[Request]
This would be an easy one, could someone make a widget that creates a scrollable box on the screen that shows the commands we can use (like healthbars, the different views, etc etc etc). I keep forgetting which key does what and this would be mighty useful.

I don't think hes actually made one matt.
I would do it and it is probably the most easy thing to make, but i know nothing of LUA or anything
Maybe i should look it up?? Would anyone find it useful apart from me, i would gladly take time to look it up unless someone else can quickly do it.

there is no way to list commands wich aren't binding because of their current code structure (the widget reads the chat lines & tries to match for the command), so the widget you requested wouldn't be able to list them automatically unless:
a: you add a new table/class/function to add a binding to the list, and even in such case, all widgets would have to get updated in order to broadcast their command list
b: you maintain a txt/string/table based list with manual entries, but the job of this widget can be esily replaced by pen&paper(TM) with the advantage of not coding a GUI for it

Like i never saw that comming, i posted to point the guy out. Your just making it worse.Snipawolf wrote:And the point in this post?clericvash wrote:And the fucking point in that post was what?tombom wrote: Are you serious![]()
Fairly hypocritical there...
I guess this would be a useful widget, I hardly use the F* keys as is, though.

If I understand what you want correctly:
1./keysave (in game)
2. Print the results in $SPRING/uikeys.tmp
P.S. You could setup a widget to display the uikeys.tmp results in a scrollbox
(after having done Spring.SendCommands({'keysave'}) ). You could also use
the GetKeyBindings() and GetActionHotKeys() LuaUI call-outs to search for
specific bindings.

That's exactly what tombom said. Allow me to rephrase his sentence so it is clearer.clericvash wrote:I was replying to matt
It was obvious to pretty much everyone that both crampman and lordmatt were joking, but you seemed to be dead serious and oblivious to the joke. Hence tombom asking if you were serious.tombom (paraphrased) wrote:In response to lordmatt jokingly asking for crampman's widget,
you said you didn't think crampman had "actually made one."
I wasn't being sarcastic. I really would like the post-it note making widget to be uploaded to UF. I'd also like a widget that does my medical school applications for me so I have more time to play spring.tombom wrote:You said that you didn't think the guy who said tohad "actually made one" in response to someone clearly being sarcastic.1) Take a post-it
2) Write the commands
3) Stuck it on your screen
4) Done !
