Support / Getting the True Lower Left of the Screen
« on: September 16, 2013, 11:26:27 am »
Hi,
I'm using two tk2dCamera's, one for the game and one for the game's UI, and that was working nicely until I decided to test it out at different resolutions.
The following image illustrates my problem, I'm trying to align a tk2DSprite at coordinates 0,0:
At the native resolution of 1600x900, it's fine, aligned at the true lower left of the screen. When I change the resolution to a smaller 1024x576, however, it stays at the same point relative to the background tiles, and yet there's plenty more that gets displayed below. I don't mind if more of the game gets shown in the background, but I do need those UI elements aligned to the edges of the screen correctly.
Have I misunderstood some aspect of tk2dCamera or tk2dCameraAnchor? How can I reliably get the 0x0 co-ordinate of the lower left hand corner of the screen, regardless of the resolution?

That works wonderfully, thank you.

Support / GUI Elements with Two Cameras
« on: September 11, 2013, 02:14:19 pm »
Hi, I've got a tk2dCamera for viewing game sprites, and I'm making use of ZoomFactor to zoom in and out. However, when I add a UI element, or a TK2dTextMesh they get scaled down as well.
I've seen the occasional reference to creating another camera to use simultaneously, just to view interface objects alone, but I haven't been able to work out the proper configuration.
Can someone please step me through how that works?
