<pre>Automation 4 Configuration Dialog interface
This file describes the functions and data structures used for the
Configuration Dialog functionality in Automation 4.
---
Dialog Control table format
A Dialog Control table describes a single control in a configuration dialog,
which can display information to the user and allow them to change it.
There are a number of different classes of controls, and the keys a Dialog
Control table must contain depends on the control class.
Common keys for all control classes:
class (string)
Defines which class this control has. Must be one of:
"label",
"edit", "intedit", "floatedit", "textbox",
"dropdown",
"checkbox",
"color", "coloralpha", "alpha"
x (number)
y (number)
width (number)
height (number)
Determines the position and size of the control in the dialog. These values
are used to create a grid containing the controls. They should all be
integer. The top left corner is x,y=0,0.
If any of width and height are set to zero or less, it will be set to one
instead.
Keys defined for all classes except "label":
hint (string)
A string displayed to the user as tooltip, when hovering over the control.
name (string)
A name that uniquely identifies the control. This is recommended to be a
string easily used as an identifier in Lua, since it will be used to access
the value input into the control.
Keys defined only for "label" and "checkbox" classes:
label (string)
The text displayed to the user on the control.
Key defined only for the "edit" and "textbox" classes:
text (string)
The contents of the control when the dialog is first displayed.
This can contain newlines if the control is of the "textbox" class.
Keys defined only for the "intedit" and "floatedit" classes:
value (number)
The value in the control when the dialog is first displayed. For the
"intedit" class, if this is a non-integer number it will be truncated.
min (number or nil)
max (number or nil)
If one of these are nil, the other must also be nil. (Ie. undefined.)
If both are present, the control gets a spin button, the user can click to
update the value of the control. The user won't be able to close the
dialog if the value is outside the range between "min" and "max".
Key defined only for the "floatedit" class:
step (number or nil)
If nil/undefined, the value 1 (one) is used instead.
Specifies the size of change when the spin buttons are clicked.
Keys defined only for the "dropdown" class:
items (table)
This is an Array Table containing only strings. They are used for the
options displayed to the user in the dropdown box.
All strings in the array table should be unique. (There is not way to
distinguish non-unique strings from each other.)
value (string)
Determines which item is selected when the dialog id first displayed. If
this is not one of the items specified, no item is selected. This is case-
sensitive.
Key defined only for the "checkbox" class:
value (boolean)
Determines whether the checkbox is checked or not when the dialog is first
displayed.
Keys defined only for the "color", "coloralpha" and "alpha" classes:
value (string)
A color value in VB or HTML hexadecimal format.
For the "color" class, this should be a 3 byte value, ie. "#RRGGBB".
For the "coloralpha" class, this should be a 4 byte value, ie. "#RRGGBBAA".
For the "alpha" class, this should be a one-byte value, ie. "#AA".
---
Dialog Definition table format
The Dialog Definition table is simply an Array Table of Dialog Control tables.
Note, however, that while the visual ordering of the controls are decided
entirely by the "x", "y", "width" and "height" of the controls, the
"tab order" of the controls is decided by their ordering in the Dialog
Definition table.
---
Dialog Result table format
A Dialog Result table contains the user input from a configuration dialog.
The control "name" properties are used as keys in this table.
The type of the value for each entry in the table depends on the class of the
control. The control classes map to types in the following manner:
"label"
None. Since the user cannot change a label, they do not produce any value.
"edit", "textbox"
String. The text input in the box. This can contain newlines in the case of
a "textbox" class control.
"intedit", "floatedit"
Number. The number input into the control, guaranteed to be within the
constraints set by the class (integer or float) and the min/max properties.
"dropdown"
String. The case-exact text of the selected item.
"checkbox",
Boolean. The checked-state of the checkbox.
"color", "coloralpha", "alpha"
String. A VB colorstring following the same scheme as for setting the
"value" property.
---
Display Configuration Dialog function
This function displays a configuration dialog to the user and waits for it to
close. It then returns whether the user accepted or cancelled the dialog, and
what values were input.
function aegisub.dialog.display(dialog, buttons)
@dialog (table)
A Dialog Definition table containing the controls to be in the dialog.
@buttons (table)
Optional. This is an Array Table of strings defining the buttons that appear
in the dialog. If this is left out, empty or is otherwise not a table, the
standard Ok and Cancel buttons appear.
The strings in this Array Table are used as labels on the buttons, and for
identifying them in the return values of the function.
Returns: Two values.
1. Boolean or string.
If no custom buttons were specified, this is a boolean telling whether Ok
(true) or Cancel (false) were clicked in the dialog.
If custom buttons were specified, this is the text on the button clicked
by the user.
Even if custom buttons were specified, this can still be boolean false if
the user closes the dialog without pressing any button.
2. Table.
The Dialog Result table corresponding to the values the user input in the
dialog.</pre>
