New:

• OF 0.10.1 support
• Only uses ofParameter now. The easiest usage is to create ofParameterGroups for a set of ofParameters and then add the group to the control panel. You can also add individual parameters as well
• Added a color picker
• Added an example which you should be able to run from the addons/ofxControlPanel/example folder showing how the parameter stuff works.
• Lock panel, now shows an overlay to make it clear its locked.

Features:

• ofBaseDraws display area ( for showing video / images / FBOs etc )
• video player with controls
• multiple tabbed panels
• color picker
• sliders of course!
• multi toggle
• drop down selection
• file lister
• file loader
• labels and variable listers ( for just displaying values )
• range slider
• 2D slider
• chart plotter
• text input
• status bar for showing messages
• guiTypeCustom for implementing your own gui item for both drawing, mouse input and save/load to xml

Quick example:

    //ofApp.h 
    ofxControlPanel gui; 
    ofVideoGrabber vid; 

    ofParameterGroup cvControls; //this will be in your header file 
    ofParameter <bool> bInvert; 
    ofParameter <float> threshold; 
    
    //ofApp.cpp 
    //In ofApp::setup()
    gui.setup("my gui"); 
  
    //add a video to the panel   
    gui.addDrawableRect("video feed", &vid, 320, 240); 
    
    cvControls.setName("cv controls");
    cvControls.add(bInvert.set("invert", false));
    cvControls.add(threshold.set("threshold", 29.0, 1.0, 255.0));
        
    //now add the param group to the gui 
    gui.add( cvControls ); 
    
    gui.loadSettings("settings.xml"); 
    
    //In ofApp::update(){
    gui.update(); 
    
    //In ofApp::draw(){
    gui.draw();
