KF2-BoxPainterLib

2D box drawing library.
Ported from YetAnotherScoreboard and published under LGPLv3 due to licensing issues with some closed source mods.

Add to your project

⚠️ If your code uses the GPL or LGPL you can choose any of the methods below. But if you're using a different license and don't want to change it to the (L)GPL, then you should use methods 1 or 2, and don't make changes to the BoxPainterLib code.

Here are the ways:

1. As git submodule

Open git-bash and go to your project: cd <your_project_path>
Add submodule: git submodule add https://github.com/GenZmeY/KF2-BoxPainterLib BoxPainterLib

updating library:
Get updates: pushd BoxPainterLib && git pull && popd
Commit the changes: git add BoxPainterLib && git commit -m 'update box painter lib'

2. As standalone sources

Create a BoxPainterLib folder and put this repo there.

3. As part of your sources (only for GPL and LGPL projects)

Include the BoxPainterLib code in your project wherever you want and however you like, make (or not) any changes

Using

1. Create BoxPainter object: BoxPainter = new class'BoxPainterLib.BoxPainter';
2. Initialize the canvas: BoxPainter.Canvas = <REPLACE_THIS_WITH_YOUR_CANVAS_OBJECT>;
3. BoxPainter is ready! Use functions DrawBox(...) and DrawShapedBox(...) to draw cool interface boxes.

Available Functions

DrawShapedBox(float X, float Y, float W, float H, float Edge, byte TopLeftShape, byte TopRightShape, byte BottomLeftShape, byte BottomRightShape)
Draws a box using the shape code for each corner:

• ECS_Corner
• ECS_BeveledCorner
• ECS_VerticalCorner
• ECS_HorisontalCorner

DrawBox(float X, float Y, float Width, float Height, float Edge, optional byte Shape = 0)
Draws a box using the shape code:

Build

If you are using KF2-BuildTools open builder.cfg and add BoxPainterLib first in PackageBuildOrder and PackageUpload parameters
If you are building manually add line ModPackages=BoxPainterLib to your KFEditor.ini before all other ModPackages
Now build the mod. BoxPainterLib.u library will be next to your *.u files
