Re: Input Devices window crashing on the 'next' branch?

Because of rendering changes on next, several of the dialog boxes are very, very broken. I haven't seen this issue with the Input Devices menu (at least not on the screen, might be in the console logs), but that dialog has not worked for me lately either. If you'd like to take a crack at making it work in next (people have been doing this for other dialogs as well), I'm sure that would be appreciated, otherwise there isn't much you can do.

Subject: [Flightgear-devel] Input Devices window crashing on the 'next' branch?

Hi all,

I'm trying to run the 'next' branch, but even with a clean ~/.fgfs
opening the Input Devices window just opens up a tiny thing in the
middle of the screen, and it prints this error:

    77.53 [ALRT]:nasal      Nasal runtime error: No member 'items' on
type 'nil'
    77.53 [ALRT]:nasal        at

line 992

(I've actually improved the error message a bit, previously it just
mentioned "No such member: items'")

  This is the code:

     # @description Return a vector containing all items of this list
     # @return vector[canvas.gui.widgets.ListItem] Vector containing all
items of this list
     getItems: func() {
         return me._scrollLayout.items();
     },

No immediate problems jump out, _scrollLayout seems to be created in the
constructor. I do see some recent changes related to input devices in
the git log though.

Is this a known problem? Using FlightGear without a joystick/pedals is
not going to be fun.

Regards,

Gerard
