To see how each part is used, you can refer to the default layout data or the layout data of a sample game. In particular, the title screen, menu screen, config screen, and battle status screen will be helpful in using the various parts. #br ***''Containers'' [#fee30112] Containers are the base parts of the layout that bind the various elements together. A container can have other containers or panels as child elements. (Container for Entry Selection only, it cannot be a child of another container.) |Icon on the Tree|Container Name|Description|h |#ref(./24_menuSys.png)|Container for Entry Selection (Menu Container)|This container is the base for the screen menu. It cannot be placed as a child of another container. Also, with the exception of some screens, only one can be placed on each screen.&br;Information such as the cursor used in menus and page feeds are also specified in this container.| |#ref(./24_menuitem.png)|Container for Elements of Entry Selection (Submenu Container)|This container is used as selections in the menu. You can specify what to do when a selection is made in the game, and what screen to open.&br;This container can only be placed as a child of a menu container.| |#ref(./24_container.png)|Container for Rendering (Rendering Container)|A container that can organize elements to be rendered.&br;It can also be used simply to display still images.| ***''Panels'' [#m2c13103] A panel is "an element that will be displayed in the layout". Panels cannot have children. It can be used by itself or belong to a container. |Icon on the Tree|Container Name|Description|h |#ref(./24_text.png)|Panel for Rendering Strings (Text Panel)|This panel displays in-game parameters specified by text or special formats. Depending on the special format you specify, images may also be displayed.&br;(e.g., specifying the special format \equipimage[] will display the equipment item image specified in the Database).&br;This panel, used to display in-game parameters and images, will be used very often.| |#ref(./24_image.png)|Panel for Rendering Sprites (Sprite Panel)|This panel displays the specified sprite.&br;Sprites created using the [[Sprite Tool]] can be displayed, including images.| |#ref(./24_menuslider.png)|Panel for Slider Operation (Slider Panel)|This panel is used to display the HP gauge and sliders for volume control and other operations using the thumb (knob).&br;It can be used for specific actions specified by the parent container.| |#ref(./24_menuspin.png)|Panel for Spin Operation (Spin Panel)|This panel provides a mechanism for selecting text entries with left and right input operations. It is used in situations where "Fast/Normal/Slow" is selected by toggling the left and right keys.&br;It can be used for specific actions specified by the parent container.&br;Currently, it only takes effect in the "Config" screen.| The figure below shows the system layout (default layout) of the "Menu" screen. #ref(./LayoutTool_Container.png,70%) #br - The "Main Menu Window" container is a menu container. It is the foundation for submenu containers such as items and skills ....... It also manages the size of submenu containers, spacing between containers, and cursor position. - The "Items" container is a submenu container. "Skills" and "Equipment" ...... are likewise submenu containers. Submenu containers are menu selections and can only be placed as children of a menu container. This container manages which menu to move to when this section is selected. - The "Simplified Status" container is a Container for Rendering. The "Cast 1" to "Cast 4" containers, which are also rendering containers, are included as children of the "Simplified Status" container. Container for Rendering can also specify an image to be displayed, but no image is assigned to the container here. The face icon and the various values and gauges displayed in the "Cast 1" container are shown in the various panels arranged as children of the container. The figure below shows the cast parameter display section at the bottom of the system layout (default layout) on the "Menu" screen. #ref(./LayoutTool_Pannel.png,70%) #br You can see that most of the display objects are made of "Text Panels". The "Cast Icon: red frame" is displayed with the special format specifying "the icon of the cast specified in Database > [[Casts]] or the image of the cast when moving". The "HP: green frame" designates just the text "HP". The "HP value: black frame" is displayed in a special format, specifying the "current HP of the first character in the party" and the "MaxHP of the first character in the party". The "HP bar: blue frame" uses a slider panel to display the current HP value in the form of a gauge. **Container for Entry Selection (Menu Container) [#v4b6ca35] The menu container is the foundation of the so-called "menu". The menu window itself is the "menu container" and the selections on top of it are the "submenu containers". ***Key Properties [#t8a3d6eb] The followings are some of the key property options of the menu container. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_メニューコンテナ.