Overview

This library is a built-from-scratch reproduction of VBA's MsgBox function, which is used for displaying messages/prompts to users in Microsoft Office. (See an overview of the VBA version here.)

MSGBOX lets you quickly and easily display a windowed message and 1 to 3 buttons for soliciting a user response to the message. The function returns an enumerated value that lets you determine what button was pressed. You can also choose to display an icon or image to display in the box, and you can customize pretty much anything about the message box's appearance to fit your program's style. Check out the demo script included with the code for lots of examples.

Here is a simple example prompting the user to decide if they want to save before quitting:

Code: Select all

{{/lib/interface/msgbox}}

SET TOOLBAR OFF
GRAPHICS CLEAR
GRAPHICS

text$ = "You have unsaved changes. Would you like to save before quitting?"
response = MSGBOX(text$, MSGBOX.YesNo, MSGBOX.Exclamation)

IF response = MSGBOX.Yes THEN
  ' code to save
END IF

Functions provided:

MSGBOX (text$, type, icon)
MSGBOX_RESTORE_PARAM_DEFAULTS ()

Inputs and Customization

Required inputs:

text$ — This is a string of the message you want to be displayed in the message box. If can include linefeeds using CHR$(10) and can be any length. The text is put into a field, so it is automatically scrollable if the message is very long.
type — This is an enumerated value telling the library what type of message box you want (full list below). This determines what buttons are presented to the user for their response.
icon — This is an enumerated value telling the library what icon to display in the message box, if any (full list below).

Types:

MSGBOX.OkOnly = 0 . . . . . . . . . one button: "Ok"
MSGBOX.OkCancel = 1 . . . . . . . . two buttons: "Ok" and "Cancel"
MSGBOX.YesNo = 2 . . . . . . . . . . two buttons: "Yes" and "No"
MSGBOX.YesNoCancel = 3 . . . . . . three buttons: "Yes", "No", and "Cancel"
MSGBOX.RetryCancel = 4 . . . . . . two buttons: "Retry" and "Cancel"
MSGBOX.AbortRetryIgnore = 5 . . . three buttons: "Abort", "Retry", and "Ignore"
MSGBOX.CustomBttns1 = 6 . . . . . one button: uses parameter MSGBOX.bttn1$
MSGBOX.CustomBttns2 = 7 . . . . . two buttons: uses parameters MSGBOX.bttn1$ and .bttn2$
MSGBOX.CustomBttns3 = 8 . . . . . three buttons: uses parameters MSGBOX.bttn1$, .bttn2$, and .bttn3$

Icons:

MSGBOX.NoIcon = 0 . . . . . . . no icon (text fills the entire message box)
MSGBOX.Critical = 1 . . . . . . . red "X" in circle
MSGBOX.Exclamation = 2 . . . . yellow "!" in triangle
MSGBOX.Question = 3 . . . . . . blue "?" in circle
MSGBOX.Information = 4 . . . . blue "i" in circle
MSGBOX.CustomImage = 5 . . . uses parameter MSGBOX.iconImagePath$ (path of image file to use)
MSGBOX.CustomAscii = 6 . . . . uses parameter MSGBOX.iconAsciiNum (decimal value of unicode character to use)

Return values:

MSGBOX.Ok = 0
MSGBOX.Cancel = 1
MSGBOX.Yes = 2
MSGBOX.No = 3
MSGBOX.Abort = 4
MSGBOX.Retry = 5
MSGBOX.Ignore = 6
MSGBOX.Button1 = 7 (for custom MSGBOX types)
MSGBOX.Button2 = 8 (for custom MSGBOX types)
MSGBOX.Button3 = 9 (for custom MSGBOX types)

A quick note about the enumerated inputs (type and icon)... In your MSGBOX function call, you can use either the variable name (for readability) or the hardcoded value (for conciseness). For example:

Code: Select all

' This line of code:
response = MSGBOX("Test", MSGBOX.YesNo, MSGBOX.Question)

' is equivalent to this line of code:
response = MSGBOX("Test", 2, 3)

Other parameters:

In addition to the above inputs, there are many other parameters that can be set before calling the MSGBOX function that controls the appearance of the message box. You can change the color and alpha of anything, including the background behind the message box, and you can also control the duration of the fade-in animation. A list of parameters is given in the "msgbox" file (see the header info at the top of the file), and you can also find many examples in the demo script included with the code.

