Advanced question (and forum's not working)

[jVonCarrigan]

First of all, I apologize, for I wanted to post this into the advanced forum, but there seems to be some kind of problem, because I registered, and when I log in it tells me I'm logged in, but as soon as I try to post something in the Technical Forum is tells me "sorry you need to register".  So I'll post my question here:

My problem is this: I want to use a custom GUI to display the dialog phrases. That's fine. I tick the corresponding checkbox, and choose a GUI number. But how can I align the text inside the GUI? 'cause it just starts at the very very left top corner and looks really bad.

And another question: how are the dialog options colours set?  (Both the normal and the "mouseover" ones) . Because that's another thing I need to customize.

Thanks in advance.

if you logged on using the bottom right corner of the forums, use the login button along the top line underneath the banner ad, or vice=versa

as for aligning the dialog choices take a look at:

Text script global variables in the help

specifically:

game.dialog_options_x  Offset into dialog options GUI to compensate for borders  
game.dialog_options_y  Offset into dialog options GUI to compensate for borders  

good luck

Thanks Scummbuddy!
