*See: [[Talk:Rcomage#objattribdef-ps3.ini]]
See the "paf" [[VSH Exports]], [https://www.psx-place.com/threads/custom-xai_plugin-source.12455/page-3#post-356203 psx-place talk], and [https://github.com/TheRouletteBoi/VirtualShell/blob/main/include/vsh/paf.hpp paf.hpp]
At the time of documenting the RCO format for wiki it was posible to identify some/lot of unknown attributes, in the link there are a few of them listed as dirty notes (later was identifyed some more that are not included in the link). At this point there is no need for that dirty notes because the new names of the identifyed attributes was used in the tables in wiki, the dirty notes are just kept to have a record of the changes, and liked here because are very related with this page
 
The goal of this table is to replace the unnoficial rcomage names by the official codenames. The official codenames are used in the VSH export functions (in text format) but inside the RCO internal file structure this names in text format doesnt exists, instead of text strings the RCO structure only stores the ID in hexadecimal format based on the [[Template:RCO TOC entry types|RCO TOC entry types]]<br>
Rcomage uses a file named tagmap.ini intended to convert the ID (hex) value by the name (text string) when is extracting the RCO contents, and back from text to hex when compiling an RCO
 
A bit of background story... rcomage was made by zinga burga for PSP, at that time he had to figure the names by looking at other related text strings, he used the exact codename only in few of them, and he invented other unnofficial names based on educated guesses, but there are many innacurate names and a few unknowns<br>
At the initial steps of rcomage development zinga burga realized that it was posible to extract the info inside the RCO structure as an XML format (this is something sony made on purpose), but inside the RCO files there is not any XML. This is when zinga burga coined the term "RCOXML Objects" because rcomage is representing the RCO contents in XML format (and this wiki respected the term), but in the names of the VSH export function are named '''WidgetType''', in other words, we could say the table below is a list of '''Widgets''' ordered by his '''Type'''<br>
At some point kakaroto and geohot updated rcomage source code to add support for PS3 (they had to change the endianess and added definitions for a few RCOXML objects only supported by PS3 that was breaking the output) but maybe there are new objects specific for PS3 over ID 0x081F. Anyway, so far rcomage supports up to ID 0x081F (32 objects)
 
*Notes
**It seems the items ('''XItem''' 0x080C, '''MItem''' 0x080A, '''LItem''' 0x0814, '''IItem''' 0x0818) doesnt have VSH exports because are terminal objects located at bottom of the hierarchy (are always the children of a parent "list")
**The codename "Prim" seems to be inherited from PSX->PSP->PS3 and seems to be a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_primitive geometric primitive]. In the PSX XMB the options availables for it was: type="rect", type="line", type="outline". It seems to be used to draw lines, frames, etc...

=WidgetType=
See the "paf" [[VSH Exports]] and [https://github.com/TheRouletteBoi/VirtualShell/blob/main/include/vsh/paf.hpp paf.hpp]
 
It seems the '''Widget''' is an identifyer of what rcomage and this wiki page baptished unnofficially as "objects", of all them or only a group
 
By looking at the internal RCO structure is obvious that the value used internally to identify every "object" is the first field of what we has been naming [[Template:RCO TOC entry common area]], or in other words, the [[Template:RCO TOC entry types]]
 
So the question is... all "RCO TOC entry types" should be considered WidgetType ? (and consequentlly needed to be renamed in wiki pages)... or only a group of them are considered "widgets" ? and there is other group (no idea wich one by now, but [[RCOXML Animations]] could have a different name)
 
By looking [https://gist.github.com/anonymous/331c41b7b60af35c62363700ad88e6b3 at this list] is posible to make a list of the exports that uses the keyword "WidgetType" and deduce the correspondency with the names we have been using in rcomage/wiki. Some of the "unnofficial" names we have been using matches exactlly, others partially, and there are a few "new" names hard to deduce to wich "object" corresponds, and probably are included the 2 infamous '''ObjUnknown0xB''' and '''ObjUnknown0x1B''' that are completlly unknown for rcomage and doesnt seems to be used in any of the official PSP and PS3 firmwares

