* Moved localised I/O port name lookup into I/O port manager. Vas Crabb2021-12-091-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added pseudo format specifiers to controller port names: %p for player and %% for literal percent symbol. This lets you get the localised player identifier in overridden input names (see NES and Neo-Geo for examples), and reduces the number of messages to translate. For translators, the new messages are mostly previously existing messages with wording adjusted for clarity (e.g. referring to "media" rather than "ROMs" in several places, as things like disk and tape images are included). It's also possible to localise the "???" dipslayed for an input without a valid name, but that should never actually appear in practice.
* plugins: Reduced amnesia for autofire and inputmacro plugins. Vas Crabb2021-11-051-45/+60
| | | | | | Made autofire and inputmacro plugins capable of remembering settings if the host input device for the binding is missing or if an input for a slot device that isn't present is referenced.
* Fix various usability issues: Vas Crabb2021-11-021-12/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | frontend: Made it so you can press UI On Screen Display to hide the Analog Controls menu and see the response to your inputs without the risk of changing settings, and see more axes at once and scroll them for systems with very large number of axes. Also ensure the axis being configured is visible when the menu is visible, and made the menu behave a bit more like the system input assignments menu (including previous/next group navigation). frontend: Allow Lua to draw to the UI container - this addresses the main complaint in #7475. Note that drawing to the UI container will draw over any UI elements, including menus. Plugins can check menu_active to avoid drawing over menus. Also removed some unnecessary use of sol::overload. frontend: Improved info/image box navigation on the system/softwre selection menus, and cleaned up some leftover code that came from the copy/pasted event handling functions. frontend: Fixed sliders menu not handling Alt+Shift as intended (thanks Coverity). Fixed a couple of harmless Coverity errors, too. emu/inpttype.ipp: Made the default assignment for Save State recognise right shift. plugins: Added next/previous group navigation to input macro edit menu. docs: Added basic description of the system and software selection menus, and corrected a couple of errors in the Lua reference.
* -frontend: Refactored menu event handling and fixed a number of issues. (#8777) Vas Crabb2021-10-311-141/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | * Moved common code for drawing about box, info viewer, and other text box menus to a base class; removed the last of the info viewer logic and the multi-line item hack from the base menu class. * Added previous/next group navigation for general inputs and plugin input selection menus. * Moved message catalog logic to lib/util, allowing osd and emu to use localised messages. * Made the base menu class use the UI manager’s feature for holding session state rather than a static map and mutex. * Improved menu event handling model, and fixed many issues, particularly with menus behaving badly when hidden/shown. * Added better support for menus that don’t participate in the usual menu stack, like the menuless sliders and the save/load state menus. * Made a number of menus refresh state when being shown after being hidden (fixes MT08121 among other issues). * Fixed indication of mounted slot option in the slot option details menu. * Improved appearance of background menus when emulation isn't running - draw all menus in the stack, and darken the background menus to make the edges of the active menu clearer. * Fixed locale issues in -listxml. -debugger: Made GUI debuggers more uniform. * Added new memory view features to Win32 debugger. * Fixed spelling of hexadecimal in Cocoa debugger and added decimal address option. * Fixed duplicate keyboard shortcut in Cocoa debugger (Shift-Cmd-D was both new device window and 64-bit float format). * Made keyboard shortcuts slightly more consistent across debuggers. -plugins: Moved input selection menu and sequence polling code to a common library. Fixed the issue that prevented keyboard inputs being mapped with -steadykey on. -docs: Started adding some documentation for MAME's internal UI, and updated the list of example front-ends. -Regenerated message catalog sources. For translators, the new strings are mostly: * The names of the inputs provided by the OS-dependent layer for things like fullscreen and video features. These show up in the user interface inputs menu. * The names for automatically generated views. These show up in the video options menu - test with a system with a lot of screens to see more variants. * The input macro plugin UI. * A few format strings for analog input assignments. * A few strings for the about box header.
* plugins: Use SPDX short identifiers for licenses in exports (more precise ↵ Vas Crabb2021-10-251-0/+4
| | | | and easier to localise), use CC0 for hiscore plugin rather than CC0.
* Plugin updates: Vas Crabb2021-10-241-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Changed the hiscore plugin to save inside the "hiscore" folder in the plugin data directory. The old hiscore path setting has already been removed from MAME for some time. This means the plugin was always saving in the "hi" folder in the working directory with no way to change it, which is problematic on Linux and macOS, particularly for distro packagers. There are lots of plugin and UI changes in this release, so we may as well get this out of the way now. Also made it possible to change the "timed save" option from the Plugin Options menu, and save that in the data folder, too. Documented the input macro plugin. The only undocumented plugins now are the cheat plugin, the cheat finder plugin, and the port name plugin.
* Plugin usability improvements: Vas Crabb2021-10-221-8/+40
| | | | | | | | | | * autofire, inputmacro: Made left/right repeat when held (makes setting long delays/durations easier). * autofire, inputmacro: Added headings for devices in input selection menus (helps when controller buttons have identical names, e.g. AES) * autofire: Made intial selection when moving between menus intuitive, log some errors on saving/loading configuration. * autofire: Fixed two errors in Chinese localisations.
* frontend: Beter provision for plugins with multiple menu levels. Vas Crabb2021-10-211-7/+50
| | | | | | | | | Make it possible for a plugin to specify which item should be selected on repopulate. Also allowed plugins to specify the UI heading flag for menu items. Updated input macro plugin to select sane items when changing menus. Other plugins not updated yet, but may be at some point in the future.
* -plugins: Added an input macro plugin. Vas Crabb2021-10-211-0/+586
-plugins: Sort input selection menus for autofire plugin. -frontend: Fixed another case where the menus may not automatically scroll the first item into view.
