Customizing Menus

Custom Menus

FXGL uses the factory pattern to deal with menu objects. To provide your own menu implementation, there are two things of note:

1. Create your menu class that extends FXGLMenu
2. Create your factory class that extend SceneFactory

Menu class

See FXGLDefaultMenu for sample code.

public class MyMenu extends FXGLMenu {
    public MyMenu(MenuType type) {
        super(type);

        // code to customize the view of your menu
    }
}

Factory class

public class MySceneFactory extends SceneFactory {

        @Override
        public FXGLMenu newMainMenu() {
            return new MyMenu(MenuType.MAIN_MENU);
        }

        @Override
        public FXGLMenu newGameMenu() {
            return new MyMenu(MenuType.GAME_MENU);
        }
}

Usage of your factory

...
settings.setSceneFactory(new MySceneFactory());
