#1

Can anyone give me a working HUD example !!!

#2

I created an example: http://cocos2d-x.org/wiki/How_To_Create_A_HUD

#3

I am getting error in the wiki code !!!

#4

You should compare the release notes for 3.0 and 3.1 and see why.

This code is 3.0 and something changed in 3.1

I know, it is a very easy fix, but did you really even try and figure out your error?

I’ll update the Wiki entry Monday.

#5

had a look…found nothing on net…
well will surely look in release notes…

#6

I’ll give you a hint. Matrix and Vector2 were renamed in 3.1

#7

Surprise…i am using cocos2d-x V 3.0…and these problems are occuring in V 3.0…

#8

Glad you fixed it.

#9

Could you update your link? It’s broken

#10

I’m interesting in how to make the position of UI elements fixed and not depending on camera position

#11

You can download the old wiki:

#12

I’ve ported your example in newer version but that doesn’t do what I need. Labels still anchored in World space instead of Screen. When I moving the camera label moves too. I wanted to fix label position to keep it at the screen independently on current camera position

#13

The maximum I came up with is

void Scene::update(float delta) { Node::update(delta); _hud->setPosition(_defaultCamera->getPosition()); }

Reposition hud in every tick. So-so approach

#14

That works but I think not the best approach.
What kind of game are you making?

#15

I’m making an open world tile-based game. I want to show what position of player is now at the left top corner of the screen. My player (sprite) is moving onTouch and I have a component class FollowTarget : public cocos2d::Component that accepts a Node*. In update it updates this _owner position according to given node. I add that component to _defaultCamera of my scene. So when moving my player it automatically moves my camera
