How do I get my text message on top left side of screen?

Fragmentation	Game - Display to (All players) the text: Hi I used the above action to generate a text for all players to see, but it was on the lower left side of the screen. I have seen maps that have the message on the top left Anyone know what trigger actions gets it up there?

Anitarf	I don't know if there are any trigger actions to get it there, but you probably could push it up there by posting a bunch of blank text messages just after it.

Code:

native DisplayTimedTextToPlayer     takes player toPlayer, real x, real y, real duration, string message returns nothing
native DisplayTimedTextFromPlayer   takes player toPlayer, real x, real y, real duration, string message returns nothing

Adjust x and y between 0.00 and 1.00 (perhaps over 1.00, too).

johnfn	This is what UMSWE does, if you want a quick fix you can just download it... it has the positioned text GUI trigger right in it.
