Add quantity to choose-elem-button

[Hermios]

Hi guys
Thanks a lot for the new version, still in test
So now, a new suggestion:
In choose-elem-button, give the possibility to add constant quantity rather than an element.
Would be great!
Many thanks

Did you find an alternative to do this?

Bumping for interest to have a quantity selector in addition to the filter on the "choose-elem-button" element.

+1 Would be very useful!

+1. However, I'd like to be able to make the quantity selector optional. (Use case: Currently working on GUIs for Autodrive where players should be able to set preferred fuel/ammo items for a vehicle, but shouldn't be able to set the quantity unless the vehicle grid contains a certain equipment.)

By the way, the original request is for the "or choose a constant" selector you see when setting circuit conditions, not for specifying quantity.

Yeah, that's whay my +1 is for

+1, in the past i have ran into this limitation on occasion, it would be nice if lua was able to call forth that gui.

+1. Also, the new choose-elem-button should show its constant number.

Currently, the value/number fields do not apply to the choose-elem-button.
A workaround is to fake it using a rich-text button:

Code: Select all

gui_element.add{
  name = "test_button",
  type = "button",
  style = "slot_button_in_shallow_frame",
  caption = "[color=white][font=scenario-message-dialog]1.0k[/font][/color]"
}

(Note: the font colour is incorrect on hover.)
