Hi Gents

I'm having a bit of an issue with the visual editor for my menus, specifically when I scroll the background of them with the built-in UV scrolling.

I have a few different menus. On each one I call menu_setup() on entering, and menu_cleanup() when exiting

When I first enter them, first time they are fine. If I back out of a menu and 'respawn' the menu, the background becomes corrupt.. just vertical lines.

This only seems to happen with UV scrolling turned on.. is there something else I need to reset when I enter or exit a menu?

TIA!

That would suggest to me something to do with the UV Scale setting

Thanks Blink0k -the X & Y scale seem to be 1.00 on my backgrounds. Is that normal? - it's not something I've changed.

I'm not sure how you can determine that as there is not command to get the UV Scale. have you tried setting UV scale to 1,1?

Make sure your UV wrap modes are set to '1' before you do anything else in code, like so in Tier1:

SetDefaultWrapU(1)
SetDefaultWrapV(1)

Otherwise, your offsets and scaling won't wrap and will just streak at the edges when they clip.

Blink0k -I was looking at the scale X and scale Y just under the rotation slider on the sprite properties - not that then!

SFSW - My hero forever! Thank you that's fixed it!

Not that it matters greatly,. but out of interest, why isn't that the default setting?
