cölr Position Values...

Okay folks, I've just discovered the oddest thing - the sliding animation X/Y positions in the cölr resource are all zero!

Anybody know what these values relate to?

It allows you to specify the placement of the various main menu components, the progress bar, and a few in-game things.

It's all described in the bible, is it not?

Hardly. It says the x/y positions. Period. No "relative to...", nothing.

That's odd. In my Nova Graphics 3, colr 128 has the following:

Slide1x: 343
Slide1y: 399
Slide2x: 337
Slide2y: 462
Slide3x: 337
Slide3y: 526

Are you sure your data files aren't corrupted? Or maybe they're zero on Macs? I'm on Windows.

Mine all have values.

The menu, logo, rollover and slider co-ords are relative to the menu screen which is probably 800*600 since that's the minimum res for the game. The progress bar ones are relative to the interface bar.

No, it's 1024x768, but that's beside the point. I have a feeling it relates to the button x/y, but I'm not gonna bother with testing it just yet.

I'm pretty sure the x/y values are relative to the top left corner of the screen.

Apparently, not all of them. The sliders are 0,0, which would make them in the top left corner. If pipeline could explain this, it would be great (seeing as how he worked on the stock scenario).

The sliders shouldn't be 0,0. They should have the numbers Aprosenf listed. I think your data files are corrupted.

Perhaps it's just the program. I'll check it with ResEdit.

EDIT: NovaTools says 0. But oddly, the top slider, rollover, and logo are now at the top-left of the screen. Something weird is up with my Nova Graphics 3. I'll replace it.
