Main Menu Preferences - Artsy - 07-15-2014

I have a few questions I'd like to ask. Is it possible to change...
  • the main menu text arrangement
  • the main menu text alignment
for the elements?

Examples for text arrangement
Default arrangement:

Examples for text alignment
The default text alignment for the main menu elements is center and I want to change it to right.

I'd also like to ask another question. How do I change the position of all these main menu elements? The default is right (width) and center (height) and I want to change it to right (width) and bottom (height). How do I do that? I didn't understand where that could be in menu.cfg...

Any help would be appreciated.

I don't think you can change the order. But try this file: gui/default/gui_main_menu.skin you may find something interesting (I didn't).
For the location of the logo and menu, I know it's in menu.cfg

If I'm not mistaken is this line for the menu:
Code:
<Main
    TopMenuStartRelativePos = "0.8 0.3"
0.8 is x and 0.3 is y (Check, I can't remember)

For logo:
Code:
    MainMenuLogoStartRelativePos = "0.0525 0.26"

No, there are no such editable configs. It seems to be hard coded and was only editable using the Justine hack which was mentioned in a thread not long ago.

Ok, the arrangement is not a huge problem at all. Thanks Amn. The lowest is 0.0 and highest is 1.0 for the x and y values, right?

That sounds right. Probably.

Okay the values for the menu I wanted are "0.9 0.65". Thank you. Looks great.

Going to mess with the logo now. Okay done. Anybody wanna take a look?
