Warning

With the new HTML and Java based UI, this editor became obsolete. The below information on the UI Editor is therefore just touching base and by far not complete - it’s truly legacy information now.

UI Editor

The UI (User Interface) Editor included in Dev Mode allows the editing of the games UI menus, such as the Main Menu.

When opening the UI Editor in the main menu (or any other menu screen), you can move items (called gizmos) around to change their placement. To do so, you can left-click on a gizmo or object to drag-drop it to another location.

If you want to change visuals of any gizmo or item, you can right-click on an gizmo or object to open the context menu. In this menu you can modify things like size or caption or order/placement.

General menu behaviour or UI settings and saving of the changed UI can be done from the general options menu. This can be opened by pressing ESC key.
