Combined with the previous new feature, you can now adjust your UI according to your users' inputs

The following example uses it to change the visibility of certain categories based on user input without them having to hit save

//Create a method you can pass as a delegate
internal static void UpdateCategoryVis(object newValue)
{
    Experimental.IsHidden = !(bool)newValue;
    TestBooleans.IsHidden = !(bool)newValue;
    TestEmptyDisplayName.IsHidden = !(bool)newValue;
}

Create a new instance of UserEditNotifier and set this as the action for OnUserEdit

EnableDebugMode = CatUIFramework.CreateEntry("EnableDebugMode", false, "Enable Debug Logs", "Enables or disables debug logs for UIFramework.", false, false, new UserEditNotifier { OnUserEdit = UpdateCategoryVis });

Just call UI.RequestRefresh(modInstance)

Create an items list

// It takes a list of DropdownItems which take a string as a display name, and a value of type object 
List<DropdownItem> itemList = new();

Create an instance of the DynamicDropdownDescriptor class passing the item list as a parameter in the constructor

public static DynamicDropdownDescriptor DropdownDescriptor = new(itemList);

Add items with

DropdownDescriptor.AddDropdownItem(new DropdownItem("Display Name", value)); 

or declare a list separately and set it with SetDropdownItems

Pass it into the CreateEntry validator parameter

DropdownTest = Category.CreateEntry("DropdownTest", -1, "Dropdown Test", "Dynamic dropdown test.", false, false, DropdownDescriptor);

The UI window is now draggable by the title bar.

If ModUI is enabled, and it has the VR Menu Toggle setting enabled, UI Framework will follow ModUI's visibility. If ModUI is visible (when the VR toggle is pressed), UI Framework will also be visible and vice versa. If you don't have ModUI or the setting is off, UI Framework will toggle normally with the VR toggle.

The toggle with VR buttons preference is also no longer a thing. A new preference is added for toggling with VR, keyboard, or both.

The Value property for entries won't update anymore until the save button is clicked. If you need to access the new value before it's been saved, you can get the EditedValue property instead.

Serialization and parsing is now handled by Tomlet. Anything Tomlet supports is now technically supported by UIFramework.

More details in the Type Support section

Just add [assembly: UIInfo("My Mod's Better\nDisplay Name")] to your assembly attributes to display your mod's name differently on its button in UI Framework. Yes, it supports line breaks

Entries with IsHidden set to true won't be listed in the preferences list anymore.

I came up with a system to use MelonLoader's custom validator feature to add extra UI configurations for entries. The new sliders and buttons feature are implemented through this system.

Modders can now implement sliders for numeric vlaues.

MySlider = Category.CreateEntry("MySlider", 0.5f, "My Slider", "Float Slider",false, false, new SliderDescriptor { Min = 0, Max = 1, DecimalPlaces = 3 });

Modders can now add their own buttons as entries into UI Framework.

UI.CreateButtonEntry(MelonPreferences_Category category, string buttonText, string displayName, string description, Action handler)

Go to Buttons for more details.

whoops

I somehow missed an entire boolean. Sorry Ulvak.

*^{This will only affect messages when you save or load through UI Framework. It will not suppress messages from melonloader itself when the game starts or closes.}

^{I did have to change the .Register() function's signature. Right now, I have an overload for the old function for backwards compatibility. More details at the bottom of the page}

You can now subscribe to the OnModSaved event that triggers when the saved button is clicked while your mod is selected. This is an alternative for OnPreferencesSaved from MelonPreferences which gets called per category. This one is called once and only if your mod is selected.

UI.Register(this, OBSAutoRecorderSettings, TestCategory1, TestCategory2...).OnModSaved += MyModSaved;

^{*btw while text wrapping is disabled in mod list buttons, your MelonInfo name property does support spaces and line breaks that you can add manually if your mod name is still too long to fit into one line}

Comes with new settings:

• Auto Hide on Inactivity
• Inactivity Timeout

Made discard button visible to load the saved values from the preferences file
