JB47394 30 Posted April 24, 2019 Does anyone know how to show a display on top of the Zeus map? I can put a display over the main display (46), the main map (12), and the Zeus display (312), but not the Zeus map. This is because the Zeus map is a background control (idc 50) and not a separate display. So putting a display up just hides the controls of the Zeus display, including the map. Close my display and those controls reappear. If I put up a dialog, controls such as the EDIT and CREATE panels (in "controls") will remain up, but if I try that with the Zeus map up (in "controlsBackground"), the map is again hidden. The only thing that seems left is creating controls right in the Zeus display, on top of any controls that are already there. That attempt will probably end badly and I probably won't pursue it. So I'm looking for a lifeline here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a long list of development tasks and the return doesn't justify the potential cost. On 4/25/2019 at 8:14 AM, gc8 said: Have you considered creating a RscTitles class ?

phronk 895 Posted April 27, 2019 You can make an interface with cutRsc that is interactive. Can even potentially do it all in .SQF without even defining a .hpp, depending what controls you need to utilize for your interface. I think going with a .hpp gives you more options though. cutRsc doesn't support a lot of different controls, but works with some basic ones such as RscButton, RscText, RscPicture, and a few others.
