DrawRect() not working in GuiScreen

[ScarabCoder]

I'm trying to use the draw methods, but none of them seem to work. Nothing appears in the GUI besides what I already put there (buttons, text field, etc).

Do I need to put it in a special method?

Not really possible unless you mess with GL states.

 

Post your GuiScreen code and all other relevant classes.

My Gui class (contains my own API stuff):

package com.scarabcoder.ereijan.gui;

import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;

import org.lwjgl.opengl.GL11;

import com.mojang.realmsclient.gui.ChatFormatting;
import com.scarabcoder.ereijan.Main;
import com.scarabcoder.ereijan.ScarabUtil.MPlayer;

import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiButton;
import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiScreen;
import net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiTextField;

public class GUIMineBook extends GuiScreen{

private GuiTextField text;


MPlayer player;

List<MPlayer> friends;

List<MPlayer> friendRE;

List<MPlayer> friendRS;

public GUIMineBook(){
	initVars();
}

public void initGui()
    {
        this.text = new GuiTextField(1, this.fontRendererObj, this.width / 3, 25, this.width / 3 - 26, 20);
        text.setMaxStringLength(200);
        this.text.setFocused(false);
        this.buttonList.add(new GuiButton(1, this.width / 3 * 2 - 20, 25, 20, 20, ">"));
        this.buttonList.add(new GuiButton(2, this.width - (this.width / 6), 0, this.width / 6, 20, "Refresh"));
        this.buttonList.add(new GuiButton(3, 0, 0, this.width / 6, 20, "Back to Game"));
	this.drawRect(5, 5, 20, 20, 0xFFFFFF);
    }

    public void updateScreen()
    {
        super.updateScreen();
        this.text.updateCursorCounter();
    }

public void initVars(){
	this.player = Main.getMPlayer();

	this.friends = player.getFriends();

	this.friendRE = player.getFriendRequestManager().getFriendRequests();

	this.friendRS = player.getFriendRequestManager().getSentFriendRequests();

}



@Override
    public void drawScreen(int mouseX, int mouseY, float partialTicks){

	this.drawBackground(0);
	this.text.drawTextBox();
	this.drawCenteredString(fontRendererObj, ChatFormatting.BOLD + "MINEBOOK", this.width / 2, 10, 0x32CD32);
	this.drawCenteredString(fontRendererObj, "FRIEND REQUESTS", this.width / 7, 30, 0xFFFFFF);
	this.drawCenteredString(fontRendererObj, "FRIENDS", this.width - (this.width / 7), 30, 0xFFFFFF);
	this.drawHorizontalLine(0, this.width, 65, 0x111);

	super.drawScreen(mouseX, mouseY, partialTicks);
}


    protected void mouseClicked(int x, int y, int btn) {
        try {
		super.mouseClicked(x, y, btn);
	} catch (IOException e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated catch block
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
        this.text.mouseClicked(x, y, btn);
    }
    protected void keyTyped(char par1, int par2)
    {
        try {
		super.keyTyped(par1, par2);
	} catch (IOException e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated catch block
		e.printStackTrace();
	}
        this.text.textboxKeyTyped(par1, par2);
    }
}

Nothing you're doing in drawScreen is visible because you're calling super.drawScreen() after drawing.  super() is coming along and drawing on top of it, hiding it.

[ScarabCoder]

I tried moving super.drawScreen to be executed before I drawRect(), but it didn't work. Can you give me an example?

[Ernio]

Umm... wait a second.

 

Why are you calling drawRect from initGui()? That method is called once on opening gui.

 

You need to draw stuff in drawScreen. And super-drawScreen should be at end (depends).

[ScarabCoder]

Sorry, I put it in initGui() temporarily when trying it in different methods.

 

I put super.drawScreen() at the end of the method, but Draco18s says doing that will just draw the background over it.

[Draco18s]

I may be wrong, that was what I thought was happening from an initial examination.  I haven't messed with guicode in a while.

ScreenGui#drawScreen

draws all the buttons and labels. If you use those you would probably want to call it last, to prevent them from being behind background objects.

[ScarabCoder]

Bump.

 

drawRect is still not working. I've looked everywhere, no one knows why. It's not being drawn behind anything either.

[ScarabCoder]

Oh my GOODNESS. Thank you so much! Didn't know it needed an alpha.
