Interface Widgets

	Not used yet
	Most of the stuff described here is not valid yet. It's the result of some experimenting which is on hold now.

Overview

Blender's interface widget code is kept quite separated from the other UI code. Main reason for this is to make later refactors or rewrites easier.
Also, in future it might be interesting to see if we can modularize the code even more so that they can be made a standalone library which can be reused in other applications (e.g. Blenderplayer, Cycles standalone).

Communication with the other UI code happens via the widget API in interface_widgets.c

Draw-styles:

An important part in the widget code architecture is the support for draw-styles. The idea behind draw-styles is to provide an option for the user to tweak the visual widget style for his personal preference (more info here). For each draw-style, the widget drawing can be completely different. To support this properly, each draw-style has its own file (drawstyle_xxx.c) in which the drawing for each widget is defined.

Widget API

Widget API functions for external access

WidgetTypeInit

Description:

Initializes uiWidgetType based on the widget type.

Parameters:

Parameter	Description
const uiWidgetTypeEnum type	Widget type to initialize

Returns:
The initialized uiWidgetType.

WidgetDraw

Description:
Handles and triggers widget main draw routine.

• passing NULL for but disables calling custom draw callback and text callback,
• passing NULL for fstyle or str disables calling text callback

Parameters:

Parameter	Description
uiWidgetType *wt	uiWidgetType initialized by WidgetTypeInit
uiBut *but	uiBut version of this widget (yep, this is bad, we should get rid of it)
rcti *rect	Rectangle to use for drawing
int state	Flags for the current state of the widget
int roundboxalign	Flags to set which corners will become rounded (e.g. UI_CNR_TOP_LEFT, UI_CNR_BOTTOM_RIGHT, UI_CNR_NONE, UI_CNR_ALL)
const int iconid	Index of the icon to draw
const char *str	String to use for text drawing
const bool use_text_blend	Enables transparency for text drawing

Widget types

Note: The below described drawing characteristics refer to the "Classic" draw-style. Since drawing can be completely different between draw-styles, there might be deviations.
