NODEGRAPH: drag create a window

I am trying to do a button, when you click it and drag from it, a window sticks to the mouse pointer until release.

Nothing I am doing works. When I click the button the statically generated window disapears (it's not even draggable...)

Code (csharp):

1.  
2. /* Window example */
3.  
4. var windowRects = new Array();
5. var windowRect : Rect = Rect (20, 20, 120, 50);
6.  
7. function OnGUI ()
8. {
9.     windowRect = GUI.Window (0, windowRect, WindowFunction, "My Window");
10.     var dragAdding: boolean;
11.     if (GUI.RepeatButton (Rect (Screen.width - 105, Screen.height - 35, 100, 30), "add window"))
12.         {
13.             if (dragAdding)
14.             {
15.                 // dragging the window... however it's done
16.                 }
17.                 else
18.                 {
19.                     dragAdding = true;
20.                     CreateWindow(Input.mousePosition);
21.                 }
22.         }
23.         else
24.             dragAdding = false;
25.    
26.     for (var w : Rect in windowRects)
27.     {
28.         w = GUI.Window (0, w, WindowFunction, "My Window");
29.     }
30.  
31. }
32.  
33. function WindowFunction (windowID : int)
34. {
35.     // Draw any Controls inside the window here
36. }
37.  
38. function CreateWindow(v: Vector2)
39. {
40.     windowRects.Push(Rect (v.x, v.y, 100, 30));
41. }
42.  

 

My guess is that Buttons and RepeatButtons don't return true until they receive a MouseUp event. As a result, you may not be able to make this using a button, or many other GUI elements as they are all waiting for the MouseUp.

 

thanks! that was it
