So any changes made there will appear in the main menu Options as well. So in-game-specific sound functionality needs to be added to the `GameOptionsSoundMenu`, not the `SoundOptions`. Resource usage in terms of panel count is not much of a concern, any non-trivial UI layout can easily consist of a lot of deeply nested boxes. Top Quote

I tried to reuse implementation practices from SoundOptions. This compiles and runs without errors, but the problem is now I don't understand why those dummy controls are not showing up in the sound options window below the sound options panel (which do show up)? Here's the work in progress code: https://github.com/andersand/widelands/commit/1c5a51bca2046d23262ea60b19c29ba5404a73a1 I haven't figured out how to debug the code without resorting to writing to the log yet. I assume it would be helpful to be able to set breakpoints to figure things out faster. Any advice how to do that could be helpful PS. Note that I plan to revert -Werror in CMakeLists.txt before I make a PR. I just removed it temporarily to be able to compile stubbed code. Top Quote

Also you'll want to use the `UI::Box::Resizing::kFullSize` argument to `add()`. This should probably also make `max_w` and `set_checkbox_width` superfluous. For debugging I recommend `gdb`: gdb ./widelands b filename.cc:123 # To set a breakpoint in a line b SomeFunction # To set a breakpoint in a function run # Start the program ... # Breakpoint hit p VAR # (or "print") Print value of variable VAR. This can also be used to evaluate an expression and invoke functions and change variables, e.g. "print g_verbose=true" or "print do_something()" n # (or "next") Step to the next line step # Step into the function at the next line bt # Backtrace of the current call stack c # (or "continue") Continue execution d # Delete breakpoints q # (or "quit") Quit GDB Edited: 2024-11-16, 08:06 Top Quote

I tried adding it with `add(&enable_, UI::Box::Resizing::kFullSize, UI::Align::kRight);` but also without any parameters and with `UI::Box::Resizing::kAlign`. I also edited `GameOptionsSoundMenu` constructor so `UI::Box::Resizing::kFullSize` is passed to `add()` for both `sound_options_` and `music_player_`. It's as if the music player panel is empty or not rendered for some reason. Edit: My mistake, I removed the code to add(control) when removing the max_w and checkbox_width. It works now, with the changes you proposed. Thanks! Edited: 2024-11-16, 09:46 Top Quote

As you can see the user interface work is mostly done, though I plan to make some more nested panels to improve the playlist padding, and standard panel background for the buttons, stuff like that. Currently the sound handler event stuff does not work with stop/resume music so I may end up just removing that button. I think that one won't be much use anyway since you can already just toggle music on/off next to the music volume. In the supporting code (in `struct Songset`), next I plan to converge the existing `vector<string> songs_` to the newly introduced `map<string, Song> playlist_` Any feedback on this is welcomed.
