Hey Robert: Smoke7

YES! Please add firing smoke and star shells to the tool bar button menu! Big Grin

Very cool.

Awesome

even.

With this ancient codebase, with my current C++ coding skills, with my limited free time to do this? Impossible!

ROTFLMAO

Next question?

OTOH, given enough time -- into next year and beyond -- who knows what UI extensions I might eventually be able to achieve? Helmet Wink

Currently, and traditionally, the Campaign Series has explicitly supported, in the code, the following bygone-era Windows standard screen sizes:
  • 640x480
  • 800x600
  • 1024x768
If you didn't know, you would get fewer toolbar buttons as you move from 1024x768 to the smaller screen sizes. (Larger screen sizes of course present no problem.)

Questions: Does anybody really still use
  • 640x480?
  • 800x600?
especially the first of those two. If so, please speak up.

As we move to add more icons/buttons to the game engine toolbar, we need to know how important it is for us to account for these earlier, bygone-era screen sizes.

Not me. I'm using a laptop plugged into a 21 inch flatscreen at the moment (1680x1050), but am thinking of a 27" or larger soon. Old eyes. Smile

I'm still a Dinosaur on 1024 x 768 on a 17" Monitor, hoping to upgrade as and when finances allow.

That's okay. We are thinking of establishing 1024x768 as the new minimum. Smaller display than that, you are SOL.
