BubbleMessageComponent()

BubbleMessageComponent::BubbleMessageComponent

(

int

fadeOutLengthMs = 150

)

Creates a bubble component.

After creating one a BubbleComponent, do the following:

• add it to an appropriate parent component, or put it on the desktop with Component::addToDesktop (0).
• use the showAt() method to show a message.
• it will make itself invisible after it times-out (and can optionally also delete itself), or you can reuse it somewhere else by calling showAt() again.

~BubbleMessageComponent()

BubbleMessageComponent::~BubbleMessageComponent ( )

override

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

showAt() [1/2]

void BubbleMessageComponent::showAt	(	const Rectangle< int > &	position,
		const AttributedString &	message,
		int	numMillisecondsBeforeRemoving,
		bool	removeWhenMouseClicked = true,
		bool	deleteSelfAfterUse = false
	)

Shows a message bubble at a particular position.

This shows the bubble with its stem pointing to the given location (coordinates being relative to its parent component).

For details about exactly how it decides where to position itself, see BubbleComponent::updatePosition().

Parameters

position	the coords of the object to point to
message	the text to display
numMillisecondsBeforeRemoving	how long to leave it on the screen before removing itself from its parent component. If this is 0 or less, it will stay there until manually removed.
removeWhenMouseClicked	if this is true, the bubble will disappear as soon as a mouse button is pressed (anywhere on the screen)
deleteSelfAfterUse	if true, then the component will delete itself after it becomes invisible

showAt() [2/2]

void BubbleMessageComponent::showAt	(	Component *	component,
		const AttributedString &	message,
		int	numMillisecondsBeforeRemoving,
		bool	removeWhenMouseClicked = true,
		bool	deleteSelfAfterUse = false
	)

Shows a message bubble next to a particular component.

This shows the bubble with its stem pointing at the given component.

For details about exactly how it decides where to position itself, see BubbleComponent::updatePosition().

Parameters

component	the component that you want to point at
message	the text to display
numMillisecondsBeforeRemoving	how long to leave it on the screen before removing itself from its parent component. If this is 0 or less, it will stay there until manually removed.
removeWhenMouseClicked	if this is true, the bubble will disappear as soon as a mouse button is pressed (anywhere on the screen)
deleteSelfAfterUse	if true, then the component will delete itself after it becomes invisible
