Title: Load screen RON template [solved]
Post by: HandsFree on Sun 07/08/2011 14:03:14
Hi,

I'm using the RON template and I noticed the load screen only shows the last  5 saves. There is no scrolling so earlier saves are not accesible. Is this a setting somewhere?
I tried the game 'note to self' again for reference and it has the same problem. So maybe it's something with the template?

Any ideas?
thanks

First try and make a new savegame, then check the save folder see if there are more than 5 savegames. If that's the case, then yes, it appears that it's not scrolling.

There are 10 savegames in the folder...
Is there anything I can do to enable scrolling?

Open the SAVE GAME gui in the editor and look at the listbox control.   I believe there is a property that will enable the default scroll controls.  You probably won't be happy with them as most people implement their own using the built-in listbox.functions and listbox.properties.

Thanks, I'll look at that later today.

edit: that's strange, ShowScrollArrows is true. But I don't see any.
Maybe a compatibility issue Ron template vs AGS 3.2.1.?

Check the GUI, maybe some other object is overlaying them.  Also check the background image.  The default scroll controls are black (or other color) lines with transparent fill aso perhaps they are not showing up agaist the background color.  If the background is black and the lines are blcak then they may not be visible to the eye.

Found it. The ShowBorder option was false. When I set it to true the scroll arrows showed up.
