I have been messing with the damn modifications 'till I'm blue in the face and I just can't seem to figure out the X-Y-Z(?) coordinates on this stupid thing. Man, I must have gotten really stupid over the years or something!

What I think is the "X" coordinate and the "Y" as well just does not work!

And a "Z"" ???? How can this be on a 2-dimensional plane??

Can somebody give a dipshit like me a map of the the rough coordinate points on this screen so I can quit kicking myself in the bullocks to figure it out???

Thanx,

Bud

480,0--------------------800,480

 

And Z is the vertical order which determines which object is on top of which when they are in the same (2-dimensional) position.

 

Higher numbers are on top, so if you have, within the same layer, one button with Z=10 and another with Z=20, the later one will be on top of the former.

Well, not quite perfect -- forum swallowed spaces between vertical lines...

 

Also, note that while _most_ elements are just positioned by setting their coordinates in visual side of the script (XXX_800_480.UI files) several are moved around by scripts in "common ".
