the toplevel [theme] tag

Themes are used both for the wesnoth game and the wesnoth editor. Themes allow flexible configuration of how everything is laid out on-screen.

The only key in [theme] is name. This is the name of the theme.

The only tag in [theme] is [resolution], but each theme can have multiple [resolution] tags. The [resolution] tags are scanned until the first one which is of the same or lower resolution than is currently being used is found, and this is used as our theme. This allows us to define themes to work differently on different resolutions, and will allow us to support both high and low resolutions elegantly.

The following keys and tags are recognized for [resolution]:

  • width//,//height dimensions in pixels

All subtags of [resolution] use the following keys:

  • rect defines the rectangle to display on. Parts of a rect=a,b,c,d clause may be:
    • number : absolute positions
    • = : same value as the same field in reference rect (alignment with reference)
    • +number or -number : for a and b, add this value to reference's c and d respectively (spacing from reference)
for c and d, add this value to self's a and b (specify by width and height)
    • =+number or =-number : add this value to same field in reference rect (eg. consider reference as a container box)
  • xanchor//,//yanchor control the behavior of how this rectangle changes as the resolution changes.
    • 'left' its distance from the left side of the screen always remain the same, while changes in the resolution will change its size by the same amount (top for the y axis).
    • 'right' its size always remain the same, as well as its distance to the right side of the screen (bottom for the y axis).
    • 'fixed' its co-ordinates in that axis remain constant
    • 'proportional' its co-ordinates multiplied by the ratio of the resolution being used to the canonical resolution.

[main_map]

defines where the main game display (i.e. all the hexagons and units) is displayed.

[status]

This tag describes the Status Table. This tag contains many other tags, which determine where other game statistics, such as the current turn, and a description of selected units go. For instance, the [time_of_day] tag will determine where the time of day image goes. Each subtag of [status] can contain the following attributes

    • font_size the size of font to use for the status
    • rect the rectangle as for the main_map attribute
    • xanchor the x-wise anchoring as for the main_map attribute
    • yanchor the y-wise anchoring as for the main_map attribute
    • prefix the string to display before the actual status, this is the string id for internationalisation
    • prefix_literal a string to put after the prefix, but before the label for all languages.
    • postfix_literal a string to put after the status
    • postfix the string to display after the postfix_literal, this is the string id for internationalisation