To give you an example, here are two clean, semi-transparent themes: one light and one dark:

Code

PLEASE READ THE BELOW INFO ON SETTING UP THE LIBRARY!
All code can be found here: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/udk7bhjic863 ... lq_ra?dl=0

IMPORTANT: The location of the msgbox_icons folder must be hardcoded. You must update the variable MSGBOX.dir$ at the top of the "msgbox" file with wherever the library is located. (If anyone knows of a better way to do this, please let me know!)

The MSGBOX library depends on a few other libraries I have written. Those libraries are:

graphics_modes — Functions for detecting, setting, saving, and restoring the current graphics mode. (Posted independently here.)
draw_fill_settings — Functions for detecting, setting, saving, and restoring the current draw and fill graphics settings. (Inspired by and an adaption of Joel's library)
option_sprite_pos — Function for detecting the current OPTION SPRITE POS setting.
roundrect — Functions for filling and drawing a rectangle with rounded corners.

For myself, I like keeping these libraries as separate files. I have included all the required files in the Dropbox link above. If you want to also keep all the libraries separate, then you will need to update the library include lines of code at the top of each file based on where you put each file in your folder structure. Or you can replicate how I have my library organized if you don't want to change anything:

/lib/
- graphics/
  - draw_fill_settings
  - graphics_modes
  - roundrect
- interface/
  - msgbox
  - msgbox_icons/
- sprites/
  - option_sprite_pos

If you would prefer to just have a single file with all of these libraries combined, then use the below code. (NOTE: You will still need to download the msgbox_icons folder from the Dropbox link above to use the premade icons Critical, Exclamation, Question, and Information.)

Code: Select all

MSGBOX.dir$ = "/lib/interface/"    ' needed for icons

'g'
/*
    MSGBOX (text$, type, icon)
    MSGBOX_RESTORE_PARAM_DEFAULTS ()


Function for displaying a windowed message and 1 to 3 buttons for soliciting a user response.

NOTE: You must update MSGBOX.dir$ above for icons to work.

    Uses: FILL_ROUNDRECT, DRAW_ROUNDRECT,
          SAVE_DRAW_AND_FILL, RESTORE_DRAW_AND_FILL,
          IS_OPTION_SPRITE_POS_CENTRAL

'==============================================================

MSGBOX displays a message, provides buttons for user response, and returns an enumerated value corresponding to the user's response. The required inputs include the text to be displayed, the message box type (which determines the buttons to display), and the icon to be displayed. There are also many parameters that can be set before calling the MSGBOX function for more advanced customization.

  Inputs
  ------

    text$    Text to display in the message box

     type    Message box type (enumerated)

               MSGBOX.OkOnly           = 0
               MSGBOX.OkCancel         = 1
               MSGBOX.YesNo            = 2
               MSGBOX.YesNoCancel      = 3
               MSGBOX.RetryCancel      = 4
               MSGBOX.AbortRetryIgnore = 5
               MSGBOX.CustomBttns1     = 6  (one button)
               MSGBOX.CustomBttns2     = 7  (two buttons)
               MSGBOX.CustomBttns3     = 8  (three buttons)

               For custom types, see the parameter info below

     icon    Icon to display next to the text (enumerated)

               MSGBOX.NoIcon      = 0
               MSGBOX.Critical    = 1
               MSGBOX.Exclamation = 2
               MSGBOX.Question    = 3
               MSGBOX.Information = 4
               MSGBOX.CustomImage = 5
               MSGBOX.CustomAscii = 6

               For custom icons, see the parameter info below

  Output
  ------

    MSGBOX returns an enumerated value corresponding to the button hit by the user. Therefore, the possible return values are dependent on the message box type:

      Responses for type MSGBOX.OkOnly:

        MSGBOX.Ok = 0

      Responses for type MSGBOX.OKCancel:

        MSGBOX.Ok     = 0
        MSGBOX.Cancel = 1

      Responses for type MSGBOX.YesNo:

