Download

All the source code together with examples is available as part of my MowaLibs in GitHub repo: github.com/vorg/MowaLibs

How to use it?

1. Go to GitHub and download the source code
2. Unpack it and copy SimpleGUI to your CINDER_PATH/blocks/ folder
3. Create new project
4. Add references to SimpleGUI folder. In XCode just right click on your project name in Files view and choose Add->Existing files...
5. Now it's time to do a little bit of programming
   

Include header file and add sgui namespace.

include SimpleGUI.h
using namespace mowa::sgui;    
      

Declare pointer to SimpleGUI and some variables you want to control.

SimpleGUI* gui;
float rotation;
int size;
ColorA color;
         

In the setup() function create new SimpleGUI object passing pointer to the main App that will be used for event handling.

gui = new SimpleGUI(this);   

Next step is to add one label and some parameters with min, max and default values.

gui->addLabel("CONTROLS");
gui->addParam("Rotation", &rotation, 0, 360, 0);
gui->addParam("Size", &size, 100, 600, 200);    

SimpleGUI supports olso RGBA color sliders.

gui->addParam("Color", &color, ColorA(0,0.5,1,0.5));

Last step is to draw the gui at the end of your draw() function.

gui->draw();

If you have any doubts there are three examples in the repository that you can use for reference.

Updated:
In the latest example I show how to use buttons and texture previews.