*Spins confussion
**The object 0x0811 (named "ItemSpin" in RCOmage) is officially codenamed "PhNumSpin" (the name was swapped), but the object 0x080F (named "Spin" in RCOmage) has not been identifyed yet, probably is officially codenamed "PhItemSpin". Additionally there is another codename for '''PhSpin''' that is a bit confusing by now. Is not clear yet if there are 2 or 3 spin objects
**The object named '''Spin''' by rcomage has been found in official firmware using event names with the word "ispin" (a short form of "ItemSpin"):
***object2:lftv_page212_group000_'''ispin'''000 <--- this is loading another "object" so the name '''ispin''' belongs to the other object
***object2:lftv_page212_group000_'''ispin'''001 <--- this is loading another "object" so the name '''ispin''' belongs to the other object
**In the VSH exports page there are 3 exports that returns names related with spins (but one of the returned strings seems to be wrong)
***const char* paf_4C36ABBB() <-- returns "PhItemSpin" (_ZN3paf10PhItemSpin10WidgetTypeEv)
***const char* paf_CA9160F6() <-- returns "PhNumSpin" (_ZNK3paf9PhNumSpin13GetWidgetTypeEv)

==Menu lists and menu items associations==
There are 6 groups of list/item associated with each other that was given consecutive IDs in hexadecimal. The fact that was given consecutive IDs means each group of list/item was implemented at the same time because requires each other (an "item" requires a parent "list", and a "list" without children "items" doesnt makes sense)
 
*The "items" '''doesnt''' have the 21 [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]], '''only''' have 3 specific attributes (usually a ref/text/image). This is an easy way to identify them, by the abscense of the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]]
 
*The "lists" '''does''' have the 21 [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]], followed by a variable number of specific attributes. All the lists (except 0x0804 and 0x0806) seems to use specific override attributes intended to adjust them dinamically for the different screen resolutions supported by PS3, see: [[XMB Layouts]].
 
*The consecutive ID's is a handy way to identify them, it means there is an "item" ID next to each "list" ID (or the other way around, there is a "list" ID next to each "item" ID)

*Other unnofficial "object" names that are not in the table above:
==ItemsCount or ItemNum attribute from list objects==
**General
The first specific attribute of the list objects (in other words, the attribute in position 22, located inmediatly after the 21 [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]]) indicates how many chidren there are in the list. In RCOmage this attribute is named "ItemsCount" but it seems the codename is "ItemNum", this VSH exports are used to change the value dinamically to hide/show the items from a list:
***type=0x00 '''ObjectTree'''
 
**Items (it seems the items doesnt have VSH exports, because are terminal objects located at bottom of the hierarchy)
*<strike>paf::Ph'''XmBar'''::SetItemNum(int)</strike> not mentioned in [[VSH Exports#paf|VSH Exports]] page
***type=0x0C '''XItem'''
*paf::Ph'''XmList'''::SetItemNum(int)
***type=0x0A '''MItem'''
**paf::Ph'''XmList'''::Redraw(int)
***type=0x14 '''LItem'''
*<strike>paf::Ph'''MenuList'''::SetItemNum(int)</strike> not mentioned in [[VSH Exports#paf|VSH Exports]] page
***type=0x18 '''IItem'''
*paf::Ph'''List'''::SetItemNum(int)
**Others
**paf::Ph'''List'''::Redraw(void)
***type=0x19 '''Icon''' (terminal object, same specific attributes than "items"). The difference with standard "items" is "icon" have standard attributes (and standard items doesnt)
*paf::Ph'''InfoList'''::SetItemNum(int)
***type=0x10 '''Action''' (terminal object, special purpose)
**<strike>paf::Ph'''InfoList'''::Redraw(void)</strike> not mentioned in [[VSH Exports#paf|VSH Exports]] page
***type=0x0E '''ModelObject''' (terminal object, special purpose)
*<strike>paf::Ph'''CheckBoxList'''::SetItemNum(int)</strike> not mentioned in [[VSH Exports#paf|VSH Exports]] page
***type=0x1A '''UButton''' (very similar than '''Button''', is weird there is not any documented VSH export matching with this object)
 
