Xtimato - Made with Terminal.Gui

Just thought you might like to see what I'm using Terminal.Gui for.
This is Xtimato, a construction cost estimation and tracking system.

Wow, that looks beautiful 😍 nice color choices! App looks very cool too.

Thanks for sharing. It's always nice to see what people are making with Terminal.Gui

Glorious.

This is 16 color mode, the only way I know of to have a transparent background.

@tznind Filename preserved. Thanks!

Loving the new visual style options!!

More to come too. Menuv2 is only barely working. 😉

I want check boxes on dialogs to follow my visual language for dialogs:

• Highlighted value (such as selected text in a TextField) will be replaced by the next valid keystroke.

Easy, I set the following in InitializeComponent:

// ...the rest of the dialog initialization

_isOwnedCheck.SetScheme(new Scheme(GetScheme())
{
    Focus = new Attribute(
            GetScheme().Editable.Foreground,
            GetScheme().Focus.Background,
            TextStyle.Reverse),
});

// the rest of the dialog initialization...

I challenge you to use the GetiongAttributeForRole() API instead.

Generally, changing a Scheme is less dynamic.

I think you meant GetAttributeForRole.

[YourRobotOverlord]

Challenge accepted:

_isOwnedCheck.GettingAttributeForRole += (_, e) =>
{
    if (e.Role is not VisualRole.Focus)
        return;

    e.NewValue = e.NewValue with
    {
        // use the Editable foreground of the parent dialog
        Foreground = GetScheme().Editable.Foreground,
        Style = TextStyle.Reverse
    };
    e.Cancel = true;
};

Is that correct?

I see now GettingAttributeForRole , very useful indeed. Great.

Added "intellisense" to fields that accept parameters:

Example

The first suggestion in the clip is provided by TextField.Autocomplete, the second is using a PopoverMenu that is summoned using a keystroke (ctrl+j, in this case).
Both are dynamically generated from a list of parameters available for the particular item.
