Problem Description

Currently, creating UIs with centered objects is heavily hard-coded. This makes UI development more difficult and can lead to visual glitches.

Proposed Solution

  • Introduce parent containers that store position and size data.
  • These containers should handle centering or left-/right-alignment of their child objects.
  • After aligning the inner objects, the entire container should then be positioned on the screen.

Alternative Approach for Simple Cases

For simple cases, centering could be done by:

  • Calculating the maximum width within a given set of joined objects.
  • However, for more complex scenarios, a more efficient method is needed.

Next Steps

  • Implement parent containers for alignment.
  • Ensure UI7::Menu::JoinAlign correctly calculates the maximum width of the object set.
