[Graphics] How to move Option menu's fields?

[McPaul]

Hey yo!

I'm trying to change defaults Option menu's categories such as set battle style and fast text speed and move them so they are aligned for graphic convenience. I've tried many combinations in src/option_menu.c but even if the text of the options move the fuctions themselves won't. Could someone help me please? Thanks a lot!

I actually found it after some hours of tries! I changed all the default text speed part! So I'm sharing it with you guys!

First I changed the default text speed of the game located in src\new_game.c which is gSaveBlock2Ptr->optionsTextSpeed = OPTIONS_TEXT_SPEED_MID; to gSaveBlock2Ptr->optionsTextSpeed = OPTIONS_TEXT_SPEED_FAST;.

Then I opened src\option_menu.c and changed all this part:

static u8 TextSpeed_ProcessInput(u8 selection)
{
if (JOY_NEW(DPAD_RIGHT))
{
if (selection <= 1)
selection++;
else
selection = 0;

sArrowPressed = TRUE;
}
if (JOY_NEW(DPAD_LEFT))
{
if (selection != 0)
selection--;
else
selection = 2;

sArrowPressed = TRUE;
}
return selection;
}

static void TextSpeed_DrawChoices(u8 selection)
{
u8 styles[3];
s32 widthSlow, widthMid, widthFast, xMid;

styles[0] = 0;
styles[1] = 0;
styles[2] = 0;
styles[selection] = 1;

DrawOptionMenuChoice(gText_TextSpeedSlow, 104, YPOS_TEXTSPEED, styles[0]);

widthSlow = GetStringWidth(1, gText_TextSpeedSlow, 0);
widthMid = GetStringWidth(1, gText_TextSpeedMid, 0);
widthFast = GetStringWidth(1, gText_TextSpeedFast, 0);

widthMid -= 94;
xMid = (widthSlow - widthMid - widthFast) / 2 + 104;
DrawOptionMenuChoice(gText_TextSpeedMid, xMid, YPOS_TEXTSPEED, styles[1]);

DrawOptionMenuChoice(gText_TextSpeedFast, GetStringRightAlignXOffset(1, gText_TextSpeedFast, 198), YPOS_TEXTSPEED, styles[2]);
}

}

Here it is!

Fast text speed by default with the FAST option in the first position in the OPTION menu!
