Question:

How do you center your Box? I want it to display right in the middle of the screen. I have this code. I have altered each number to many different things and it will not show up right in the middle.

	BoxesUp("100,200,400,400", @Normal)

Do I use another Box Command?

Answer:

The screen is 1000*1000.

Assuming you want your box 300 wide and 200 tall

BoxesUp("350,400,650,600",@normal)

The numbers are derived as follows:

300 wide = 150 on each side of center
200 tall = 100 on each side of center

left=500-150
right=500+150
top=500-100
bottom=500+100

BoxesUp parameters are:

left,top,right,bottom

or

x1,y1,x2,y2

Where x1,y1 is the upper left corner. and x2,y2 is the lower right.
