\"\"You can now in CD-Menu Creator<\/a> set an absolute position for a title, subtitle and button group title. In the latest update of CD-Menu Creator we have added this functionality.<\/p>\n

Normally the X and Y position of a title, subtitle and button group titles are set automatically by CD-Menu Creator. But now you can set the coordinates for these objects manually. This is useful if you really want to have total control of these objects’ positions in a menu window.<\/p>\n

How to set coordinates<\/strong><\/span>
\nTo set coordinates for a title, subtitle and button group titles, you can add a prefix before the actual title text. The syntax is the following:<\/p>\n

[X,Y] My Title<\/strong><\/p>\n

Where X specifies the X position of the title and Y specifies the Y position of the title (in pixels). Below is an example where X and Y has been replaced with numerical values:<\/p>\n

[10,50] My Title<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the example the X position is set to 10 pixels and the Y position is set to 50 pixels.<\/p>\n

When you add coordinates to a title, the coordinates must be set between brackets, “[” and “]”, and the X coordinate and the Y coordinate must be separated with a comma (“,”). Like this:<\/p>\n

[20,80]<\/strong><\/p>\n

The actual title must then be placed after the ending bracket. For example:<\/p>\n

[20,80] My menu title<\/strong><\/p>\n

See also the picture below for an example. The main title coordinates have been set to [50,60] and the sub title coordinates have been set to [160,120]:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Also button’s positions can be set in this way<\/strong><\/span>
\nThere is already functionality<\/a> in CD-Menu Creator to set absolute positions for buttons (via the Button Options<\/strong> dialog box) but this new method can also be used for buttons, if you prefer it and want to be consistent with how to set coordinates for objects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
