Expand size of text

Expand width/height of text when expandTextWidth/expandTextHeight is true

To resize text object, text object should have resize method. For example

class MyText extends Phaser.GameObjects.Text {
    constructor(scene, x, y, text, style) {
        super(scene, x, y, text, style);
        scene.add.existing(this);
    }
    resize(width, height) {
        this.setFixedSize(width, height);
        return this;
    }
}

Or uses bbcode text object, tag text object, canvasInput object.

Custom class

  • Define class
    class MyLabel extends RexPlugins.UI.ImageInputLabel {
        constructor(scene, config) {
            super(scene, config);
            // ...
            scene.add.existing(this);
        }
        // ...
    }
    
  • Create instance
    var imageInputLabel = new MyLabel(scene, config);
    

Layout children

Arrange position of all elements.

imageInputLabel.layout();

Open file chooser dialog

Failure

This method can't run at ios.

Note

Open a file chooser dialog under any touch event. i.e. User can't open file chooser dialog directly.

imageInputLabel.openPromise()
    .then(function(file){
    })
imageInputLabel.open()

Enable clicking-open

  • Enable
    imageInputLabel.setClickOpenEnable();
    // imageInputLabel.setClickOpenEnable(true);
    
  • Disable
    imageInputLabel.setClickOpenEnable(false)
    

Save texture

Save image on canvas into texture manager.

imageInputLabel.saveTexture(key);

Events

  • Select file
    imageInputLabel.on('select', function(file, imageInputLabel) {
    
    })
    

Get element

  • Get element
    • Background game object
      var background = imageInputLabel.getElement('background');
      
    • Canvas game object (a canvas game object created internally)
      var canvas = imageInputLabel.getElement('canvas');
      
    • Icon background game object
      var iconBackground = imageInputLabel.getElement('iconBackground');
      
    • Icon game object (an imageBox game object created internally)
      var imageBox = imageInputLabel.getElement('icon');
      
    • Text game object
      var textObject = imageInputLabel.getElement('text');
      
    • Action icon game object
      var action = imageInputLabel.getElement('action');
      
    • File chooser game object, if domButton is set to true
      var fileChooser = imageInputLabel.getElement('fileChooser');
      
  • Get by name
    var gameObject = imageInputLabel.getElement('#' + name);
    // var gameObject = imageInputLabel.getElement('#' + name, recursive);
    
    or
    var gameObject = imageInputLabel.getByName(name);
    // var gameObject = imageInputLabel.getByName(name, recursive);
    
    • recursive : Set true to search all children recursively.
