Hi,
I am trying to make a duplicate of the Racial Custom Specials tab for Pathfinder. I cannot seem to get the various it_bootcustom things to display correctly. Here is the troublesome section: Code:
<inputthing name="Special Abilities"> <it_separator/> </inputthing> <inputthing name="Fly Speed?" helptext="If this racial custom grants a fly speed, specify it here."> <it_bootcustom compset="Ability"> <match><![CDATA[thingid.xFly]]></match> <inputthing name="Speed?" helptext="If the fly speed has a fixed value, enter it here."> <it_tagpick group="Value" tag="?"/> </inputthing> <inputthing name="Maneuverability" helptext="Specify the Maneuverability this creature flies at."> <it_tagpick group="Maneuver" tag="?"/> </inputthing> <inputthing name="Not Natural?" helptext="Specify if the fly speed is not from a natural source. This means the fly skill will not be a class skill, and not recieve racial bonuses from the Maneuverability.

You're closing the editor and re-opening it between ctrl-r's, right? Ctrl-r doesn't always refresh everything properly if the editor is still open.

Can try again tonight with a fresh start. I didn't think of this as the other features of the editor where not having problems. Just normal fields or tag selections where working fine using CTRL-R.

I've found that ctrl-r is fine when just changing the text of an editor option or changing the field it's assigned to, but it doesn't always work right if you change the number of editor options on a tab, and it really doesn't work right if you change the group a tab is assigned to or add a new tab.

Yes I am closing and reopening the editor between refreshing. I have also tried closing the editor and recompiling as well quitting hero lab and restarting. The issue still persists.

Okay, what are you seeing, and what do you expect to see? You've posted a dense wall of code, and it's hard to read with such odd indenting, so I'm not quite sure what problem you're having.

Here are some examples:
For Fly: Code:
<inputthing name="Fly Speed?" helptext="If this racial custom grants a fly speed, specify it here."> <it_bootcustom compset="Ability"> <match><![CDATA[thingid.xFly]]></match> <inputthing name="Speed?" helptext="If the fly speed has a fixed value, enter it here."> <it_tagpick group="Value" tag="?"/> </inputthing> <inputthing name="Maneuverability" helptext="Specify the Maneuverability this creature flies at."> <it_tagpick group="Maneuver" tag="?"/> </inputthing> <inputthing name="Not Natural?" helptext="Specify if the fly speed is not from a natural source. This means the fly skill will not be a class skill, and not recieve racial bonuses from the Maneuverability. For example, the Neolithid has a fly speed from a constant spell-like ability."> <it_tagcheck group="Helper" tag="NotNatural"/> </inputthing> </it_bootcustom> </inputthing> What I should see For Other speeds: Code:
<inputthing name="Other Movement Types?" helptext="Select any other movement types this racial custom ability grants"> <it_bootcustom compset="Ability"> <match><![CDATA[SpecType.Movement & !thingid.xFly]]></match> <inputthing name="Speed?" helptext="If movement speed has a fixed value, enter it here."> <it_tagpick group="Value" tag="?"/> </inputthing> </it_bootcustom> </inputthing> What I should see Last edited by frumple; July 28th, 2014 at 01:20 PM. |

And now a wall of images.
Okay, I'm working on matching a single image to the relevant lines of code. |
