GUI MEMO. HELP

[fairyoggy]

memos = guiCreateMemo(15, 20, 370, 130,"Hello How are you?Hello How are you?Hello How are you?Hello How are you?Hello How are you?",false,ruless)

See the end of the line - Hello How are you? He(and the rest of the word has gone beyond the region).

How to fix it?

A workaround to this is forcefully cutting the line with a ZWSP (zero-width space), which is an invisible character that allows word-wrappers to break apart a line at a more convenient position. Since there's no other breaking characters in a long line of text like that one, you'll probably want to insert a ZWSP right after each punctuation sign. Ultimately, the fix must come from MTA or CEGUI developers, to make the word-wrap break after punctuation signs (that would make sense, right?).

function addZWSP(str)
  return string.gsub(str, "%p", function(x) return x..utfChar(0x200D) end) -- replace all punctuation signs (%p) with itself followed by UTF character 0x200D (ZWSP)
end

This will allow the word-wrapper to break after any punctuation sign, for example, question marks.

If you can not endure bugs of cegui, there is an alternative dx lib.

How can I use this to, for example, optimize resolutions? Here are some strange numbers of coordinates

Example: 

ruless = DGS:dgsCreateWindow(0.31,0.38,0.382,0.40,"Правила",true)

There are small numbers of coordinates and I do not quite understand how it works.

If in a normal window I had coordinates, for example (300,300,300,300) but here (0.31, 0.38, 0.382, 0.40)

For normal windows I used optimization like that: 

local sW, sH = guiGetScreenSize()
((sW/2)-(300/2),(sH/2)-(300/2),300,300)

I tried to do the same with the new coordinates like this (0.31,0.38,0.382,0.40) but the window disappeared or gone beyond screen radius.

How it works ? Because I ran into problems at different screen resolutions.

Absolute position = Relative position * Parent size

If there is no parent, parent size will be screen size.

For example, My resolution is 1920x1080,

dgsCreateWindow(0.5,0.5,0.2,0.2,"test",true)

The relative position of window is x:0.5, y:0.5

The absolute position of window is x:960, y:540 ( x:1920*0.5, y:1080*0.5 )

The relative size of window is x:0.2, y:0.2

The absolute size of window is x:384, y:215 ( x:1920*0.2, y:1080*0.2 )

I use your code (0.5,0.5,0.2,0.2). How to get the center point for 1920/1080 resolution. The window is not centered with that coordinates

done.