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_MenuContainer.png,70%) #br -''Mask Image'' By specifying an image for the mask, the container's child elements can be cropped. Images with alpha can also be used for mask images. Download the [[Mask Image Sample:https://rpgbakin.com/pukiwiki_en/?plugin=attach&pcmd=open&file=Circle.png&refer=Update%20log]] and try it out by specifying it as the "Mask Image" for your container. #br It will be easier to understand the effect if the "image" of the container to be specified in that case is left unset. - ''Effects'' This is where you can specify the motion for the menu window to appear or disappear. Motion is specified as created by the [[Sprite Tool]]. Select a sprite set from the "Sprite Set referring to "Motion"" section and assign the motion contained in the sprite set to the Appearance, Motion During Display, and Disappearance motions. A sprite set called "LayoutAnimation" is assigned as default data, so please select the necessary motion from it. #br If you would like to create a new motion, use the [[Sprite Tool]] to create a "sprite". The "LayoutAnimation" specified by default is located in the reserved folder under Resources > Sprites. First, let's copy and paste this data and then modify it with the [[Sprite Tool]]. #br Note that "Effects" refers only to the movement of the sprite, not to the image specified in the Sprites. - ''Submenu Container Settings'' The size of the "submenu containers" and the spacing between containers are specified in this section of the menu container. The "Items" under the Main Menu Window in the Layout Parts List is a "submenu container," but its size and position (offset) from the menu origin are specified in this section. #br Note that the "Offset" in the "Submenu Container" property is the value that will be added to the offset specified in this section. - ''Menu Container Properties are Long'' The properties of the menu container contain many options. Move the scrollbar to reveal the cursor and page mark settings at the bottom of the Properties section. It is easy to miss them, so please keep them in mind. ***Menu Container Properties [#v1373829] ---- -&size(16){''Basic''}; Specify basic settings such as the position of layout parts. ---- --''Display Position X'' Specify the X Coordinate of the layout part. --''Display Position Y'' Specify the Y Coordinate of the layout part. --''Horizontal Size'' Specify the width of the display size of the layout part. --''Vertical Size'' Specify the height of the display size of the layout part. --''Display Origin'' Specify the display origin of the layout part. --''Scale X'' Specify the display scale of the horizontal (X) axis of the layout part. --''Scale Y'' Specify the display scale of the vertical (Y) axis of the layout part. --''Special Coordinate Specification Tag'' By specifying this tag, this part will be displayed at the origin of each tag specified on the Bakin side during events and battles.

The image specified here takes precedence over the image specified in Game Definition > System Resources. --''Page Position'' Specify a graphic to indicate that the display entries span multiple pages. The image specified here takes precedence over the image specified in Game Definition > System Resources. **''Container for Elements of Entry Selection (Submenu Containers)'' [#i850fc6d] Submenu containers are "menu entries" that can be selected by moving the cursor. They can only be placed as children of a menu container. Note that ''&color(red){the size of the container and the order within the menu are specified in the parent menu container};''. This container, on the other hand, allows you to specify the behavior of the selected entry, etc. ***Key Properties [#u8755019] This section describes the key property options of the submenu containers. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_サブメニュー.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_SubMenuContainer.png,70%) #br - ''Action and Layout to be Opened'' The "Action" option specifies what happens when a player selects a submenu container (moves the cursor over it and presses the "Decide" button) during a game. Then, "Layout to be Opened" specifies which layout will be opened when that "Action" occurs. #br In the above image, pressing the decision button at "Items" during the game will trigger the "Display Item Menu" action specified in the property "Action" and open the "ItemSelect" layout of the Item Selection screen specified in the "Layout to be Opened" property. #br ''&color(red){This is the section to pay special attention to when creating a layout and checking it through test play or other means.};'' #br For example, you may have created a new layout "NewItemSelect" for the Item Selection screen and decided to try it out to see how it looks in the game, but when you play the test and press the decision button under "Items" in the menu, the layout you created does not appear. The problem is most likely caused by not specifying "NewItemSelect" in the "Layout to be Opened". #br Please take a look at the Action section of the submenu containers on the various screens and use it as a reference for your creation. -''Action "Call Common Event"'' There is an action that can call a common event by pressing the decision button. The common event to be specified must be created in advance in the Map Editor > [[Common Event Palette]]. #br For example, create an event where everyone's HP is recovered. If you have an entry in the menu that specifies the action that calls the event, you can simply select that entry during the game to recover all of the party members' HP. -''Property Entries Change Depending on the "Action" Specified'' For example, "Common Event" will not be displayed unless "Call Common Event" and "Close and Call Common Event" are specified in the "Action" section. Depending on the "Action," entries that do not make sense to specify will not be displayed. ***Submenu Container Properties [#xe5c5518] ---- -&size(16){''Basic''}; Specify basic settings such as the position of layout parts. ---- --''Offset X'' Specify the offset value in the horizontal (X) direction from the position specified in the parent menu container. The value is added to the value of the menu container's Submenu Container Settings > Offset X. --''Offset