Forceaspectwidth (GUI item property)

From modwiki

Jump to: navigation, search

This parameter is used to force the GUI renderer to assume a different aspect ratio for a particular item. So, if you have a GUI that doesn't fit into the 4:3 normal aspect ratio, you can still use it and have text with a perfect ratio.

I'm still unsure on how to use this, but apparently, it assumes the new width is the total width of the item. So a forceaspectwidth of half your normal width would result on a flatten-looking text.

Also, for this parameter to work, you must place a new, empty windowDef inside the item you're already using. This is because the parameter will only act on items that are considered complex items. More information here.

The value of this property cannot be changed at runtime.
