Widget help

[Zompies 20]

Can someone please explain how to use widgets because i'm having trouble with this. I have

WidgetChild cookInterface = getWidgets().getWidgetChild(317, 2); 

Something along those lines and i have in if statement.

if(cookInterface.isVisible){cookInterface.interact("Cook all");} 

But I get a null pointer exception. I am not sure how to detect if the widget is on the screen can someone please help?

The problem is most likely that you're trying to check if the widget is visible before it is open.. thus making cookInterface null.

You should have two widgets to avoid null exception. Just my thoughts..

if (cookInterface != null && cookInterface.isVisible())

try checking that the parent node isnt null first?....  

if(getWidgets().get(317)!=null)

     WidgetChild cookInterface = getWidgets().getWidgetChild(317, 2);

How did you find the 317 and 2 numbers? I am having a horrible time figuring out how to work with widgets. (I actually want to check for the cooking interface, as well).

Use our widget hover debugger (Tools -> Debug -> Widget Hover or something like that)
