A widgets library that can be used by plugin writers to more easily implement interactive UI elements. The plugin leverages Pragtical View system and provides ready to use components to reduce code duplication for stuff that most of the time is the same and simplify the process of writing your own GUI controls.
- dragging
- floating view
- on hover event
- basic onclick event
- tooltip by using status view
- detection of widgets that don't need update or drawing which lowers cpu usage
- child widget coordinates calculations relative to the parent widget
Components currently provided by this plugin are:
- Base Widget

You can also write your own re-usable components and share them back for everyone to benefit by opening a Pull Request!
The library is a git submodule of the Pragtical editor so no additional steps are neccesary to install.
Until some form of documentation is written check the examples directory which contains code samples to help you understand how to use the plugin. A good starting point can be the search mockup.
