badger's XPF and Valentin's XnamlComponent. Both look very good. Red Badger haven't yet finalised the license but assure us that it'll be free to use for non-commercial or open-source projects. Valentin doesn't yet mention licensing and is looking for testers.