**Unknowns
=Objects with additional override attributes=
***type=0x0B '''ObjUnknown0xB'''
The override attributes are intended to adjust the position and size of the objects dinamically for the different screen resolutions supported by PS3, see: [[XMB Layouts]]<br>
***type=0x1B '''ObjUnknown0x1B'''
Most of the objects definitions starts with the 21 [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] that includes 6 overrides (''positionOverrideX, positionOverrideY, positionOverrideZ, sizeOverrideX, sizeOverrideY, sizeOverrideZ'')<br>
But there are a few objects with additional overrides, all this additional overrides (different than 6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]]) are unknown, seems to be related with font sizes, linespaces or stuff that requires an individual visual adjustment
 
*List objects
**'''MenuList''' 0x0809 and '''CheckboxList''' 0x081C
***6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] + 3 specific override atributes (override something size XYZ ?)
**'''List''' 0x0813
***6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] + 2 specific override atributes (override something size XY ?)
**'''InfoList''' 0x0817
***6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] + 1 specific override atribute (override something size X ?)
 
*Text objects
**'''Text''' 0x080D and '''LabelText''' 0x081F
***6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] + 3 specific override atributes (override something size XYZ ?)
 
*Other objects
**'''LevelMeter''' 0x081E
***6 overrides from the [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]] + 1 specific override atribute (override something size X ?)
 
=ObjUnknown0xB=
The object named ObjUnknown0xB by RCOmage (ID 0x80B) seems to be a list (the parent of ID 0x80C). If this speculation is true it means it should start with the 21 [[Template:RCO_TOC_Objects_standard_attributes|standard attributes]], the attribute number 22 should indicate how many children it have (attribute name "ItemsCount" in RCOmage, or "ItemNum" in official code), followed by some unknown attributes (similar than the other list objects), and the last attributes should be [[Template:RCO_TOC_reference_types|events]], as example: <code><Name attribute="event:native:/OnFocusIn"/></code>


*Notes
=Rcomage unknown object attributes=
**The codename "Prim" seems to be inherited from PSX->PSP->PS3 and seems to be a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometric_primitive geometric primitive]. In PSX XMB was used with: type="rect", type="line", type="outline"
*See: [[Talk:Rcomage#objattribdef-ps3.ini]]
At the time of documenting the RCO format for wiki it was posible to identify some/lot of unknown attributes, in the link there are a few of them listed as dirty notes (later was identifyed some more that are not included in the link). At this point there is no need for that dirty notes because the new names of the identifyed attributes was used in the tables in wiki, the dirty notes are just kept to have a record of the changes, and liked here because are very related with this page (needs to be cleaned up together with this talk page)

=ObjUnknown0xB=
<strike>*Superbrainstorming based on smoke</strike>. '''This brainstorming seems to be wrong''', because the object named "XMList" by rcomage seems to be an "item" so it cant have other xml "item" childrens
<strike>**what about this ?, matches prety fine with how are grouped. Main menu separated because is an special object created specifically for top XMB menu, and the others grouped in pairs for "list" and "item". Also matches how are ordered in rcomage. All this attributes appears consecutivelly in groups of two, at top... XMList and XList... then MList MItem... then ObjUnknown0xB and XItem... then LList and LItem... then IList and IItem. Note how XMList doesnt seems to have an XMItem
XMenu
XMList
ObjUnknown0xB <------ is XMItem ?
XList
XItem
MList
MItem
LList
LItem
IList
IItem
If this is true and ObjUnknown0xB is actually XMItem it seems is posible to deduce the attributes because the other "item" objects uses pretty similar attributes (usually 3 attributes, either images or texts), to verify it are needed some/lot of tests by copying the attributes from the other items and creating a 100% custom object for the experiment also a good understanding of all the other rcoxml code, so is hard to know, im not skilled/brave to build this frankenstein but i think the theory is good enought--[[User:Sandungas|Sandungas]] ([[User talk:Sandungas|talk]]) 08:16, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

WidgetType[edit source]