Y'' Specify the offset value in the horizontal (Y) direction from the position specified in the parent menu container. The value is added to the value of the menu container's Submenu Container Settings > Offset Y. --''Display Condition Switch'' Assign an event switch to show/hide this part depending on its state. ---- -&size(16){''Effects''}; Specify settings related to the effects, such as the appearance and disappearance of layout parts. ---- --''Sprite Set referring to "Motion"'' Specify the sprite set to be used for the effect of displaying the layout. Information other than "Image" of the specified sprite set is referenced. --''Motion During Display'' Specify the motion being displayed. --''Appearance Motion'' Specify the motion at appearance. --''Disappearance Motion'' Specify the motion at disappearance. --''Decision Motion'' Specify the motion at the time of decision. ---- -&size(16){''Control''}; Specify the behavior of the layout parts. ---- --''Submenu Container to Select When Pressing Up'' --''Submenu Container to Select When Pressing Down'' --''Submenu Container to Select When Pressing Left'' --''Submenu Container to Select When Pressing Right'' You can specify which submenu container the cursor will move to depending on the direction of the player's input. Note that some submenu containers may be generated that are not selected depending on what is specified. --''Action'' Specify the action to be taken when this entry is selected. --''Input to Execute Action'' The action is executed when the specified input occurs. Which key/button is assigned to the input to be set can be specified in "Assign Input Device" under Game Definition > Rules and Operations. --''Layout to be Opened'' Specify the layout to be opened when this entry is selected. Select from the screen layouts specified in the "Action" section. --''Hide Parent Container when Layout is Opened'' Specify whether to hide the "Container for Entry Selection" to which it belongs when the specified layout is opened. --''Common Events'' Specify common events to be executed when selected. It is necessary to create a common event to be executed first. It is also necessary to specify "Call Common Event" or "Close and Call Common Event" as the action of this container. --''Hide Parent Container when Layout is Opened'' Specify whether to hide the menu container to which it belongs when the specified layout is opened. --''Display Selection Frame Image'' When this container is selected, specify whether the selection frame image specified in "Submenu Container Settings" of the menu container should be displayed. --''Display Cursor'' Specify whether the selection cursor specified in "Submenu Container Settings" of the menu container will be displayed when this container is selected. --''Disable Auto Assignment Container Management Number'' Container Management Numbers for submenu containers are usually assigned automatically from the top entry in the layout parts tree. (If it is not a child of a menu container, no number is assigned.) However, if this option is turned on, the number can be removed from automatic assignment. #br This function is used, for example, when specifying selections for sorting on the Item Selection screen. Please refer to the "Dungeon RPG Sample" project in the Top Menu > Game Gallery, which uses this feature in the layout of the Item Selection screen. #br The left side of the figure below shows the state when Container Management Number is automatically assigned. (The red numbers 0 to 3 represent Container Management Number.) The right side of the figure below shows a case in which this option is turned on for the "Continue" container and no Container Management Number is automatically assigned. #ref(./Container_MG_No.png,80%) #br **''Container for Rendering (Rendering Containers)'' [#nfde92d2] The rendering container is an easy-to-use container for organizing display elements that are not involved in the "menu". It can also be used to simply display still images. ***Key Properties [#z966285a] This section describes the key property options of the rendering containers. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_描画コンテナ.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_RenderingContainer.png,70%) #br - ''Special Coordinate Specification Tags'' "Tags" are for parts that can be positioned by events such as selections or conversation windows, or for parts that have uses such as displaying battle parameters close to the cast members...etc. For example, tags such as "TopLeft" and "Center" specified for each container on the "Selection" screen in the system (default) layout are tags that are used in the event panel "[[Select from Selection and Check Results:https://rpgbakin.com/pukiwiki_en/?Conditional+Judgment#dc6dde9e]]". It is also used on the "Conversation" screen and the "Battle Status" screen, but can also be utilized on various other screens. In the Special Coordinates Specification Tag Insertion Dialog, only tags that are valid for that screen can be specified. - ''Image'' By simply specifying a still image in the "Image" of the rendering container, it can be used as a part to produce a single picture. -''Mask Image'' By specifying an image for the mask, the container's child elements can be cropped. Images with alpha can also be used for mask images. Download the [[Mask Image Sample:https://rpgbakin.com/pukiwiki_en/?plugin=attach&pcmd=open&file=Circle.png&refer=Update%20log]] and try it out by specifying it as the "Mask Image" for your container. #br It will be easier to understand the effect if the "image" of the container to be specified in that case is left unset. - ''Container Management Number'' This number affects the "special