(-1 being any player and any dialogcontrol, 0 being eventtype clicked)
or any variation, the trigger that I use does not respond in the least. This event responds supposedly to any DialogControl, and it should respond to any DialogControl being clicked.
UIDisplayMessage(PlayerGroupSingle(owner),5,StringToText("You pressed some dialog control"));
is the only thing inside the trigger and it should show me a message that I pressed a button. This does not happen, but I also get no syntax errors.
Another note, the commented script below also works, I just tried a different method of creating the button which works the same way except adds a tooltip.
//DialogControlCreate(DialogLastCreated(), 3); libNtve_gf_CreateDialogItemButton(DialogLastCreated(),165,45,3,25,-135,StringToText("Strength"),(StringToText("STR ")+IntToText(HeroSTR[owner])),null);// CREATE THE BUTTON//DialogControlSetSize(DialogControlLastCreated(), PlayerGroupSingle(owner), 165, 45); // SET BUTTON SIZE//DialogControlSetPosition(DialogControlLastCreated(), PlayerGroupSingle(owner), 3, 25, -135); // SET BUTTON X/Y (lEFT/RIGHT UP/DOWN OFFSET, in pixels, automatically anchors to the middle left?)//DialogControlSetPropertyAsText(DialogControlLastCreated(), 1, PlayerGroupSingle(owner), (StringToText("STR ") + IntToText(HeroSTR[owner]))); // SET BUTTON TEXTDialogControlSetEnabled(DialogControlLastCreated(),PlayerGroupSingle(owner),true);DialogControlSetVisible(DialogControlLastCreated(),PlayerGroupSingle(owner),true);DialogControlSetPropertyAsBool(DialogControlLastCreated(),36,PlayerGroupSingle(owner),true);//libNtve_gf_SetDialogItemClickOnDown (DialogControlLastCreated(), PlayerGroupSingle(owner), true);HeroControl[owner][0]=DialogControlLastCreated();

I managed to locate all of those errors a while ago and fix them, the only issue now is making the data editor do what I want it to. Thank you all for your help and tips, I learned alot. Expect to see a map from me sometime in the future.
So I'm still getting errors on the native variables I use in this.
c_timeGame
c_playerAny gives me errors too
c_abilEffectStageFinish also
Am I initializing native libs wrong or what? I've tried alot of different things, it's giving me the same error and I'm almost 100% sure it's because the natives aren't being used properly.

I think I figured out what's wrong, but no idea how to fix it. I commented out the entire unitgroup loop and found that the Wait code was giving me an error for wrong variable. c_timeGame and c_playerAny are what are giving me errors. Why are natives giving me errors? lol
Awesome, thank you very much for your replies! I've learned alot just from the few posts you've made!
Ok so I removed the bracket, I moved the bracket to make the angle actually calculate, fixed the polar offsets, removed the else. For some reason the unit filter is still giving me errors.
while((distance<range)){// while loop, will set the offset of the blast, get units near the blast put them in a unit group// creates an effect at the blast offset, pick each unit in the unit group and push them away at the angle of the blast// will repeat every 0.15 secblastoffset=PointWithOffsetPolar(blast,1.0,casterangle);blast=PointWithOffsetPolar(blast,1.0,casterangle);PlayerCreateEffectPoint(1,"KamehamehaDummyBlast",blast);UnitGroupLoopBegin(UnitGroup(null,c_playerAny,RegionCircle(blast,1.3),UnitFilter(0,0,(1<<c_targetFilterAlly),(1<<(c_targetFilterDead-32));// loop begins;while(!UnitGroupLoopDone())// picks all units in moved, then moves them, hopefully ends the loop;{libNtve_gf_PauseUnit(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),true);Wait(0.05,c_timeGame);blastangle=AngleBetweenPoints(blast,UnitGetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent()));UnitSetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),PointWithOffsetPolar(UnitGetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent()),0.2,blastangle)true);Wait(0.05,c_timeGame);libNtve_gf_PauseUnit(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),false);UnitGroupLoopStep();}UnitGroupLoopEnd();distance=(distance+1)Wait(0.15,c_timeGame);}
The variables I used were called at the top of the trigger like so
point blast;
fixed angle;
etc.
I'll check the bracket and the parenthesis
Ok so when I did that, it then gave me invalid parameter and too many parameters errors.
The only thing I can think of is there is something wrong with my trigger initializations and such, because I don't quite understand that process yet. Here is the whole script.

@unclesatan: Go You cannot declare a variable in a parameter, like you do with:
RegionCircle(pointblast,1.3)
That was simply the result of me mussing with the code trying to get it to work. Whether or not it is point blast, or simply blast (the variable I already declared at the top of the script with the rest of them), it still gives me invalid parameter list. Sorry for the confusion there. I updated my code
I do now realize that I was attempting to declare a variable there, but like I said it did not change the error message for some reason.
I'm new to this community, used to script in WC3 but never truly finished anything. I'd like to take my ideas and put them into Starcraft, or at least just get back into scripting. So far, the only thing hindering me is the massively confusing data editor haha..
My problem is when I try and use
UnitGroupLoopBegin
This gives me incorrect parameter error.
I converted some GUI for the UnitGroupLoopBegin and all the parameters, the only thing I changed was
the point (blast) which was called and used multiple times before in the trigger. Also tried modifying the script in various manners and just can't get it to work right.
What I'm attempting is to pick all units in the region and use a trigger to move them at an angle away from
the blast until they're out of the radius, in case that helps. The script is down below.
All variables are called already
UnitGroupLoopBegin(UnitGroup(null,c_playerAny,RegionCircle(blast,1.3),UnitFilter(0,0,(1<<c_targetFilterPlayer)|(1<<c_targetFilterAlly),0));{// loop begins;while(!UnitGroupLoopDone())// picks all units in moved, then moves them, hopefully ends the loop;{libNtve_gf_PauseUnit(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),true);Wait(0.05,c_timeGame);blastangle=AngleBetweenPoints(blast),UnitGetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent()));UnitSetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),PointWithOffsetPolar(UnitGetPosition(UnitGroupLoopCurrent())),0.2,blastangle,true);Wait(0.05,c_timeGame);libNtve_gf_PauseUnit(UnitGroupLoopCurrent(),false);UnitGroupLoopStep();}

So I created a dialog control, it's type is button. They show up fine, they can be clicked on and they act like buttons, etc. etc.
I actually created them 2 different ways, shown above. Both of them act in the exact same manner.
My problem is that when I click on them, I need to be able to distribute a point (attributes) to the stat button that is clicked on.
However, I use the event below
(-1 being any player and any dialogcontrol, 0 being eventtype clicked) or any variation, the trigger that I use does not respond in the least. This event responds supposedly to any DialogControl, and it should respond to any DialogControl being clicked.
is the only thing inside the trigger and it should show me a message that I pressed a button. This does not happen, but I also get no syntax errors.
Another note, the commented script below also works, I just tried a different method of creating the button which works the same way except adds a tooltip.

Take the picture down or change the link, I kept clicking on that picture cause it looked right and it took me to a broken link XD

I would love to see this done, but I unfortunately have only time to produce my current map and I must stay focused, my apologies.
Keep in mind though that this would be a super popular map, be prepared :)

Edit: Fixed the error, got Notepad and noticed I was missing a bracket and return true; at the end of the function. Thanks for looking everyone

So I made this trigger that, as far as I can see, is practically a replica of what the Galaxy editor would give me for GUI. It's giving me errors.
This should technically work. I've initialized the trigger here
So it gives me an invalid variable name or cannot parse function line. What could possibly be making this go haywire?