        MSGBOX.Yes = 2
        MSGBOX.No  = 3

      Responses for type MSGBOX.YesNoCancel:

        MSGBOX.Yes    = 2
        MSGBOX.No     = 3
        MSGBOX.Cancel = 1

      Responses for type MSGBOX.RetryCancel:

        MSGBOX.Retry  = 5
        MSGBOX.Cancel = 1

      Responses for type MSGBOX.AbortRetryIgnore:

        MSGBOX.Abort  = 4
        MSGBOX.Retry  = 5
        MSGBOX.Ignore = 6

      Responses for type MSGBOX.Custom1:

        MSGBOX.Button1 = 7

      Responses for type MSGBOX.Custom2:

        MSGBOX.Button1 = 7
        MSGBOX.Button2 = 8

      Responses for type MSGBOX.Custom3:

        MSGBOX.Button1 = 7
        MSGBOX.Button2 = 8
        MSGBOX.Button3 = 9

  Parameters
  ----------

    NOTE: The option SET BUTTONS CUSTOM can be used in conjunction with FILL COLOR, FILL ALPHA, DRAW COLOR, and DRAW ALPHA for controlling the appearance of the buttons in the message box. This will not interfere with the below parameters that set color and alpha values for other elements of the message box. The options SET BUTTONS FONT NAME and SET BUTTONS FONT SIZE can also be used as they would normally.

    Fade-in animation:
    ------------------

    MSGBOX.fadeDuration sets the length of time in seconds of the message box's fade-in animation. Set to 0 to disable the fade-in animation.


    Message box background:
    -----------------------

    MSGBOX.bgR, .bgG, .bgB, and .bgA set the background color and alpha that appears behind the message box.


    Message box and text:
    ---------------------

    MSGBOX.boxFillR, .boxFillG, .boxFillB, and .boxFillA set the fill color and alpha of the message box.

    MSGBOX.boxOutlineR, .boxOutlineG, .boxOutlineB, and .boxOutlineA set the color and alpha of the message box's outline.

    MSGBOX.txtR, .txtG, .txtB, and .txtA set the color and alpha of the message box's text.

    MSGBOX.txtFont$ sets the font name to use for the message box's text. Set to "default" to use the default field font.

    MSGBOX.txtSize sets the font size to use for the message box's text. Set to -1 to use the default field font size.


    Message box icon and buttons:
    -----------------------------

    MSGBOX.iconImagePath$ specifies the image file to use as the message box's icon when the input "icon" is set to MSGBOX.CustomImage.

    MSGBOX.iconAsciiNum specifies the Unicode character to use as the message box's icon when the input "icon" is set to MSGBOX.CustomAscii.

    MSGBOX.iconR, .iconG, .iconB, and .iconA set the color of alpha of the message box's icon. The RGB values only apply to ASCII icons. The alpha value applies to all icons.

    MSGBOX.bttn1$, .bttn2$, and .bttn3$ set the text to use in the user response buttons when the input "type" is set to MSGBOX.CustomBttns1 (one button), MSGBOX.CustomBttns2 (two buttons), or MSGBOX.CustomBttns3 (three buttons).

    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL ()
    SET_DRAW (r, g, b, a)
    SET_FILL (r, g, b, a)


Functions for detecting and setting the current draw and fill settings.

Note: GET_DRAW_AND_FILL cannot be called while editing a sprite's graphics layer.

Inspired by and an adaption of Joel's library file for saving and restoring graphics parameters (https://kibernetik.pro/forum/viewtopic.php?f=70&t=1730#p10857)

    Uses: GET_GRAPHICS_MODE$, SET_GRAPHICS_MODE

'==============================================================

GET_DRAW_AND_FILL detects the following graphics settings:

    DRAW COLOR
    DRAW ALPHA

    FILL COLOR
    FILL ALPHA

    DRAW SIZE
    DRAW FONT SIZE
    OPTION TEXT POS

The values of the detected settings can be retrieved from these variables after calling the function:

    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.dr    Draw color (red)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.dg    Draw color (green)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.db    Draw color (blue)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.da    Draw alpha

    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.fr    Fill color (red)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.fg    Fill color (green)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.fb    Fill color (blue)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.fa    Fill alpha