See the "paf" VSH Exports, psx-place talk, and paf.hpp

The goal of this table is to replace the unnoficial rcomage names by the official codenames. The official codenames are used in the VSH export functions (in text format) but inside the RCO internal file structure this names in text format doesnt exists, instead of text strings the RCO structure only stores the ID in hexadecimal format based on the RCO TOC entry types
Rcomage uses a file named tagmap.ini intended to convert the ID (hex) value by the name (text string) when is extracting the RCO contents, and back from text to hex when compiling an RCO

A bit of background story... rcomage was made by zinga burga for PSP, at that time he had to figure the names by looking at other related text strings, he used the exact codename only in few of them, and he invented other unnofficial names based on educated guesses, but there are many innacurate names and a few unknowns
At the initial steps of rcomage development zinga burga realized that it was posible to extract the info inside the RCO structure as an XML format (this is something sony made on purpose), but inside the RCO files there is not any XML. This is when zinga burga coined the term "RCOXML Objects" because rcomage is representing the RCO contents in XML format (and this wiki respected the term), but in the names of the VSH export function are named WidgetType, in other words, we could say the table below is a list of Widgets ordered by his Type
At some point kakaroto and geohot updated rcomage source code to add support for PS3 (they had to change the endianess and added definitions for a few RCOXML objects only supported by PS3 that was breaking the output) but maybe there are new objects specific for PS3 over ID 0x081F. Anyway, so far rcomage supports up to ID 0x081F (32 objects)

  • Notes
    • It seems the items (XItem 0x080C, MItem 0x080A, LItem 0x0814, IItem 0x0818) doesnt have VSH exports because are terminal objects located at bottom of the hierarchy (are always the children of a parent "list")
    • The codename "Prim" seems to be inherited from PSX->PSP->PS3 and seems to be a geometric primitive. In the PSX XMB the options availables for it was: type="rect", type="line", type="outline". It seems to be used to draw lines, frames, etc...

Additionally there is another codename for PhSpin that is a bit confusing by now. Is not clear yet if there are 2 or 3 spin objects
    • The object named Spin by rcomage has been found in official firmware using event names with the word "ispin" (a short form of "ItemSpin"):

Menu lists and menu items associations[edit source]

There are 6 groups of list/item associated with each other that was given consecutive IDs in hexadecimal. The fact that was given consecutive IDs means each group of list/item was implemented at the same time because requires each other (an "item" requires a parent "list", and a "list" without children "items" doesnt makes sense)

  • The "items" doesnt have the 21 standard attributes, only have 3 specific attributes (usually a ref/text/image). This is an easy way to identify them, by the abscense of the standard attributes
  • The "lists" does have the 21 standard attributes, followed by a variable number of specific attributes. All the lists (except 0x0804 and 0x0806) seems to use specific override attributes intended to adjust them dinamically for the different screen resolutions supported by PS3, see: XMB Layouts.
  • The consecutive ID's is a handy way to identify them, it means there is an "item" ID next to each "list" ID (or the other way around, there is a "list" ID next to each "item" ID)

ItemsCount or ItemNum attribute from list objects[edit source]

The first specific attribute of the list objects (in other words, the attribute in position 22, located inmediatly after the 21 standard attributes) indicates how many chidren there are in the list. In RCOmage this attribute is named "ItemsCount" but it seems the codename is "ItemNum", this VSH exports are used to change the value dinamically to hide/show the items from a list:

  • paf::PhXmBar::SetItemNum(int) not mentioned in VSH Exports page
  • paf::PhXmList::SetItemNum(int)
    • paf::PhXmList::Redraw(int)
  • paf::PhMenuList::SetItemNum(int) not mentioned in VSH Exports page
  • paf::PhList::SetItemNum(int)
    • paf::PhList::Redraw(void)
  • paf::PhInfoList::SetItemNum(int)
    • paf::PhInfoList::Redraw(void) not mentioned in VSH Exports page
  • paf::PhCheckBoxList::SetItemNum(int) not mentioned in VSH Exports page

Objects with additional override attributes[edit source]

