GUIAPI
GUI-API
GUIAPI is a simple API for creating menus/GUIs. These menus use a combination of custom inventories, custom items, and custom events in order to create an in-depth menu where the player clicks on a button (custom item) in a GUI (custom inventory) to cause custom events which allow for flexible menus. Non-Plugin Developers: This is just an API for other plugins to build upon. This Plugin does (nearly) nothing on its own, it needs a plugin to utilize this API. I made this after requiring an API of this sort for one of my other plugins (EnhancedSpawners), so I made one and decided to release a standalone edition of this API. I know, this kind of API has been done before, but I want to put my own spin on things :P . Also, if you ever need help, just PM me!

It's an API plugin, it allows developers to make plugins with the plugin.

I just uploaded a new version (v1.0.5), in it i added a closeMenu() method to the MenuInteractEvent.
Once that is approved by the BukkitDev staff, all you'll have to do is use that method, here's an example:

I think I know the problem, I'll post a new release right now attempting to fix it. Hopefully it gets approved soon. If version 1.0.3 doesn't fix it, then it's likely a bug on Bukkit's side.

Posted Jul 18, 2014I hope it would not bring too much trouble to you since I don't know how to use the issue-tracker. I find a small problem when using this api which is about the "closeMenu()" method. It works well when I use the method just after I create a new Menu Class like "Menu exampleMenu = new Menu(player, ChatColor.GOLD+"Select an Item", 9);" . I use "exampleMenu.closeMenu();" and it really does close. But if I use it in the MenuInteractEvent, the menu does not close. "event.getMenu().closeMenu();" does not work when I click the button. But "event.getMenu().getMenuName()" could still give me the menu's name. So it shows that it does get the menu which I open, however, it could not close it. The GUI-API is great and I would like to use it in my plugins, so I really want to solve this problem, thank you.
