Class Skin

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    Disposable
    public class Skin
extends java.lang.Object
implements Disposable
    A skin stores resources for UI widgets to use (texture regions, ninepatches, fonts, colors, etc). Resources are named and can be looked up by name and type. Resources can be described in JSON. Skin provides useful conversions, such as allowing access to regions in the atlas as ninepatches, sprites, drawables, etc. The get* methods return an instance of the object in the skin. The new* methods return a copy of an instance in the skin.

    See the documentation for more.

    • Constructor Detail

      • Skin

        public Skin()
        Creates an empty skin.

      • Skin

        public Skin​(FileHandle skinFile)
        Creates a skin containing the resources in the specified skin JSON file. If a file in the same directory with a ".atlas" extension exists, it is loaded as a TextureAtlas and the texture regions added to the skin. The atlas is automatically disposed when the skin is disposed.

      • Skin

        public Skin​(FileHandle skinFile,
            TextureAtlas atlas)
        Creates a skin containing the resources in the specified skin JSON file and the texture regions from the specified atlas. The atlas is automatically disposed when the skin is disposed.

      • Skin

        public Skin​(TextureAtlas atlas)
        Creates a skin containing the texture regions from the specified atlas. The atlas is automatically disposed when the skin is disposed.

      • addRegions

        public void addRegions​(TextureAtlas atlas)
        Adds all named texture regions from the atlas. The atlas will not be automatically disposed when the skin is disposed.

        @Null
public <T> T optional​(java.lang.String name,
                      java.lang.Class<T> type)

        public BitmapFont getFont​(java.lang.String name)

      • getRegion

        public TextureRegion getRegion​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a registered texture region. If no region is found but a texture exists with the name, a region is created from the texture and stored in the skin.

      • getRegions

        @Null
public Array<TextureRegion> getRegions​(java.lang.String regionName)
        Returns:
        an array with the TextureRegion that have an index != -1, or null if none are found.

      • getTiledDrawable

        public TiledDrawable getTiledDrawable​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a registered tiled drawable. If no tiled drawable is found but a region exists with the name, a tiled drawable is created from the region and stored in the skin.

      • getPatch

        public NinePatch getPatch​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a registered ninepatch. If no ninepatch is found but a region exists with the name, a ninepatch is created from the region and stored in the skin. If the region is an TextureAtlas.AtlasRegion then its split TextureAtlas.AtlasRegion.values are used, otherwise the ninepatch will have the region as the center patch.

      • getSprite

        public Sprite getSprite​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a registered sprite. If no sprite is found but a region exists with the name, a sprite is created from the region and stored in the skin. If the region is an TextureAtlas.AtlasRegion then an TextureAtlas.AtlasSprite is used if the region has been whitespace stripped or packed rotated 90 degrees.

      • getDrawable

        public Drawable getDrawable​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a registered drawable. If no drawable is found but a region, ninepatch, or sprite exists with the name, then the appropriate drawable is created and stored in the skin.

      • find

        @Null
public java.lang.String find​(java.lang.Object resource)
        Returns the name of the specified style object, or null if it is not in the skin. This compares potentially every style object in the skin of the same type as the specified style, which may be a somewhat expensive operation.

      • newDrawable

        public Drawable newDrawable​(java.lang.String name)
        Returns a copy of a drawable found in the skin via getDrawable(String).

      • newDrawable

        public Drawable newDrawable​(java.lang.String name,
                            float r,
                            float g,
                            float b,
                            float a)
        Returns a tinted copy of a drawable found in the skin via getDrawable(String).

      • newDrawable

        public Drawable newDrawable​(java.lang.String name,
                            Color tint)
        Returns a tinted copy of a drawable found in the skin via getDrawable(String).

      • newDrawable

        public Drawable newDrawable​(Drawable drawable)
        Returns a copy of the specified drawable.

      • newDrawable

        public Drawable newDrawable​(Drawable drawable,
                            float r,
                            float g,
                            float b,
                            float a)
        Returns a tinted copy of a drawable found in the skin via getDrawable(String).

      • setScale

        public void setScale​(float scale)
        The scale used to size drawables created by this skin.

        This can be useful when scaling an entire UI (eg with a stage's viewport) then using an atlas with images whose resolution matches the UI scale. The skin can then be scaled the opposite amount so that the larger or smaller images are drawn at the original size. For example, if the UI is scaled 2x, the atlas would have images that are twice the size, then the skin's scale would be set to 0.5.

      • setEnabled

        public void setEnabled​(Actor actor,
                       boolean enabled)
        Sets the style on the actor to disabled or enabled. This is done by appending "-disabled" to the style name when enabled is false, and removing "-disabled" from the style name when enabled is true. A method named "getStyle" is called the actor via reflection and the name of that style is found in the skin. If the actor doesn't have a "getStyle" method or the style was not found in the skin, no exception is thrown and the actor is left unchanged.

      • getJsonLoader

        protected Json getJsonLoader​(FileHandle skinFile)

      • getJsonClassTags

        public ObjectMap<java.lang.String,​java.lang.Class> getJsonClassTags()
        Returns a map of class tags that will be used when loading skin JSON. The map can be modified before calling load(FileHandle). By default the map is populated with the simple class names of libGDX classes commonly used in skins.
