hi,

I'm trying to use Nifty GUI for my slick project.

However, when I try to import a font via this XML :
Code:
<text font="res/font/test.ttf"


I get an exception when nifty is parsing the XML

Code:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.newdawn.slick.Font.getWidth(Ljava/lang/String;)I
   at de.lessvoid.nifty.slick2d.render.font.AbstractSlickRenderFont.getWidth(AbstractSlickRenderFont.java:80)

I guess it's trying to use org.newdawn.slick.Font.getWidth, which can't be found apparently
I use a nightly from Slick (not the most recent one), could that be the problem ? Or is it an issue from nifty ?

I'm using nifty-1.3.2.jar and nifty-slick-renderer-1.3.2.jar

I haven't found any similar problems

Thanks

Slick recently switched to using CharSequence for fonts. So your nifty or slick binaries do not match. You probably need to re-build Nifty against the latest Slick version.

Nifty-GUI is compiled with the last maven release of Slick. As long as there is no new release of Slick, this problem will persist.

Hi,

Sorry for digging up an old post but after lots of searching, it was the only one corresponding to the problem I'm having.

I'm currently using the latest version of Slick (downloaded on web site) and Nifty GUI 1.3.2 to make a game.
I'm able to build interfaces with XML without any problem.

But, whenever I try to insert a control/element that use font (i.e. <text></text>...) in my XML file, I receive the exact same error as mentionned by the OP.

I was wondering if the problem was still persisting or if someone had the same problem and found a workaround? If not, should I consider moving to TWL for GUI instead?

Thanks

For using Nifty GUI with Slick you have to use an older Slick build, which you can find here: http://t.co/FUAEPHIU
I got on well that way (so far^^), you only have to take care that some minor things are different. But I haven't registered any major issue yet that would break development.

So... I recently started a project in Slick2D with Nifty for GUI but struck the same problem as the author and are now looking for a GUI API that works well with slick2d.
From what i understand wont Nifty be compatible with slick anymore so what do you ppl recommend instead or should i build my own gui handler?

Just this should solve your problem with Nifty (which is a really flexible and powerful GUI library). Reading is a mighty gift that you should use well, but certainly not too spare.
