# MGUI

MGUI is a UI framework for [MonoGame](https://www.monogame.net/) ([Src](https://github.com/MonoGame/MonoGame)) that features a powerful layout engine and data binding engine similar to WPF, and a robust set of controls to build your UI with.

All control names are prefixed with 'MG' and many controls have similar names and properties to what you might find in WPF. Currently supported controls:
- 'Container'-like Controls that define their own logic for arranging their children:
  - MGDockPanel
  - MGGrid
  - MGOverlayPanel
  - MGStackPanel
  - MGUniformGrid
- Controls that can have child Content:
  - MGBorder
  - MGButton
  - MGCheckBox
  - MGComboBox
  - MGContextMenu
  - MGContextMenuItem
  - MGXAMLDesigner
  - MGExpander
  - MGGroupBox
  - MGListBox
  - MGListView
  - MGProgressButton
  - MGRadioButton
  - MGScrollViewer
  - MGTabControl
  - MGTabItem
  - MGToggleButton
  - MGToolTip
  - MGWindow
- Controls that cannot have child Content:
  - MGGridSplitter
  - MGImage
  - MGPasswordBox
  - MGProgressBar
  - MGRatingControl
  - MGResizeGrip
  - MGSeparator
  - MGSlider
  - MGStopwatch
  - MGTextBlock
  - MGTextBox
  - MGTimer

MGUI can also parse and render your XAML markup at runtime using the MGXAMLDesigner control:
![XAML Designer](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Videogamers0/MGUI/master/assets/samples/Sample_XAML_Designer_Window.gif)
  
# Getting Started:

1. Clone this repo
2. Use Visual Studio 2022 or later (since this project targets .NET 6.0, and makes use of some new-ish C# language features such as record structs (which may be unavailable in c# language version 8.0 or earlier))
3. In your MonoGame project:
   - In the Solution Explorer:
     - Right-click your Solution, *Add* -> *Existing Project*. Browse for `MGUI.Shared.csproj`, and `MGUI.Core.csproj`.
     - Right-click your Project, *Add* -> *Project Reference*. Add references to `MGUI.Shared` and `MGUI.Core`.
     - You may need to:
       - Right-click your game's *Content* folder, *Add* -> *Existing Item*. Browse for `MGUI\MGUI.Shared\Content\MGUI.Shared.Content.mgcb` and `MGUI\MGUI.Core\Content\MGUI.Core.Content.mgcb` and add them both as links (in the file browser dialog, click the dropdown arrow next to the *Add* button and choose *Add as link*). This step will ensure that MGUI's content .xnb files are copied to your project's bin\Content folder. This step might not be necessary.
   - In your Game class:
     - In the Initialize method:
       - Instantiate `MGUI.Shared.Rendering.MainRenderer`
       - Instantiate `MGUI.Core.UI.MGDesktop`
     - Anywhere in your code, instantiate 1 or more `MGWindow` and add them to your `MGDesktop` instance via `MGDesktop.Windows`
     - In the Update method: Call `MGDesktop.Update()`
     - In the Draw method: Call `MGDesktop.Draw()`

# Multi-Platform

MGUI.Core targets `net6.0-windows` by default. If you wish to use MGUI on another OS, open `MGUI\MGUI.Core\MGUI.Core.csproj` and change `<TargetFramework>net6.0-windows</TargetFramework>` to `<TargetFramework>net6.0</TargetFramework>`. Some features have better implementations when targeting `net6.0-windows`, but everything probably™ works fine when targeting `net6.0`. In particular, targeting `net6.0` breaks some intellisense related to `MarkupExtensions` (such as `MGBinding`) when using the Visual Studio Xaml designer (but it still works at runtime, don't ask me why).

# Input Handling

MGUI uses its own framework to detect and respond to inputs.

- `InputTracker`
  - The base-class for input-related logic
  - Uusually only 1 instance per program, automatically created when you create an instance of `MGUI.Shared.Rendering.MainRenderer`
  - Contains 2 child objects: `MouseTracker` and `KeyboardTracker`
- `MouseTracker`
  - Detects changes to the `MouseState` and stores information about those changes in `EventArg` objects, most of which have an `IsHandled` property.
  - Manages 0 to many `MouseHandlers`
  - `MouseHandler`
    - Exposes several events that your code can subscribe to, to react to mouse events. Such as:
      - `Scrolled`, `MovedInside`, `MovedOutside`, `Entered`, `Exited`, `PressedInside`, `PressedOutside`, `ReleasedInside`, `ReleasedOutside`, `DragStart`, `Dragged`, `DragEnd`
    - Prevents the same event from being invoked to several subscribers after one of the subscribers handles it (by setting `IsHandled` to `true`)
- `KeyboardTracker`
  - Just like `MouseTracker` except for managing Keyboard-related inputs.
        
If you'd like to utilize this framework in your own code, get the `MouseTracker` and/or `KeyboardTracker` instance from the `InputTracker`. Call `MouseTracker.CreateHandler(...)`/`KeyboardTracker.CreateHandler(...)`, and subscribe to the events in the returned handler instance.

