Change derma panel shape

[Traziiex]

Hi everyone !

Basically I want to know how to change the shape of a derma panel ^^
Like it is normally a square/rectangle. Would like for example a triangle... Thanks ^^

Bye c:

*EDIT*

I should maybe have posted this in "Problems that don't need their own thread". Sorry.

You could technically fake it by simply overwriting your frames Paint call and in that you draw a triangle using [URL="http://wiki.garrysmod.com/page/surface/DrawPoly"]surface.DrawPoly[/URL]

frame:MakePopup()
frame.Paint = function(pnl, w, h)
draw.NoTexture()
surface.SetDrawColor(20, 20, 20, 200)
surface.DrawPoly(pnl.triangle)

But how do I use something like Category:AvatarImage on a surface.DrawPoly ?

Thank you for this. But is there a way to just show the avatar on the HUD using surface.DrawRect (or something like that). I don't really need to have the derma. I could maybe try to hide the derme... but would be better just have a surface.Something() with the avatar on it ^^

*_EDIT_*

Sorry for being annoying ! :c

The DFrame element is not required. You can remove it.

So can the player's avatar be a texture or a material ?

Made an enhanced avatar image.

Use PANEL:SetType(type [int], direction [bool]) on your enhanced avatar panel.

Here's the 5 different numbers you can choose for type.
1. Hexagon
2. Triangle
3. Circle
4. Square
5. Pentagon

Direction is optional, it defaults to false if not set.
Panel defaults to square if you don't set anything.
Only hexagon (1) and triangle (2) have support for direction.