formats" used in the text panels that are children of this container. The "-1" is equivalent to "no number". ***Rendering Container Properties [#ib8f896a] ---- -&size(16){''Basic''}; Specify basic settings such as the position of layout parts. ---- --''Display Position X'' Specify the X Coordinate of the layout part. --''Display Position Y'' Specify the Y Coordinate of the layout part. --''Horizontal Size'' Specify the width of the display size of the layout part. --''Vertical Size'' Specify the height of the display size of the layout part. --''Display Origin'' Specify the display origin of the layout part. --''Scale X'' Specify the display scale of the horizontal (X) axis of the layout part. --''Scale Y'' Specify the display scale of the vertical (Y) axis of the layout part. --''Special Coordinate Specification Tag'' By specifying this tag, this part will be displayed at the origin of each tag specified by Bakin during events and battles. If this tag is specified, then Properties>Basic>Display Position X,Y are the offset values from this tag. Click the arrow to display a dialog box for selecting a special coordinate specification tag. --''Display Condition Switch'' Assign an event switch to show/hide this part depending on its state. ---- -&size(16){''Visible''}; Specify settings related to the display of layout parts, such as images. ---- --''Image'' Specify the underlying image (background or window frame) for the container. --''Fill with Specified Size as Rectangle'' Fill the area set in "Basic" with the specified color. --''Color'' Multiply the specified image or rectangle by the color specified here. You can also create an image in all white and use this entry to specify the display color. --''Use Additive Composition'' Normally, color calculation is performed by multiplication, but when the switch is turned on, color calculation is performed by addition and the window is displayed. --''Mask Image'' By specifying an image for the mask, the container's child elements can be cropped. ---- -&size(16){''Effects''}; Specify settings related to the effect of layout parts, such as their appearance and disappearance. ---- --''Sprite Set referring to "Motion"'' Specify the sprite set to be used for the effect of displaying the layout. Information other than "Image" of the specified sprite set is referenced. --''Motion During Display'' Specify the motion being displayed. --''Appearance Motion'' Specify the motion at appearance. --''Disappearance Motion'' Specify the motion at disappearance. ---- -&size(16){''Control''}; Specify the behavior of the layout parts. ---- --''Container Management Number'' Specify the container number to be used for special formats, as specified by child elements placed in the hierarchy immediately below this container. For special formats related to party members, "0" indicates the first member, "1" indicates the next member, and for enemy groups, "0" indicates the first enemy, "1" indicates the second enemy, and so on. A "-1" indicates "not specified". --''Hide when Menu is Opened'' Hide this container when the menu is opened. --''Hide when Child Text is Empty'' If there is no information to display in the text panel within the container, this container itself is hidden. (e.g., to display casts and status with special formats. --''Include Parent in Clipping'' When calculating the size of the clipping, a rectangle is generated that includes the parent container. ---- -&size(16){''Special''}; ---- --''Auto Size Adjustment'' You can specify whether this container should automatically adjust its size as the parent container resizes. It can be used on the "Input String" and "General Message" screens. **''Panel for Rendering Strings (Text Panels)'' [#x7cf59b9] This panel displays in-game parameters specified by text or special formats. The name is a string, but depending on the special format you specify, an image may be displayed. This is a very widely used panel. ***Key Properties [#tb99b367] This section describes the key property options of the text panel. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_テキストパネル.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_TextPannel.png,70%) #br - ''Specify What to Display in the Panel'' Specify what to display in this text panel. Clicking on the entry field opens a dialog box and displays the information you have entered. Multiple lines can also be entered. Special formats in the list can be used to display values, images, and text specified in the "Database" menu and other menus. The description section of the format describes what can be displayed by using that format. ***Special Formats [#a5c6afba] Special formats allow you to display values, images, and text specified in the "Database" menu and other menus in the text panel. For example, the HP value of a cast, the name of an item in the item list, or the icon image of a cast on the status screen can be displayed by specifying a special format in the text panel. Some special formats specify one or two parameters. The following is an example of a description with two parameters. ''&size(16){\partystatus[0][0]};'' Special formats can also be used in combination with text. In the example below, "\Partystatus[]" is a special format and "/" is just text. ''&size(16){\partystatus[2] / \partystatus[1]};'' -Container Management Number Some special formats have values that vary depending on the "Container Management Number" of the parent container. For example, the following special format for displaying party member icons will display the icon of the first member of the party if the parent Container Management Number is "0" and the icon of the second member of the party if it is "1". ''&size(16){\partyimageicon};'' For