15:12 Sokomine   who's the current expert regarding formspecs? i'd really love https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues/8718 to get implemented. my own knowledge about guis is too limited (i hardly use them), and the formspec code didn't seem easy to gasp fast
15:15 rubenwardy Me, kr_ck, and the real coord guy
15:15 rubenwardy I'm not sure on the best approach to fix your problem anyway
15:16 Krock      from how I imagine Irrlicht, it could probably mean that the entire table code has to be copied over to change a few lines
15:16 Krock      dunno about the row drawing, though.
15:16 rubenwardy Tables are Minetest
15:16 Sokomine   hmm
15:16 rubenwardy like, it's our own element
15:16 rubenwardy also, textlists are tables
15:16 rubenwardy which makes it nice
15:16 Krock      oh? I thought lists and such were irrlicht-based
15:18 rubenwardy no, surprisingly
15:18 Sokomine   the real coordinates problem is quite diffrent from mine. i kind of need relative coordinates. or the tables extended
15:18 rubenwardy real coordinates doesn't add anything new, just makes things easier
15:18 rubenwardy *don't
15:18 Sokomine   sadly, such a problem isn't trivial even in latex. that has diffrent handling for multiline tables as well. rows would need to get higher
15:18 * Sokomine nods to rubenwardy
15:18 Krock      e->setTextList
15:18 rubenwardy https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/master/src/gui/guiTable.h
15:19 Sokomine   yes, found that. but it's nothing you can see through at a first or second glance, so i was hoping someone was more into that code
15:19 Krock      https://github.com/minetest/minetest/blob/b917ea4723fb0fe976486602a456c8dd41eab7ef/src/gui/guiTable.cpp#L679
15:19 Krock      row_rect would need to be changed
15:20 Krock      or rather, make m_rowheight dynamic
15:20 Krock      but this messes up the scrollbar positioning
15:23 Sokomine   turning too long cells into multiple lines might help on the drawing side - figure out how many "lines" needed and just insert them - but would also need changes regarding highlighting/selection and actually evaluating what has been selected
15:24 Sokomine   what about that html in formspecs approach seen on youtube? is that something really going on?
15:25 Sokomine   i mean that here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCL3-3UWAMEjalYeGYzZvjxg
15:27 Sokomine   krock: it might help slightly with the rowheight that each row would still have a height that is n times that of a normal height
15:28 Sokomine   this feels so much like a basic gui problem...hasn't anybody ever done something like that in irrlicht?

21:28 pauloue    why are luaL_check* functions called from the C++ API ??
21:35 rubenwardy what do you mean?
21:38 pauloue    a Lua error in the C++ API will trigger a Lua panic which does an abort()
21:38 pauloue    also those functions are for checking function arguments
21:40 pauloue    https://www.lua.org/manual/5.1/manual.html#4
21:40 rubenwardy ah yes, I misunderstood "C++ API" to mean in C++
21:41 pauloue    oh I mean script/cpp_api
