Go to solution Solved by minibois,

x and y?

As for x:

TextField.x =(WholeFieldWidth / 2) - (TextFieldWidth / 2)

y is the same, but with .y and height obviously.

 

(Not sure what language though and what kind of variables it has)

How do you expect people to help you if you aren't more specific as you are right now?

 

Well he helped me out and I was not specefic. And I kinda did, I said in pixels. Not in programmation, just in general, doing it with your head. I know it's sutpid but I couldn't figure it out.

Well, kind of like I did still.

Take the half of the width of where you want to place it, take half of the width of the thing you want to place somewhere and subtract that last number, with the first one and you will know where to position the middle of the object on the platform.

 

Are is this still too much like programming? '-'

It's fine, I was just precising that it wasn't for a language because you said "(Not sure what language though and what kind of variables it has)". I already picked your answer.
