[help] guicreatelabel resolution

[Chaos]

hi,

i want to make guicreatelabel on the same place in all resolutions.

guiCreateLabel(0.668,0.85,0.30,5,"Level: Unknown",true)

can you help me with that please?

[iPrestege]

local screenWidth,screenHeight = guiGetScreenSize() 
guiCreateLabel( screenWidth*0.668/screenWidth,screenHeight*0.85/screenHeight,screenWidth*0.30/screenWidth,screenHeight*5/screenHeight,"Level: Unknown",true ) 

Not sure but it should work.

work but not staying on the same place when i change the resolution

work but not staying on the same place when i change the resolution

use this resource, and use "set position code" for your guiwindow or DXtext, etc.

We have u the answer, Try to use the position presets of "Set Position Code" function and see how it works

[mcer]

I going to make it for u, Tell me your screen resoulution.

[mcer]

I created an example

Right Bottom for all resolutions

addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
local screenW, screenH = guiGetScreenSize() 
        Example = guiCreateLabel(screenW - 578 - 10, (screenH - 91) - 20, 578, 91, "EXAMPLE", false) 
        guiSetFont(Example, "sa-gothic")     
    end 
)

[Chaos]

[iPrestege]

It worked fine for me too.

[Chaos]

so why dxdrawtext works fine and only guillabel don't work ?

[mcer]

guillabel is for GUI's Windows

[Chaos]

can i replace this guilabel to dxdrawtext ?

You can't use a similar " guiSetText" Function to the dxTexts. (Doesn't exist)

You need to change a lot of things.

so what should i do now ?

[mcer]

so what should i do now ?

Put the label in a GUI WINDOW and set the alpha of the window to 0.

[Chaos]

you mean like this?

GUIEditor = { 
    window = {} 
} 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot, 
    function() 
        GUIEditor.window[1] = guiCreateWindow(0.78, 0.82, 0.21, 0.18, "", true) 
    expLabel = guiCreateLabel(0.668,0.85,0.30,5,"EXP gained: ??\nTotal EXP: ??\nLevel: Unknown",true) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
        guiSetAlpha(GUIEditor.window[1], 0.00)     
    end 
) 

[mcer]

GUIEditor = { 
    window = {} 
} 
addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", resourceRoot,

    expLabel = guiCreateLabel(0.668,0.85,0.30,5,"EXP gained: ??\nTotal EXP: ??\nLevel: Unknown",true) 
        guiWindowSetSizable(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
        guiSetAlpha(GUIEditor.window[1], 0.00)     
    end 
) 

yeah but use the ScreenH and ScreenW.
