Makepad Reference
This category provides reference materials for debugging, code quality, and advanced layout patterns.
When to Use
- You need quick-reference material for common Makepad errors, debugging, or API lookups.
- The task is diagnostic or reference-oriented rather than writing a focused feature in one subsystem.
- You want a central starting point before diving into more specialized Makepad skills.
Quick Navigation
| Topic | File | Use When |
|---|---|---|
| API Documentation | Official docs index, quick API reference | Finding detailed API info |
| Troubleshooting | Common errors and fixes | Build fails, runtime errors |
| Code Quality | Makepad-aware refactoring | Simplifying code safely |
| Adaptive Layout | Desktop/mobile responsive | Cross-platform layouts |
Common Issues Quick Reference
| Error | Quick Fix |
|---|---|
no matching field: font | Use text_style: <THEME_FONT_*>{} |
Color parse error (ends in e) | Change last digit (e.g., #14141e → #14141f) |
set_text missing argument | Add cx as first argument |
| UI not updating | Call redraw(cx) after changes |
| Widget not found | Check ID spelling, use ids!() for paths |
Debug Tips
# Run with line info for better error messages
MAKEPAD=lines cargo +nightly run
// Add logging
log!("Value: {:?}", my_value);
log!("State: {} / {}", self.counter, self.is_loading);
