Actually, it’s more a redesign, but as part of the refactoring process, I also integrated group support to the Entity Explorer. And this led me to this new layout (left:new, right:old):

As you can see, the components of an entity are now listed in the lower table view. The tooltip of the class column shows the whole package name. This way, one can easily see, out of which components an entity consists of. It’s still not a 100% finished yet (e.g. deleting components is missing), but I think you can get the idea where it’s going to!

It’s time for some Level Master 2000 news again! I’ve been busy the last few weeks: filling out forms, such that my thesis suggestion gets accepted, and also thinking about how to clean up the monolithic structure I had on the C++ side. Ok, it’s also there on the ActionScript side, but one after the other…
So now, instead of mainly one class, I got over ten, instead of one Qt-UI file, I got six. Now numbers don’t say much, I can only say, I tried to use some loose coupling per signals and slots, which Qt offers, and split the code into classes on a functional basis…this means e.g. a Entity Explorer class, a Property Browser class, and so on.
Speaking of the Entity Explorer, I also am currently redesigning this. I’ll post a comparison as soon as it’s finished!
Then, it’ll be time for the ActionScript side
