# MLEM.Ui
**MLEM.Ui** is a Ui framework for MonoGame that features elements with automatic positioning and sizing. It contains various ready-made element types like buttons, paragraphs, text fields and more, along with the ability to easily create custom controls. It supports **mouse**, **keyboard**, **gamepad** and **touch** input with little to no additional setup work required.

To see some of what MLEM.Ui can do, you can check out [the demo](https://github.com/Ellpeck/MLEM/blob/main/Demos/UiDemo.cs) as well.

### Text Input
On desktop devices, MonoGame provides the `Window.TextInput` event that gets called automatically with the correct characters for the keys that you're pressing, even for non-American keyboards. However, this function doesn't exist on other devices. Similarly, MonoGame provides the `KeyboardInput` class for showing an on-screen keyboard on mobile devices and consoles, but not on desktop.

However, this function doesn't exist on other devices. Similarly, MonoGame provides the `KeyboardInput` class for showing an on-screen keyboard on mobile devices and consoles, but not on desktop.
To make MLEM compatible with all devices without publishing a separate version for each MonoGame platform, you have to set up the `MlemPlatform` class based on the system you're using MLEM.Ui with. This has to be done *before* initializing your `UiSystem`.
DesktopGL:
DesktopGL and WindowsDX using MonoGame:
```cs
MlemPlatform.Current = new MlemPlatform.DesktopGl<TextInputEventArgs>((w, c) => w.TextInput += c);
```
Desktop using FNA:
```cs
MlemPlatform.Current = new MlemPlatform.DesktopFna(a => TextInputEXT.TextInput += a);
```
Mobile devices and consoles:
```cs
MlemPlatform.Current = new MlemPlatform.Mobile(KeyboardInput.Show, l => this.StartActivity(new Intent(Intent.ActionView, Uri.Parse(l))));
```
If you're not using text input, you can just set the platform to a stub one like so:
If you're not using text input, you can leave the platform uninitialized or just set it to a stub one like so:
```cs
MlemPlatform.Current = new MlemPlatform.None();

Note that, when setting the width and height of any element, there are some things to note:
- Each element has a `SetWidthBasedOnChildren` and a `SetHeightBasedOnChildren` property, which allow them to change their size automatically based on their content
- When specifying a width or height *lower than or equal to 1*, it is seen as a percentage based on the parent's size instead. For example, a paragraph with a width of `0.5F` inside of a panel width a width of `200` will be `100` units wide.
- When specifying a width *lower than 0*, it is seen as a percentage based on the element's height, and vice versa. For example, a panel with a width of `200` and a height of `-2` will be `400` units tall.
