Center the title menu...

[Twar3Draconis]

How would I center the menu at the title screen? It looked easy from the options.rpy file, but I was getting errors using those.

Code: Select all

        $ style.mm_menu_frame.xpos = 0.5
        $ style.mm_menu_frame.xanchor = 0.5
        $ style.mm_menu_frame.ypos = 0.75
        $ style.mm_menu_frame.yanchor = 0.5

I get:

Code: Select all

SyntaxError: invalid syntax (line 133)

Is there another method to center the title screen menu?

EDIT: This is in the Options.rpy file.

Really not sure but maybe you don't need the "$" if it's in a python block?

I had previously attempted that, but ended up with similar results.

Twar,

EITHER change your default options.rpy entry from:

Code: Select all

...
    # style.mm_menu_frame.xpos = 0.5
    # style.mm_menu_frame.xanchor = 0.5
    # style.mm_menu_frame.ypos = 0.75
    # style.mm_menu_frame.yanchor = 0.5
...

to the normal form (removing the '# ' in front of the lines):

Code: Select all

...
    style.mm_menu_frame.xpos = 0.5
    style.mm_menu_frame.xanchor = 0.5
    style.mm_menu_frame.ypos = 0.75
    style.mm_menu_frame.yanchor = 0.5
...

exclusive OR (in the INIT section of your game code) include:

Code: Select all

...
    $ style.mm_menu_frame.xpos = 0.5
    $ style.mm_menu_frame.xanchor = 0.5
    $ style.mm_menu_frame.ypos = 0.75
    $ style.mm_menu_frame.yanchor = 0.5
...

Don't get them confused or even mix forms (like using the $-version in the options.rpy file). Remember that every default setting you (re)define in your INIT section overrides your options.rpy file anyway. I personally never use or change the options.rpy; I set everything I need in the game script simply to avoid confusing myself

Thanks! I tried what you did, execpt in a new *.rpy and it worked.
