Thank you Smivs and A_C.
My first micro-OXP (for personal use only) works fine. Reticle turns red, com and message gui has moved to the left. Now, to start adjusting so that I can have one on each side.

Make the 'x' co-ordinate into a positive number, say 200.

Tinker with the 'row size' as well... you'll get more text in using a smaller row.

This one I have already discovered. Thanks.

What happens while the clock is adjusted? Will the ' (adjusting)' be printed only outside the screen?
there is enough room left beside the HUD, the picture I posted shows only a detail.

@smivs and another_commander: Thanks for the code to change the position of the comlog and the message gui. That will come in handy.

btw: Is there a documentation or summary about all the possible settings in the hud.plist available?

greetings

CB

Hi, is it possible to move the message that keeps blocking my view :? Using just notepad++ ?

I'm using the milhud.plist

I looked at what is typed here on this thread, but in note pad it all looks different :shock:

I've no idea what to put or where to put it,I just want to move the message over to the left.

:oops:

plists can be written in either xml
<key>something</key>
<float>1.5</float>
or openstep format
something = 1.5;
Most oxps of late use the easier to read openstep, but you probably opened an xml formatted plist...

yeah, it looked like the first one.

can it be done , or do I need to open it in a different way?

(total noob on this btw)

Having had a look at this thread, it looks like your best bet - if you're on windows - is to convert the openstep stuff from the examples above to xml using the program mentioned there, then insert the xml-ified bit it in the right spot! :)

If you're on a mac, you should be able to convert between the two formats at will!

Resizeguis is an old key that has been dropped from the code yonks ago.

it might well be a nesting issue,

comm_log_gui & message_gui need to both be at the same nesting level as overall_alpha, reticle_target_sensitive, dials and legends

Can you actually show us the whole of the plist? (the one without the useless resizeguis thing?)

You’ll note that the linked post does say resuzeGuis: wasn’t actually useful for HUDs at the time.