EX: Creates a MouseHandler instance in Game1.Initialize and subscribes to an event
```c#
public class Game1 : Game, IObservableUpdate, IMouseHandlerHost
{
    private MainRenderer MGUIRenderer { get; set; }
    private MGDesktop Desktop { get; set; }

//  IObservableUpdate implementation
    public event EventHandler<TimeSpan> PreviewUpdate;
    public event EventHandler<EventArgs> EndUpdate;

//  IMouseHandlerHost implementation
    bool IMouseViewport.IsInside(Vector2 Position) => Window.ClientBounds.Contains(Position);
    Vector2 IMouseViewport.GetOffset() => Vector2.Zero;

private MouseHandler MH { get; set; }

protected override void Initialize()
    {
        this.MGUIRenderer = new MainRenderer(new GameRenderHost<Game1>(this));
        this.Desktop = new MGDesktop(MGUIRenderer);

//  Create a MouseHandler
        this.MH = MGUIRenderer.Input.Mouse.CreateHandler(this, null);

//  Subscribe to 1 or more mouse-related events
        MH.MovedInside += (sender, e) =>
        {
            // TODO: Do something in response to the mouse moving
        };

base.Initialize();
    }

protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
    {
        PreviewUpdate?.Invoke(this, gameTime.TotalGameTime);
        Desktop.Update();
        MH.ManualUpdate();
        // TODO: Add your update logic here
        base.Update(gameTime);
        EndUpdate?.Invoke(this, EventArgs.Empty);
    }

// constructor and other functions ommitted for brevity...
}
```

Suppose you want to react to WASD keys to move your player, but you don't want to move the player if the WASD was handled by an `MGTextBox` on the UI:

```c#
public class Game1 : Game, IObservableUpdate, IKeyboardHandlerHost
{
    private GraphicsDeviceManager _graphics;
    private SpriteBatch _spriteBatch;

private MainRenderer MGUIRenderer { get; set; }
    private MGDesktop Desktop { get; set; }

public event EventHandler<TimeSpan> PreviewUpdate;
    public event EventHandler<EventArgs> EndUpdate;

public Game1()
    {
        _graphics = new GraphicsDeviceManager(this);
        Content.RootDirectory = "Content";
        IsMouseVisible = true;
    }

private KeyboardHandler PlayerMovementHandler;

protected override void Initialize()
    {
        _graphics.PreferredBackBufferWidth = 400;
        _graphics.PreferredBackBufferHeight = 300;
        _graphics.ApplyChanges();

this.MGUIRenderer = new(new GameRenderHost<Game1>(this));
        this.Desktop = new(MGUIRenderer);

// Create a simple UI that may need to handle keyboard events
        MGWindow Window1 = new(Desktop, 20, 20, 200, 100);
        Window1.Padding = new(10);
        MGTextBox TextBox = new(Window1);
        Window1.SetContent(TextBox);
        Desktop.Windows.Add(Window1);

//  Create a KeyboardHandler instance that will respond to WASD key presses
        PlayerMovementHandler = MGUIRenderer.Input.Keyboard.CreateHandler(this, null);
        PlayerMovementHandler.Pressed += (sender, e) =>
        {
            if (e.Key is Keys.W or Keys.A or Keys.S or Keys.D)
            {
                //TODO Move the player
                e.SetHandledBy(this, false);
            }
        };

base.Initialize();
    }

protected override void LoadContent()
    {
        _spriteBatch = new SpriteBatch(GraphicsDevice);
    }

protected override void Update(GameTime gameTime)
    {
        PreviewUpdate?.Invoke(this, gameTime.TotalGameTime);

Desktop.Update();

// By updating this handler AFTER we've updated our UI,
        // the handler won't receive events that were already handled by our UI's TextBox
        PlayerMovementHandler.ManualUpdate();

// TODO: Add your update logic here
        base.Update(gameTime);

EndUpdate?.Invoke(this, EventArgs.Empty);
    }

protected override void Draw(GameTime gameTime)
    {
        GraphicsDevice.Clear(Color.CornflowerBlue);
        // TODO: Add your drawing code here
        Desktop.Draw();
        base.Draw(gameTime);
    }
}
```

If you don't want to use MGUI's input framework, then you can just check if the `EventArgs` in `MouseTracker`/`KeyboardTracker` have already been handled before your code attempts to handle them:

```c#
BaseKeyPressedEventArgs W_PressEvent = MGUIRenderer.Input.Keyboard.CurrentKeyPressedEvents[Keys.W];
if (Keyboard.GetState().IsKeyDown(Keys.W) && (W_PressEvent == null || !W_PressEvent.IsHandled))
{
    //TODO do something
}
```
</details>

# DataBinding

MGUI has its own DataBinding engine to allow you to bind UI data to data in your `DataContext`. Set `MGWindow.WindowDataContext` or `MGElement.DataContextOverride`. Then you can use the `MGBinding` markup extension in XAML to configure your bindings.

```xaml
<Window xmlns="clr-namespace:MGUI.Core.UI.XAML;assembly=MGUI.Core"
        SizeToContent="WidthAndHeight" TitleText="DataBindings" Padding="10">
        <TextBlock Text="{MGBinding Path=SomeSampleString, Mode=OneWay}" />
</Window>
```

`{MGBinding Path=SomeSampleString, Mode=OneWay}` creates a `DataBinding` that will automatically set `TextBlock.Text = TextBlock.DataContext.SomeSampleString;`

MGUI's DataBinding engine supports several features such as:
- Binding Modes (`OneTime`, `OneWay`, `OneWayToSource`, `TwoWay`)
- Binding to nested properties (`{MGBinding Path=Foo.Bar}`)
- Binding to specific named elements (`{MGBinding ElementName=SomeNamedCheckBox, Path=IsChecked}`)
- Binding with a `Converter` (`{MGBinding Path=SomeValue, Converter={local:BoolToVisibilityConverter}}`)
- Binding with a `StringFormat` (`{MGBinding Path=SomeFloatValue, StringFormat={}{0:0.0}}`)
- and more. Check the DataBinding window in the Samples project for detailed documentation:

![DataBindings_1](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/9426230/225460788-5002d58a-86c8-44bc-9924-ff8207aa1532.png)

Because MGUI uses its own DataBinding engine, DataBindings will work even on non-Windows platforms. (Though you will need to change `MGUI.Core` to target `net6.0` instead of `net6.0-windows`, and some intellisense won't work in the Visual Studio Xaml designer.)
