Hello!

I'm a newbie here and using AGS. I'm trying it out with several tests, using the tutorial, and I have everything sorted out, more or less, and I'm about to start making my own game, but there's a problem I can't solve: The top menu with all the options and the objects I grab looks weird, I can only see it partially (see attached screen capture). Why does this happen? I have tried changing the screen resolution and it's still the same, and I can't find similar topics in the forums...

Thank you in advance!

Check the size (width and height) of your GUI: If the GUI width is NOT equal to your resolution's screen width, try doubling them. This can happen when you change game resolutions.

Thank you so much! Looks like it had something to do with it, because I changed the width and height and I can see the full menu now... but teh buttons have come closer and I can't click then when I'm playing. Plus, the exit and save menus leek looking weird (see captures). I have tried to look for a way to modify the GUI buttons and fonts but I can't find how... Help, please?

Thank you!!!

Mmmmmh... I can now modify the sice of the buttos for the gPanel, but I can't touch the buttons from the gIconBar, hence them not working...

You need to space the buttons apart. Drag the top right icon (?) to the far right of the iconbar and move the others to the right and have a small space in between so they all fit nicely onto the iconbar width.

Best to drag them all, one at a time, and then used each icon events top and left positions to move each icon gently.

Same as with the Exit GUI icons and you may need to adjust the font for the text display.

This should help.

Worked perfectly! Sorry for the dumb question, I can see how easy it was now, but I was blocked!

Thanks!
