Week 10: Its time for a Spin-Box!#
What did you do this week?#
This week, my focus shifted to the SpinBoxUI after wrapping up work on TextBlock2D. SpinBoxUI is a component that allows users to select a value by spinning through a range. To ensure a smooth transition, I made adjustments in SpinBoxUI to align it with the recent updates in TextBlock2D. To make things even clearer and more user-friendly, I initiated a continuous code improvement process. I introduced setters and getters that enable easier customization of TextBlock2D’s new features, such as auto_font_scale and dynamic_bbox. These tools simplify the process of adjusting these settings, and you can see the ongoing changes in pull request #830.
Simultaneously, I worked on improving the FileDialog component. Since the FileDialog PR was based on an older version, it required updates to match the recent developments in TextBlock2D. This involved restructuring the code and making sure that everything worked smoothly together. You can checkout the progress here at PR #832.
Did you get stuck anywhere?#
Thankfully, this week was quite smooth sailing without any major roadblocks.
What is coming up next?#
Looking ahead, my plan is to finalize the integration of the updated TextBlock and SpinBoxUI components. This entails making sure that everything works seamlessly together and is ready for the next stages of development.
