Setting folder thumb processing from skin UI
Posted: 25 Mar 22, 12:50

In Atom, if the user selects Separate folder section, I use the folder thumbs. Otherwise, the folder thumbnails are treated like regular thumbnails. I'm currently making the switch in init.bsh, but I'd rather be doing it from the skin's UI. I've tried the obvious approach:

new StateMonitor() {
	public void onChange() {
		engine.setProcessFolderThumbs(folderSection.isSelected());
		window.engine2UI();
	}
}.add(folderSection).done();

This doesn't crash or produce any error message, but it doesn't work, either, and it freezes the checkbox in the skin's UI.

Is there some other way of pulling this off?

Correct

Your onChange callback needs to look like this:

window.ui2Engine();
engine.setProcessFolderThumbs(folderSection.isSelected());
window.engine2UI();

That's because the just-occurred selection of the folderSection checkbox will be reverted by the engine2UI() call if it hasn't been preceded by a ui2Engine call that copies the new checked state of that checkbox to the "model" (i.e. "engine")

Oh, that works "real good." Does exactly what I want.

ETA: Take the weekend off.
