Hi

I want to create a dynamical moving list like in an aircraft for failures. So anything critical in red should go on top, other moving down one. Non critical, yellow go in the middle and warnings in white below. I want to create a texture for each failure and set it active or not. When active inserting depending the color.

First thoughts are alike:

typedef struct {
int active;

int type; // 1=integer 2=float 3=int array 4=float array 5=two ints 6=two floats
// 7=two array ints 8=two array floats
int index; // index into array
char label[100]; //dataref
int color; // 1=white 2=green 3=yellow 4=blue 5=red 6=cyan
char text[100]; //texturefilename
} FAILURES;

int mListe ()
{
std::list<int> mylist (2,100); // two ints with a value of 100
mylist.push_front (200);
mylist.push_front (300);

std::cout << "mylist contains:";
for (std::list<int>::iterator it=mylist.begin(); it!=mylist.end(); ++it)

//need to display textures here
std::cout << ' ' << *it;

std::cout << '\n';
return 0;
}

So basically how to write the mListe function.

- push/pop textures from Failures

- display, move up/down

Image display is something alike:

glPushMatrix();
glBlendFunc(GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
XPLMBindTexture2d(textures[MAUS2_TEXTURE].texIMGID, 0);
glColor3f(1, 1, 1);
glTexEnvf(GL_TEXTURE_ENV,GL_TEXTURE_ENV_MODE,GL_MODULATE);
glBegin(GL_QUADS);
glTexCoord2i(0, 0);
glVertex2f(x-25, y+25); //top left corner
glTexCoord2i(0, 1);
glVertex2i(x+25, y+25); //top right corner
glTexCoord2i(1, 1);
glVertex2i(x+25, y-25); //bottom right corner
glTexCoord2i(1, 0);
glVertex2i(x-25, y-25); //bottom left corner
glEnd();
glPopMatrix();

so y height should change dynamically.

Many thanks for any feedback.

Apart from changing from on to off I see for now no need they would change. Critical is always critical etc. Maybe later in a checklist this might change. So first critical, then advisory later warning etc. probably sorting with the class color.

For now I wonder how to push the class into list:

typedef struct {
int active; // 0=not 1=load once 2=refresh often
int type; // 1=integer 2=float 3=int array 4=float array 5=two ints 6=two floats
int index; // index into array
char label[100];
int color; // 1=white 2=green 3=yellow 4=blue 5=red 6=cyan
char text[100];
char next[100];
float min;
float empty;
float nom;
float full;
float max;
float scale;
XPLMDataRef dataref; // load ref pointer at first update; set NULL until then
char data[200];
XPLMCommandRef functionref; // load ref pointer at first update; set NULL until then
char function[200];
float nom2;
XPLMDataRef dataref2; // load ref pointer at first update; set NULL until then
char data2[200];
float scale2;
} Ausfaelle;


Ausfaelle Ausfaelle_Line[]={
{ 1, 2, 0, "OUTSID", 1, " EXTERNAL CHECKS PAGE 3", "" ,0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 1,NULL, "sim/cockpit2/annunciators/passenger_oxy_on", NULL, "", 0, NULL, "", 1 },
{ 1, 22, 0, "", 2, "..SERVICE.ACCESS.DOORS.......OPEN", "" , 0, 0.5, 1, 1, 2, 1,NULL, "sim/cockpit2/ice/ice_surface_boot_on", NULL, "", 1, NULL, "", 1 },
{ 1, 2, 0, "", 3, "..HYDRAULIC.OIL..................", "" , 0, 0, 1, 2, 2, 1,NULL, "sim/cockpit2/annunciators/autopilot_disconnect", NULL, "", 0, NULL, "", 1 },
};


int mListe ()
{
std::vector<int> bar;
std::list<int>::iterator it;
// int foo[] = {10,20,30,40,50};
Ausfaelle_Line *it = new Ausfaelle;

// iterate foo: inserting into bar
for (auto it = std::begin(Ausfaelle_Line); it!=std::end(Ausfaelle_Line); ++it)
bar.push_back(*it);

return 0;
}

Many thanks
