I tried to make changes based on your information but unfortunately it didn't work.
I took a look at your code, the menu works fine but in my test it shows "behind" the usual UI of Attract Mode (the plain list with the snap background). I don't know why it happens, probably because your layout doesn't have any element besides that layout surface.
By the way if you change your case like this, adding just that single line:Code: [Select]case Transition.ShowOverlay:
overlaySurface.visible = true;
if (var == Overlay.Favourite) overlayMenuTitle.msg = "CUSTOM MESSAGE"
if ( ttime < 255 )
{
overlaySurface.alpha = ttime;
return true;
}
else
{
overlaySurface.alpha = 255;
}
break;
you can have the custom message when add favourite is shown
This is the portion of transition callback you have to use in the LayoutCode: [Select]fe.add_transition_callback( this, "on_transition" )
function on_transition( ttype, var0, ttime ) {
if (ttype == Transition.ShowOverlay) {
if (var0 == Overlay.Favourite) overlay_label.msg ="Your Message Here"
}
}
and overlay_label, overlay_listbox is a text object and a listbox object defined as custom control using:Code: [Select]fe.overlay.set_custom_controls( overlay_label, overlay_listbox )
// Overall Surface
local overlaySurface = fe.add_surface(1920,1080);
overlaySurface.visible = false;
// create extra surface for the menu
local overlayMenuSur = overlaySurface.add_surface(661,581);
overlayMenuSur.set_pos(284,160);
overlayMenuSur.add_image("images/screen.png", 0, 40, 660, 541);
local overlay_lb = overlayMenuSur.add_listbox(1,150,661,380);
overlay_lb.rows = 9;
overlay_lb.charsize = 40;
overlay_lb.set_rgb( 128, 128, 128 );
overlay_lb.font="Ledsitex St";
overlay_lb.set_sel_rgb( 255, 255, 255 );
overlay_lb.set_selbg_rgb( 0, 0, 0 );
overlay_lb.selbg_alpha = 0;
local overlayMenuTitle = overlayMenuSur.add_text("",0,80,660,35);
overlayMenuTitle.charsize=50;
overlayMenuTitle.font="Ledsitex St";
overlayMenuTitle.set_rgb(255,165,0);
fe.add_transition_callback( "orbit_transition" );
function orbit_transition( ttype, var, ttime )
{
switch ( ttype )
{
case Transition.ShowOverlay:
overlaySurface.visible = true;
if ( ttime < 255 )
{
overlaySurface.alpha = ttime;
return true;
}
else
{
overlaySurface.alpha = 255;
}
break;
case Transition.HideOverlay:
if ( ttime < 255 )
{
overlaySurface.alpha = 255 - ttime;
return true;
}
else
{
local old_alpha;
old_alpha = overlaySurface.alpha;
overlaySurface.alpha = 0;
if ( old_alpha != 0 )
return true;
}
overlaySurface.visible = false;
break;
}
return false;
}
// tell Attractmode we are using a custom overlay menu
fe.overlay.set_custom_controls( overlayMenuTitle, overlay_lb );
Edit /attract/language/en.msg and add this on line #5Code: [Select]Add '$1' to Favourites?;Add to Favourites?
FYI - This is the file for English. If you're using a different language modify it's corresponding file.
In your transition callback function check if Transition.ShowOvwrlay is triggered and if type is Overlay.Favourites you can change the text.msg field of your custom overlay controls. Of course this works if you are using custom overlay controls
A layout could be coded to overcome this, saving the current filter in the non volatile memory and recalling it when changing display. It would make a lot of sense when you have displays drawing from the same romlist (as in the Naomi example)