example, let's say you want to create a layout that displays the status of all members at once. First, a rendering container is placed, and then various panels are placed on its children to create a layout that displays data for one person in the party. Simply copy that container for the number of people in the party and change the Container Management Number for each rendering container to display the data for each member. ***Example of Special Forms [#i4751deb] ''&size(16){\partystatus[x]};'' This is a special format meaning "Status X of Party Member according to Container Management Number". -Party Member according to Container Management Number It means the member whose number is specified by the Container Management Number of the parent container of this panel. The first member of the party is "0," the next member is "1," the next is "2," and so on. In other words, if "Container Management Number" contains "0", something of the first cast member is displayed. #br (Caution) When Container B is placed as a child of Container A and a text panel is placed on that child, it is Container B's Container Management Number that is applied to the special format. - Status X It means that the parameter [x] specifies which status of the party member is to be displayed. When you try to put this special format in the dialog, a list will appear telling you which numbers refer to what, as shown in the figure below. In this case, if you put [1], it will show you the maximum HP, and [2] will show you the current HP. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_特殊書式_2.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_SpecialFormat_2.png,70%) #br ''&size(16){\partystatus [x][y]};'' This is a special format meaning "status Y of party member X". The difference from the previous example is that there are two parameters, and the party member number is directly specified by the parameter [x] instead of the parent Container Management Number. - Party Member according to Container Management Number In this case, you can display something of the party member whose number is specified by "X". - Status Y Same as the previous example. In [Y], put the number you need from the list that appears on the right. //#ref(./レイアウトツール_特殊書式.png,70%) #ref(./LayoutTool_SpecialFormat.png,70%) #br ''&size(16){\partyimage};'' Image of Party Member according to Container Management Number - Image The special format described as "Image" displays an icon or image. Basically, it displays the images specified in the "Database" menu. If the image has been replaced by an in-game event, the replaced image will be displayed. #br ''&size(16){\currentitemstatus};'' Status of Selected Item in Possession - Selected When the word "Selected" is used in the description, data related to the entry for which the cursor is positioned in the menu is displayed. ***Text Panel Properties [#sbd1e19f] ---- -&size(16){''Basic''}; Specify basic settings such as the position of layout parts. ---- --''Display Position X / Offset X'' Specify the X coordinate of the layout part. If it is a child of a container, specify the horizontal (X) offset value from the parent part. --''Display Position Y / Offset Y'' Specify the Y coordinate of the layout part. If it is a child of a container, specify the vertical (Y) offset value from the parent part. --''Horizontal Size'' Specify the width of the display size of the layout part. --''Vertical Size'' Specify the height of the display size of the layout part. --''Display Origin'' Specify the display origin of the layout part. ---- -&size(16){''Visible''}; Specify settings related to the visualization of layout parts, such as images. ---- --''Specify What to Display in the Panel'' Fill in the text to be displayed or special formats. Clicking on it opens the Insert Special Format Support dialog, where you can fill in your text. ---Regular text and special formats can be mixed. e.g.: Lv.\partystatus[0] (Lv. is normal text and \partystatus[0] is a special format.) ---Multiple lines can be entered by starting a new line. --''Text Scale'' Specify the scale value of what is being displayed. To accommodate changes in game resolution, font sizes are also specified in scale rather than in points. --''Color'' Specify the text display color. For images, the specified color is multiplied by the color of the original image. --''Inactive Color'' Specify the display color for the disabled text state. --''Status Up Color'' Specify the display color for the text status up state. --''Status Down Color'' Specify the display color for the text status down state. --''Outlines'' Outline the text. --''Shadow'' Shadow the text. --''Italic'' Italicize the text. --''Bold'' Bold the text. --''Auto Line Break'' If the number of letters does not fit in the horizontal size, it will be displayed on several lines. --''Clipping with Parent Container'' If it is specified outside of the parent container, it will not be displayed. ---- -&size(16){''Control''}; ---- --''Auto Line Break'' If the text to be displayed does not fit into the horizontal size of this panel specified in Basic, it will automatically wrap. --''Clipping with Parent Container'' If the text or image to be displayed is specified to be displayed beyond the parent container, it will be clipped and will not be displayed. ---- -&size(16){''Special''}; ---- --''Container Management Number'' Display the Container Management Number applied to this panel. The value will be the same as the Container Management Number of the direct parent container. **''Panel for Rendering Sprites (Sprite Panels)"'' [#d680e6cb] This panel can display "sprites" created by the [[Sprite Tool]]. Images specified by sprites can also be displayed.
