Hello everyone,

 

I really don't get it, how a GuiTextField is aligned in a GuiContainer.

I have overwritten the drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer to display my Background Image as followed:

 

 

@Override
    protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer(float par1, int par2, int par3)
    {
        mc.renderEngine.bindTexture(resourceLocation);

        GL11.glColor4f(1.0f,1.0f,1.0f,1.0f);

        int bgX = width/2-128;
        int bgY = height/2-28;

        this.drawTexturedModalRect(bgX, bgY, 0, 0, 256, 57);
    }

 

 

 

Background-Image:

 

So the Background-Image is centered in Minecraft, as I wanted.

 

Now the problem:

When I initialize my GuiTextField like so:

tfFrequency = new GuiTextField(fontRendererObj, 0,0,tfWidth,tfHeight);

 

...the TextField is anywhere. Here is a Screenshot as it looks In-Game:

 

So the coordinates 0/0 are up there. Why? Where do the coordinates of a GuiTextField start?

 

Thanks for every help and sorry for my bad english,

Julian

If you know how you centered background, you should know how to center text field. Answer is there.

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought, too, but if you would have read my Thread, you would know, that that's not the case. Please give a useful answer, or let it be.

 

Why is 0/0 not in the left top of the Minecraft-Screen or in the left top of the GUI-Background? It's just anywhere?!

 

With best regards,

Julian

if you got a problem tell us which version u are helps a lot.....

are u sure u got the arguments right? that 0,0 is the position?

Hello, thanks for your answer.

 

I use Forge-Version 10.13.4.1448 for Minecraft 1.7.10

 

I just figured out, that when I overwrite the method "drawScreen()" in my GuiContainer-class and draw the GuiTextField in that method instead of drawing it in the "drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer"-method, the coordinates are right and everything is perfect. But why is 0/0 in the drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer-method on another place than 0/0 in the drawScreen-method?

 

Thanks for your answer!

Thank you sooo much
