Fullscreen attribute for menus

[guiismiti]

Hi,

I created a menu for the airstrike (some have seen it in video).
In this menu, each dot is an element, and when players select it, the menu closes and the airstrike hits that position.



The problem with it is that the first and last two columns don't work. Nothing happens when I click it.

Then I tried to set the fullscreen attribute to the menu

fullScreen		1

Problem solved, but now there's another one. When I select an element, the menu no longer closes.

Here's part of my menudef (the rest of the menu is just the elements):

		    name            "airstrike"
    rect            0 0 640 480
    fullScreen        1
    focuscolor        AIRSTRIKE_FOCUSED_COLOR
    style            WINDOW_STYLE_EMPTY
    blurWorld        5.0
    onEsc 
    {
        close airstrike;
    }

I'm messing around with the rect, looks like it's something to do with that

Always draw a boarder around your rectangle so you can see if it is positioned properly:

itemDef
{
	style			WINDOW_STYLE_SHADER
	rect			-10 128 360 340
	origin			ORIGIN_INFO_BOX1
	background		"gradient"
	border			1
	bordersize		1
	bordercolor		1.000 0.647 0.290 1
	visible			1
	decoration
}

Looks like I solved it...

		    name            "airstrike"
    rect            -83 0 1366 769
    focuscolor        AIRSTRIKE_FOCUSED_COLOR
    style            WINDOW_STYLE_EMPTY
        
    onEsc 
    {
        close airstrike;
    } 
	

1. -83 is the original position of the first column of elements - the first two columns had negative values;
2. I'm using 1366 instead of 640 - the position of the last two columns was higher than 640;
3. I transposed all elements in the menu by adding +83 to their position value (so the first column is now positioned in 0, and not -83).

Everything works, but...



editted: oh I think I get it now...

You cannot exceed the 640 width. It doesn't work. Since otherwise, the developers themselves would have used it. And they never did. You must stick with the 640 x 480 engine width.
