mouse hover* events not implemented about gemrb HOT 8 CLOSED

hmmm, they both used to work

from gemrb.

well, what do you mean by "hover". AFIK you are talking about these event handlers:
View::OnMouseEnter
View::OnMouseLeave
View::OnMouseOver

and for drag:
View::OnMouseDrag

from gemrb.

the names are from the action names: Hover, HoverBegin, HoverEnd. That and the fact that it's near impossible to get tooltips is what I'm going off.

from gemrb.

I'm not sure anything is binding to those yet. the tooltips for buttons used to work (if they no longer do), but I dont think those were implemented using a callback.

from gemrb.

So then, are they useful to have at all?

from gemrb.

they will be. I don't remember the specifics anymore, but some of the UpdateXXXWindow functionality can be replaced with callbacks for these events so we end up just updating the changed parts as they change.

something for much further down the road of course.

from gemrb.

Only Hover is left unbound, so perhaps this can be closed.

from gemrb.

Hover would be useful if we needed to do something each tick while hovering (as opposed to begin/end). Can't think of anything that would need that right now, so just closing.
