Popobject class missing

Is there a significant reason the core MUI Popobject class isn't implemented in MUIRoyale?

Well, most attributes of that class cannot really be easily represented in XML or script. That's why MUI Royale supports only the higher level pop classes. What do you want to do with Popobject?

Need to convert my program written in AmigaE: http://aminet.net/package/util/wb/Hexaco_1.1
There is, so called, popup list that contains html named colours.
And here is the part of E code, I need to convert:

Code: Select all

	Child, pop_lv:=PopobjectObject,
		MUIA_CycleChain, 1,
		MUIA_Popstring_String, str_htmlname:=StringObject,
								MUIA_Frame, MUIV_Frame_String,
								MUIA_String_MaxLen, 26,
								MUIA_String_Accept,'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWYZ',
								MUIA_String_Contents, 'black',
								MUIA_CycleChain, 1,
							   End,
		MUIA_Popstring_Button, pop_bt:=PopButton(MUII_PopUp),
		MUIA_Popobject_StrObjHook, open_popuplistHook,
		MUIA_Popobject_ObjStrHook, close_popuplistHook,
		MUIA_Popobject_Object, lv_htmlnames:=ListviewObject,
									MUIA_Listview_List, ListObject,
															InputListFrame,
															MUIA_List_SourceArray, lst_names,
														End,
							   End,
	End,
Eventually I can stay at simple MUI listview.

Okay, never mind :oops: I can see Popstring object in MUIRoyale guide. Dump my previous post.

Edit:
I meant Poplist.
A brand new question was just born. As Poplist creates a String gadget by itself, then how to pass typical String attributes (accept, maxlen, etc.) to it?

Currently not possible but could be added easily if you need them.

@ airsoftsoftwair
Yes, please :) I think others may be interested in it as well, because String gadget created by Poplist is almost out of control as for now.

Yes, you're right. This should've been available from the very start. I'll add it.

Hope the new 2019 year will bring us the missing Popobject class.
