[0.16.x] set custom gui style

[osldgoth]

are we no longer able to set a custom style for gui?

I have in my code "data.raw["gui-style"].default.foo = {...}"

and the game gives me this error: "error while loading gui-style prototype 'default' (gui-style): Parent style not found: [foo]".

what I find odd though I've looked at another mod which uses the same code: "data.raw["gui-style"].default.bar = {...}", and it works fine. so I don't know.

....Parent style not found: [foo]"..

your style must have a named property= parent

sample

Code: Select all

local default_gui = data.raw["gui-style"].default
default_gui["helmod_textfield"] = {
  type = "textfield_style",
  parent = "textfield_style",
  minimal_width = 70,
  maximal_width = 70
}

The style(s) in question did have a named property 'parent', though was set to an invalid name, ending with "_style". removed the _style and it works now. thanks
