Solved set skin offset persistence

Hi guys,

I was trying to make persistent the wallpaper when it moves from A image to B image but not sure what should I do here. Any help is highly appreciated.

Code:

on init
  make_perfview
  set_ui_height_px(540)
  set_control_par_str($INST_WALLPAPER_ID,$CONTROL_PAR_PICTURE,"DifferentBackground")
  declare $count
  declare ui_button $switch_wp
  set_control_par_str(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_PICTURE,"btn_1")
  set_control_par_str(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_TEXT,"")
  set_control_par(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_WIDTH,40)
  set_control_par(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_HEIGHT,40)
  set_control_par(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_POS_X,296)
  set_control_par(get_ui_id($switch_wp),$CONTROL_PAR_POS_Y,430)
end on

on persistence_changed
  if ($switch_wp=1)
    $count := 0
    while ($count<1150)
      set_skin_offset($count)
      wait(5000)
      inc($count)
    end while
  else
    set_skin_offset(0)
  end if
end on
 
on ui_control($switch_wp)
  if ($switch_wp=1)
    $count := 0
    while ($count<1150)
      set_skin_offset($count)
      wait(5000)
      inc($count)
    end while
  else
    set_skin_offset(0)
  end if
end on

EDIT: The on persistence part does the trick but I'm not sure if its the right way of doing it.

 

Don't do that wait in persistence_changed. But that's the way to go yes.

set_skin_offset(1150 * $switch_wp)

Then just make $switch_wp persistent.

 

Thanks ED,

hmm okay. Im thinking about the on persistence part will include a lot of different "end ifs" and maybe they will not work properly.

Code:

on persistence_changed
  if ($switch_wp=1)
    $count := 0
    while ($count<1150)
      set_skin_offset($count)
      wait(5000)
      inc($count)
    end while
  else
    set_skin_offset(0)
  end if

  if ($switch_Db=1)
    $count := 0
    while ($count<1150)
      set_skin_offset($count)
      wait(5000)
      inc($count)
    end while
  else
    set_skin_offset(0)
  end if
end on

something like this i.e. Don't know if this is ok

 

You don't need this at all. All you need is just one set_skin_offset() in there. Please don't do that animation in persistence_changed, it will be annoying to people.

 

Haha no no, it's just for testing purpose. Thanks Ed!
