Center Caption Window
« on: December 09, 2005, 08:47:22 AM »
Hello,

I've managed to move the caption window to the top of the screen to an X and Y position, which is fine, but the text is not centred, so a long caption runs from the centre to the right.

I guess I need to center the actual caption window but I cannot find a way to do this. Surely it is a very easy thing...???

HELP!!!

Thanks.

I think the easiest way is to place the caption at X coordinate 0, and set it's width to the horizontal resolution of your game. That way the capton line will cover the entire width of the screen, and since the text inside is centered, it will be also centered on screen.
