 Togglebutton with SVG images |
|
Here is an example of a togglebutton using 2 SVG images. Each image
corresponds to different data ---> a list widget is filled with data
One button is used and the label text changes.
The two svg images are renamed to make programming the togglebutton
easier
| Code: |
cp /tmp/SVG_Description.svg /tmp/true.svg
cp /tmp/SVG_Cities.svg /tmp/false.svg
|
...since true and false is the variables output.
There is a third svg image created in /tmp/ ---> SVG_Function.svg
This is for a simple button that is hidden when the script is first launched,
then it becomes the 'Function' button.
Note that | Code: | | <action>clear:LIST</action> |
is needed to stop the list from
growing.
| Code: |
#!/bin/bash
# make two svg images - labeled Cities and Description
for LABEL in 1 2 3 ;do
[ $LABEL -eq 1 ] && TEXT="Cities List"
[ $LABEL -eq 2 ] && TEXT="Description"
[ $LABEL -eq 3 ] && TEXT="Function"
X1=$(echo "$TEXT"|wc -c) # number of letters
W=$((${X1}*6*95/31))
DISPLACE=$(($W/7))
echo '<svg version="1.1">
<rect
style="fill:white;fill-opacity:.7;stroke-width:2;stroke:black;stroke-opacity:1;"
width='\"$W\"' height="36" rx="10" ry="10" x="1" y="1"/>
<text style="font-family:DejaVu;font-size:24;fill-opacity:1"
x='\"$DISPLACE\"' y="26" >
'$TEXT'
</text>
</svg>
'>/tmp/SVG_$TEXT.svg
done

Re: Togglebutton with SVG images |

I am thinking about
| Code: | | for LABEL in $(gettext 'Cities') $(gettext('Description') $(gettext 'Function');do |
now 
that is really useful.
Thank you don570

I decided to rewrite the script -----> one line wasn't needed
so I commented it out
| Code: | | #ln -sf /tmp/SVG_Description.svg /tmp/togglebutton.svg |
and I realised that a small change would allow white space in the
button labels
| Code: |
for LABEL in 1 2 3 ;do
[ $LABEL -eq 1 ] && TEXT="Cities List"
[ $LABEL -eq 2 ] && TEXT="Description"
[ $LABEL -eq 3 ] && TEXT="Function"
|
The three SVG images are generated in /tmp
| Code: | | '>/tmp/SVG_$TEXT.svg |
The revised script is available in the first post.
_______________________________
Note to L18L : Apparently whitespace in the variable LABEL isn't
important when looping?? You have more experience in gettext than me.
| Code: | | for LABEL in $(gettext 'Cities') $(gettext('Description') $(gettext 'Function');do |

should work also for whitespaced items.

changed "Städteliste" to "Liste der Städte" to have some whitespace. It worked using "$(gettext '... ... ...')"
Hope to see your fr_CA localization soon.

I finished the gettext version of script. I made it as general as possible
so that it can be converted to other uses.

On the subject of white space....
Put some files with white space in your home folder
and run this script. The double quotes protect the white space.
Apparently it only goes around the loop once.
Afterwards remove the double quotes and try again. It will loop but it will not
show the filenames with white space properly.
| Code: |
#!/bin/sh
for file in "$(ls)";do
echo "file = $file"
done |

I've made a practical script for unit conversion.
It modifies the above script...
You can test it here....

Sorry for reviving a year old thread, but can you have a toggle button refreshing itself? ie
if true, toggle-button-label 1 toggle-button-icon 1, action a, b, c
if false, toggle-button-label 2, toggle-button-icon 2 action d, e, f
where label text and icons are to the standard gtk (open, ok etc) but custom.
Can the <label> and maybe <input file icon=""> definition to be state sensitive?
Thanks
BTW nice gtkdialog tutorial but couldn't find anything on togglebuttons in it.

That is the functionality I want on the button itself, but using the togglebutton widget rather than overlaying two buttons and play with their visibility.

The key to solve this is to use a svg icon containing both the label and the icon.
Note that it's only the <input> tag that can be refreshed for any widget. Before Thunor opened support of togglebuttons, we use the widget <checkbox draw_indicator="false"> which also shows a normal button on/off. But, as the <input> tag for a <checkbox> refreshes the value of its state (true/false), you can not refresh the label/icon. For <togglebutton> the <input> tag refreshes the icon, so the label will be static - else we include this into the icon.
and, yes. The togglebutton can refresh itself.

So basically you need custom icons to toggle the buttons? 
Forget it.

There are lots of examples of 'refreshing' by Thunor.
Available HERE
Some can be difficult to understand because he uses complex functions.

That was very helpful and i can actually do the icon toggle 
However I'm trying to work around Zigbert's code that is using the xpl_button_icon script to insert the icon in the button. so I added in the dialog script:
| Code: | OPEN_ICON="`/usr/lib/gtkdialog/xml_button-icon package_remove`"
CLOSE_ICON="`/usr/lib/gtkdialog/xml_button-icon close`"
export OPEN_ICON CLOSE_ICON
ICON="$OPEN_ICON"
change_icon () {
[ "$ICON" = "$OPEN_ICON" ] && ICON="$CLOSE_ICON" || ICON="$OPEN_ICON"
export ICON
}
export -f change_icon
# and change the button code to
<togglebutton tooltip-text="'$(gettext 'Open/Close the Uninstall packages window')'" space-expand="false" space-fill="false">
<label>" '$(gettext 'Uninstall')' "</label>
'${ICON}'
<variable>BUTTON_UNINSTALL</variable>
<action>change_icon</action>
<action>refresh:BUTTON_UNINSTALL</action>
<action>if true show:VBOX_REMOVE</action>
<action>if false hide:VBOX_REMOVE</action>
</togglebutton>
|
But it fails.
Basically I have no way to export the current ${ICON} from the dialog (action "export" is not recognized) and if I export it from the function as it is written now, does not appear to be taken by the dialog.
(unless the refresh action does not work with the xml_button-icon  )
Any hints on that?
Thanks

You can not refresh the gtkdialog-code itself - this is already executed by gtkdialog. The way to do it is to
- define input: <input file>/tmp/button-icon.svg</input>
- if true: cp /usr/share/pixmaps/puppy/close.svg /tmp/button-icon.svg
- refresh button
Another solution is to hide/show 2 (toggle)buttons with different icons (and labels)
