Castillo Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 That resource is very useful, I always use it for all my GUI's. Link to comment

Castillo Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 There's also QT to Lua. viewtopic.php?f=91&t=27739 Is a program to create your GUI designs. Link to comment

drk Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 GUIEditor is friendly LOL It haves a tutorial where you can learn how to use it, it's simple and you can make whatever you want. Link to comment

50p Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I use my brain and paper to do GUI. Link to comment
TopAz Posted April 1, 2012 Author Share Posted April 1, 2012 I use my brain and paper to do GUI. I like your style. Can you tell me how do you do the calculation? Any formula or whatsoever? Link to comment
50p Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I use my brain and paper to do GUI. I like your style. Can you tell me how do you do the calculation? Any formula or whatsoever? That's where the brain part comes into play. This is all basic maths which you should know already. Draw on paper a square, give it a screen size (eg 1600x900, 1024x768), draw your GUI where you want and get a rough X and Y coords from paper. Draw another square for another screen resolution, draw your GUI, get coords. You can then start calculating the coords that are not screen dependent. Or a simple way, you can find the formulas from people on the forum, I'm sure it's been posted many times but I like to be independent and do everything on my own - at least I learn something new this way.

So, getting to the point, we have to play with the GUI coordinates in a graph. I saw people using formula to place a gui on top-left, bottom-right, center, etc. Where can I get those formulas?

50p Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Alignment is easier than you think. Again, paper is useful here. I drew these 2 for your information: This is the easier alignment (screen corners) This is the harder bit because more calculation is needed (middle/centre) I hope you and people who need these will learn something from these drawings.

50p Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 You're welcome. Use paper (or drawing applications) when you need to think about formulas. It's better to see what you need on paper than trying to imagine "how do I do this?" Link to comment
