3 rows will work great.

Regarding the processing, due to the screen its on the processing won’t be an issue.

It works well once you add the padding. But I want to find out location of the menuimage elements, but it turns up as 0,0 when you try grab location points.

Is there a way of doing it?

What exact method are you using?

For example 

L1 = MenuItemImage::create("A7.png", "A7.png", CC_CALLBACK_1( C1LevelSelector::Level1, this));
L1->setTag(1);

auto menu1 = Menu::create (L1,nullptr);
  
menu1->setPosition( Point( visibleSize.width / 2 + origin.x, visibleSize.height / 1.2 + origin.y))
log("Position Y = %f", menu1->getChildByTag(1)->getPositionY());
log("Position X = %f", menu1->getChildByTag(1)->getPositionX());

this->addChild(menu1, 1);

From log outputs :

Position Y = 0.000000

Position X = -450.000000

which is not the right co-ordinates of that image?

Instead of doing this, set the menus position to (0,0) and set the position of each menu item manually, this is more work but will allow you to access the position.

We briefly discuss this in the following video http://www.sonarlearning.co.uk/coursepage.php?topic=game&course=cocos2d-x-v3&videoindex=46#46

Ok thanks, was hoping to use the automatic menu as it will resize it for different devices automatically. The 3 rows look really good and aligned, not sure where they are positioned though! Guess will need to debug it via psender?

Annoying the menu swallows the listener. So unable to perform debug for the positions already :(

   log("onTouchBegan x = %f, y = %f", touch->getLocation().x, touch->getLocation().y);

?????     

I am trying to extract the current locations of the menu items. But when I set up a listener to click and find location of the menu item it doesnt do anything. When I disable the menu it works, but then I have lost the locations of the current menu items.

I’ve sorted it by doing it manually and using the visiblesize so will help when resizing on other devices and much better than using padding! Many thanks, very happy!

Great to hear :D