The override attributes are intended to adjust the position and size of the objects dinamically for the different screen resolutions supported by PS3, see: XMB Layouts
Most of the objects definitions starts with the 21 standard attributes that includes 6 overrides (positionOverrideX, positionOverrideY, positionOverrideZ, sizeOverrideX, sizeOverrideY, sizeOverrideZ)
But there are a few objects with additional overrides, all this additional overrides (different than 6 overrides from the standard attributes) are unknown, seems to be related with font sizes, linespaces or stuff that requires an individual visual adjustment

  • List objects
    • MenuList 0x0809 and CheckboxList 0x081C
      • 6 overrides from the standard attributes + 3 specific override atributes (override something size XYZ ?)
    • List 0x0813
      • 6 overrides from the standard attributes + 2 specific override atributes (override something size XY ?)
    • InfoList 0x0817
      • 6 overrides from the standard attributes + 1 specific override atribute (override something size X ?)
  • Text objects
    • Text 0x080D and LabelText 0x081F
      • 6 overrides from the standard attributes + 3 specific override atributes (override something size XYZ ?)
  • Other objects
    • LevelMeter 0x081E
      • 6 overrides from the standard attributes + 1 specific override atribute (override something size X ?)

ObjUnknown0xB[edit source]

The object named ObjUnknown0xB by RCOmage (ID 0x80B) seems to be a list (the parent of ID 0x80C). If this speculation is true it means it should start with the 21 standard attributes, the attribute number 22 should indicate how many children it have (attribute name "ItemsCount" in RCOmage, or "ItemNum" in official code), followed by some unknown attributes (similar than the other list objects), and the last attributes should be events, as example: <Name attribute="event:native:/OnFocusIn"/>

Rcomage unknown object attributes[edit source]

At the time of documenting the RCO format for wiki it was posible to identify some/lot of unknown attributes, in the link there are a few of them listed as dirty notes (later was identifyed some more that are not included in the link). At this point there is no need for that dirty notes because the new names of the identifyed attributes was used in the tables in wiki, the dirty notes are just kept to have a record of the changes, and liked here because are very related with this page (needs to be cleaned up together with this talk page)

anchorMode[edit source]

Rcomage has some problems with this attribute from PS3 RCOs, it manages the value as 4 bytes length but in the internal RCO file structure is divided in 2 chunks of 2 bytes each. The anchor mode is specifyed by the first byte of the second chunk, is unknown why sony "reserved" 2 bytes for the first chunk (first chunk is always filled with zeroes). All this is a bit confusing and what im saying could not be completly accurate because the different endianess in between PSP and PS3 and what RCOmage does internally. RCOmage allows to choose a "data type" for every attribute by editing the file objectattribdef-ps3.ini. There is no way to extract the value accuratelly so the alternatives are to set it as "int", or you can set it to "unk" instead, this way it will be managed as raw data (no conversion applyed so you can see the real value when the info is extracted to XML)

  • Examples:
    • Extracted as "int"
      • anchorMode="0x320000"
    • Extracted as "unk"
      • anchorMode="0x3200"

Events notes[edit source]

  • All the attribute event names in rcomage and here in wiki contains the characters On before the event name to indicate that is an event (it helps when you are reading the xml code generated by rcomage), and because some official event strings found in OFW uses it too, but the real codenames of the events doesnt seems to have that On (the real codename is what goes at the right of the "On"). As example: the vsh export paf::PhWidget::HandleFocusInEvent(paf::PhEvent *) is related with the attribute OnFocusIn ...and... paf::PhWidget::HandleFocusOutEvent(paf::PhEvent *) with OnFocusOut
  • OnScrollIn and OnScrollOut are used in the "list" objects, the "In" and "Out" represents to move the cursor one item in the "list". The confusing detail is the "lists" can be horizontal (along X axis) or vertical (along Y axis). So it seems in a horizontal list (such the main XmBar) the "In/Out" are "Right/Left", and in a vertical list the "In/Out" should be "Down/Up" (this is just a theory based on the existence of vsh exports: paf::PhXmBar::ScrollRight(float, paf::PhEvent *) ...and... paf::PhXmBar::ScrollLeft(float, paf::PhEvent *), but has not been verifyed)
