addPreDraw

Description

Adds a custom drawing function to the object's preDrawQueue. Functions in the preDrawQueue are executed before the main drawing functions. This allows users to create custom graphical representations that will be drawn behind the main elements.

Parameters

  1. string Name (ID) - must be unique
  2. function The function to be executed, containing the custom drawing code
  3. number Optional - Position, determines the order or priority of the drawing
  4. boolean Optional - Whether the drawing should be rendered immediately or not, default is true

Returns

  1. object The object in use

Usage

local basalt = require("basalt")

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame()

local function customPreDrawing()
  -- Custom drawing code goes here
end

mainFrame:addPreDraw("uniqueID", customPreDrawing)

In this example, a custom drawing function is added to the main frame's preDrawQueue. The custom drawing code should be placed inside the customPreDrawing function. The drawing is given a unique ID, a position of 1, and rendered immediately.
