but first a suggested alteration, perhaps it should be in Common UI/Button Interactions folder instead?
I don't think it's a button event receiver. It doesn't need a button event. It works on any UIX element without a button.
Ahh yes, I remember thinking about these during the old times™. Absolutely agree on those being a convenient addition, especially with localized values for dynamic variables.
As a motivation:
I just tried to setup a tooltip system for one of my creations and unfortunately had to find out that I'd need a HoverDynamicReferenceSet<Slot>
if I want to keep the complexity within the UI small.
The biggest challenge is to get the global position of the UIX element. With a small amount of ProtoFlux per element you may get a global position but that won't stay valid when the object is moving or if you want to handle multiple objects with the same system. Keeping a reference to the UI slot would solve that.
I'll add a bunch more when I get time!
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It is a tad tedious for simple buttons to simply write a value to a dynamic variable, its either ButtonValueSet + DynamicValueVariable (which can cause issues in some cases as thats a new storage field for dynvars) or flux with ButtonEvents + WriteDynamicVariable
Describe the solution you'd like
The new
HoverDynamicValueSet
in the PRERELEASE build is intriguing for a variety of reasons, but first a suggested alteration, perhaps it should be in Common UI/Button Interactions folder instead?But my main ask is: Could we get a few more Button-Events reactive components similar to this? such as:
HoverDynamicReferenceSet<T>
ButtonDynamicReferenceSet<T>
ButtonDynamicValueSet<T>
Describe alternatives you've considered
Continue doing what I described in first section?
