From Multi Theft Auto: Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This function is for creating a DGS menu.

DGS menu is invisible by default. To show menu, use dgsMenuShow.

Syntax

element dgsCreateMenu( float x, float y, float width, float height, bool relative [, element parent = nil ] )
Example DGS Menu.

Required Arguments

  • x: A float of the 2D x position of the DGS menu on a player's screen. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • y: A float of the 2D y position of the DGS menu on a player's screen. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • width: A float of the width of the DGS menu. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • height: A float of the height of the DGS menu. This is affected by the relative argument.
  • relative: This is whether sizes and positioning are relative. If this is true, then all x,y,width,height floats must be between 0 and 1, representing measures relative to the parent.

Optional Arguments

NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.

  • parent: This is the parent that the DGS menu is attached to. If the relative argument is true, sizes and positioning will be made relative to this parent. If the relative argument is false, positioning will be the number of offset pixels from the parent's origin. If no parent is passed, the parent will become the screen - causing positioning and sizing according to screen positioning.

Returns

Returns a dgs-dxmenu element of the created menu if it was successfully created, false otherwise.

Example

DGS = exports.dgs

local menu = DGS:dgsCreateMenu(200,200,200,600,false)
local timeItem = DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Time","time")
	DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Day","t.Day",timeItem)
	DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Night","t.Night",timeItem)
DGS:dgsMenuAddSeparator(menu)
local weatherItem = DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Weather","weather")
	DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Clear Day","w.ClearDay",weatherItem)
	DGS:dgsMenuAddItem(menu,"Storming","w.Storming",weatherItem)

local button = DGS:dgsCreateButton(400,400,100,50,"Right Click Here",false)
addEventHandler("onDgsMouseClickUp",button,function(button)
	if button == "right" then
		DGS:dgsMenuShow(menu)
	end
end)
addEventHandler("onDgsMenuSelect",menu,function(subMenu,uniqueID)
	local command = DGS:dgsMenuGetItemCommand(source,uniqueID)
	if command == "t.Day" then
		setTime(12,0)
	elseif command == "t.Night" then
		setTime(0,0)
	elseif command == "w.ClearDay" then
		setWeather(0)
	elseif command == "w.Storming" then
		setWeather(8)
	else
		return
	end
	DGS:dgsMenuHide(source)
end,false)
