Window

Introduction

Window is a forms control which can be moved and resized with the cursor. It can be used for movable UI such as an inventory popup, or for floating toolbars in game editors and tools.

Code Example

The following code creates a message box window.

var window = new Window();
window.Anchor(Gum.Wireframe.Anchor.Center);
window.Width = 300;
window.Height = 200;
window.AddToRoot();

var textInstance = new Label();
textInstance.Dock(Gum.Wireframe.Dock.Top);
textInstance.Y = 24;
textInstance.Text = "Hello I am a message box";
window.AddChild(textInstance);

var button = new Button();
button.Anchor(Gum.Wireframe.Anchor.Bottom);
button.Y = -10;
button.Text = "Close";
window.AddChild(button.Visual);
button.Click += (_, _) =>
{
    window.RemoveFromRoot();
};