    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.ds    Draw size
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.fs    Draw font size

    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.tpCentral    Text pos central (boolean)
    GET_DRAW_AND_FILL.tpNormal     Text pos normal (boolean)

NOTE: There is a bug that causes the DRAW LINECAP option (possible values "RECT" and "ROUND") to always be reset to RECT when a SPRITE BEGIN command is called. This means that the DRAW LINECAP option cannot be detected without making certain assumptions about graphics settings. The SPRITE BEGIN command is unavoidable: If draw settings are tested and detected inside a sprite graphics layer (the current method employed), then obviously a SPRITE BEGIN command is necessary. If draw settings are tested and detected inside the main graphics layer after a SPRITE SCAN command, the option is still reset during the call to GET_GRAPHICS_MODE$ since a SPRITE BEGIN command is necessary for detecting the graphics mode.

'==============================================================

SET_DRAW sets the draw RGBA settings based on the inputs.

  Inputs
  ------

    r    Draw color (red)
    g    Draw color (green)
    b    Draw color (blue)

Nice job! I have been looking for a better way than just popping up a field with some text.

For the Demo, a quit button would be appreciated. If there is a way to stop partway through, I couldn't find it. It is nice to come back to the demo for refreshers, but I don't always want to go through it all.

Everything works great.

Posted: **Sun Aug 26, 2018 5:14 pm**

I would like to see shared code in this section for custom interface objects. I have a few examples I will post in the next week for custom sliders, buttons, switches and fields.

You did a beautiful job on the switches and sliders in GraphicsEditor. I would really like to see the code posted in this section.

Posted: **Sun Aug 26, 2018 6:18 pm**

Thanks! Glad everything works well for you. I try and simulate iPad screen ratios on my iPhone during testing, but of course, that isn't the same as having an actual iPad to test on. You may find you want to tweak some of the default parameter values or even the hardcoded sizing values I have in the code. For example, anything that looks like scrW*X or scrH*Y, where X and Y are some hardcoded value between 0 and 1.

For the Demo, a quit button would be appreciated. If there is a way to stop partway through, I couldn't find it. It is nice to come back to the demo for refreshers, but I don't always want to go through it all.

Just updated the demo. It now gives the option to quit after going through an entire branch. (Whenever you are about to jump back to the front of the demo, it gives you the chance to quit.) Otherwise, if you want to quit in the middle of the demo just hit smart Basic's stop button. That's why the demo doesn't hide the toolbar.

You could create a separate exit button off in the corner, but it actually wouldn't work immediately. It could only be checked using BUTTON_PRESSED after the MSGBOX function has finished. This is one of the limitations of using this library: While the message box is visible, the only way for program execution to proceed is for the user to hit one of the buttons. Processing is completely suspended inside the library function while it waits for the user's response. (And yes, I did use SLOWDOWN in that loop.)

You did a beautiful job on the switches and sliders in GraphicsEditor. I would really like to see the code posted in this section.

Again, thank you for the high praise. At the moment, unfortunately, it would not be a trivial task to take those sliders and create a standalone library. Those sliders are deeply integrated with the rest of the code for the Gradient Editor, not to mention having to also do all the touch detection and processing (the MSGBOX function has the very simple task of just running through each button and checking if it has been pressed). The configuration, creation (drawing), touch interpretation, and processing all would need to be abstracted for the flexibility and simplicity you would want with a library function.

I like the idea though of getting some custom interface objects though!

Posted: **Mon Aug 27, 2018 2:35 am**

Thanks for the tips and the addition of a stop button.

I have posted a custom slider demo today, and I have a demo program almost ready for custom switches and buttons that I will post tomorrow. For the sliders I posted, you can use any two of your own images for the handle and track.

I have a fantastic program for image searching, that I find much more efficient than Google for finding what I need. It found free slider, button and switch images for me. It is called CLIPish Pro.

My sliders aren't as pretty as yours in GradientEditor, but it is nice to see a 3D shaded handle and track. Also the handle can be scaled to the screen size, something not possible with the handle on the default SB slider.

Let me know if you have any suggestions for compacting the slider code.
