Disabling controls

[thomasgeissl]

Is it posible to disable controls?
I would like to make sliders and buttons/toggles just show values, but disable editing.

I just saw ofxBaseGui::registerMouseEvents() and ofxBaseGui::unregisterMouseEvents().
And I tried rotary.unregisterMouseEvents() in exampleControls, but it did not work. I will have a closer look tomorrow.

This is an ofxGui issue: http://forum.openframeworks.cc/t/ofxgui-disable-widgets/20304

I do not know what is the easiest way to implement this, without having to modify all classes.
I would add a member bool enabled, getter and setter to ofxBaseGui. In ofxBaseGui::mouseReleased and ofxBaseGui::mousePressed check if it is enabled and then call the actual handler.

We are working on some fundamental changes - see this PR openframeworks/openFrameworks#4150 I am trying to adapt this addon to the new strategy and there are some things we still need to figure out, this may take some time. I will keep this request in mind, it should not be too hard, as you said.

Nice, it looks promising.
Let me know if I can do some testing or help somehow.

I will, thanks!
