|
Hello! Sorry again to ask another question.
This time it about menu anchor point and its place on the screen
I would like my menu 11 to appear x4, y7 on map 18.
What command should I use? The ancor point can change under the menu item.
Can it affect it placement under plotscripting?
As alaways thanks a lot for your help!

I assume you mean you want to use map 18 as the background for the menu, and you are talking about position in tiles.
Since the menu position is given from the centre of the screen (160, 100), and you want (4*20,7*20) = (80,140), you want to set the menu position to (-80,40).
But yes, you can change all (or most, at least) of a menu's data with plotscripting!
You can set the anchor with
| Code: | set menu anchor x (handle, align:left)
set menu anchor y (handle, align:top) |
And the position with
| Code: | set menu offset x (handle, -80)
set menu offset y (handle, 40) |

I don't know what you mean. Menu items do not have anchor points, other than setting text alignment to left/centre/right.
