Derma Help

[Borris_Squad]

So, people have been helping with derma, now i want to move into the more advance level.

How can i add a text box, wich a user enters an rp name, then a button that runs the command and inputs the name a user entered.

An example would be nice ;)

First, you'll make the frame.
Second, you'll set up the DTextEntry.
Finally, you'll set up the button.

local frame = vgui.Create("DFrame")
frame:SetSize(200,100)
frame:SetTitle("Change your RPName")
frame:Center()
local TextEntry = vgui.Create("DTextEntry")
TextEntry:AlignTop(0)
TextEntry:Dock(FILL)
local Button = vgui.Create("DButton")
Button:SetText("Change RPName")
Button:SetImage("icon16/accept.png")
Button:AlignBottom(0)
Button:Dock(FILL)
Button.DoClick = function()
    RunConsoleCommand("say","/rpname " .. TextEntry:GetValue())
end

This [I]should[/I] (untested) change their RPName.
The button makes them run the console command say (which makes the player chat) /rpname <TextEntry Value>
The docking and aligns may not be perfect.

 local frame = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
frame:SetSize( 750, 900 )
frame:Center()
frame:MakePopup()

local sheet = vgui.Create( "DPropertySheet", frame )
sheet:Dock( FILL )

local panel1 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel1.Paint = function( self, w, h ) draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, Color( 0, 128, 255, 0 ) ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "Character", panel1, "icon16/user.png" )

local panel2 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel2.Paint = function( self, w, h ) draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, Color( 255, 128, 0 ) ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "test 2", panel2, "icon16/tick.png" )


hook.Add( "PlayerBindPress", "F4", function(client, bind, pressed)
bind = bind:lower()
print("binding")

if (bind:find("gm_showhelp") and pressed) then
elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare1") and pressed) then
    elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare2") and pressed) then
CreatePanel()
    end
end)

Dont work, as in the F4 button does not open it :?

PlayerBindPress doesn't work like that.
Use [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/GM/ShowSpare2"]this[/URL] hook instead. It's serverside so you will need to do some networking.

Then your problem is the tabs!
Try removing those Paints and see if the tabs show up.

Yea, see this was my old code

 local function CreatePanel()
local Utility = vgui.Create ( "DFrame" )


Utility:SetPos( 5, 5 )
Utility:SetSize( 700, 900 )
Utility:SetTitle( "CivilisationRP Utility Menu" )
Utility:SetVisible( "true" )
Utility:SetDraggable( "true" )
Utility:ShowCloseButton( "true" )
Utility:MakePopup()
Utility:Center()

local Btn = vgui.Create ( "DButton", Utility )
Btn:SetText( "Click to connect 4Late Jailbreak." )
Btn:SetTextColor( Color( 0, 0, 0, 255) )
Btn:SetPos( 25, 50 )
Btn:SetSize( 60, 15 )


Btn.DoClick = function()
RunConsoleCommand("connect", "193.0.159.39:27490")
Utility:Remove() 
end
end

hook.Add( "PlayerBindPress", "F4", function(client, bind, pressed)
bind = bind:lower()
print("binding")

if (bind:find("gm_showhelp") and pressed) then
elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare1") and pressed) then
    elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare2") and pressed) then
CreatePanel()
    end
end)

and my new code

 local frame = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
frame:SetPos( 5, 5 )
frame:SetSize( 750, 900 )
frame:Center()
frame:MakePopup()
frame:SetTitle( "CivilisationRP Main Menu" )
frame:SetDraggable("true")
frame:ShowCloseButton("true")

local sheet = vgui.Create( "DPropertySheet", frame )
sheet:Dock( FILL )

local panel1 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel1.Paint = function( self, w, h ) draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, Color( 0, 128, 255, 0 ) ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "Character", panel1, "icon16/user.png" )

local TextEntry = vgui.Create("DTextEntry")
TextEntry:Center()
TextEntry:SetPos( 5, 5 )
TextEntry:SetSize( 700, 20 )

local Button = vgui.Create("DButton")
Button:SetText("Change RPName")
Button:SetImage("icon16/accept.png")
Button:SetSize( 20, 20)
Button:SetPos(25, 15 )
Button.DoClick = function()
    RunConsoleCommand("say","/rpname " .. TextEntry:GetValue())
end

local panel2 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel2.Paint = function( self, w, h ) draw.RoundedBox( 4, 0, 0, w, h, Color( 255, 128, 0 ) ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "test 2", panel2, "icon16/tick.png" )

hook.Add( "PlayerBindPress", "F4", function(client, bind, pressed)
bind = bind:lower()
print("binding")

if (bind:find("gm_showhelp") and pressed) then
elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare1") and pressed) then
    elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare2") and pressed) then
CreatePanel()
    end
end)

Wich is an utter mess and im gonna need help if im to ever get this finished dont work

[editline]31st August 2015[/editline]

Now i get this error

 
[ERROR] addons/updates/lua/autorun/client/cl_updates.lua:37: attempt to call global 'CreatePanel' (a nil value)
  1. fn - addons/updates/lua/autorun/client/cl_updates.lua:37
   2. unknown - addons/ulib/lua/ulib/shared/hook.lua:179

Im still new to this so you know :P

[YaYaBinks3]

You're getting that error because you removed the CreatePanel function.

I'd say recode it with help from [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/Category:DPropertySheet"]here[/URL].

[Borris_Squad]

Hang on i think i just fixed it

[editline]31st August 2015[/editline]

Nope i added the CreatePanel function and restarted but did not work.

Ehh im so bad at this :\ urmm, so i restarted using that exact code. Now i have removed the blue paint because it looks awful. Now i want to make it so F4 (F1 Mainly to open it).

[editline]31st August 2015[/editline]

 local function CreatePanel()
local frame = vgui.Create( "DFrame" )
frame:SetSize( 666, 800 )
frame:Center()
frame:MakePopup()
frame:SetTitle(" CivilisationRP Main Menu")

local sheet = vgui.Create( "DPropertySheet", frame )
sheet:Dock( FILL )

local panel1 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel1.Paint = function( self, w, h ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "Character", panel1, "icon16/user.png" )

local panel2 = vgui.Create( "DPanel", sheet )
panel2.Paint = function( self, w, h ) end
sheet:AddSheet( "Inventory", panel2, "icon16/box.png" )


hook.Add( "PlayerBindPress", "F4", function(client, bind, pressed)
bind = bind:lower()
print("binding")

if (bind:find("gm_showhelp") and pressed) then
elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare1") and pressed) then
    elseif (bind:find("gm_showspare2") and pressed) then
CreatePanel()
    end
end)

This does not work either.

[YaYaBinks3]

You did not add an end for the function.

[Borris_Squad]

Explain, how do i end it? Please understand this is my second ever language learnt.
