Jak 2 menu quirks #3504

Open Aloqas opened 2 months ago

Aloqas commented 2 months ago

Upon translating the menus I came across some issues:

If the string here is too long it linebreaks the whole string, instead of the after a hyphen image

The On/Off options are left-aligned so when the word too long it's partly obscured image in 16x9 image

Missions page is misaligned image in 16x9 image

There is little we can do about this other than make text smaller for specific languages.

For the line wrap, you must add a space to trigger proper wrapping. If a single world is too long, it will erroneously advance to the next line.

You need to be mindful of picking shorter words or using abbreviations.

I did try that space to wrap properly before but it uses the same string in the submenu header and it looks a little wacky there with the extra space in it. I guess I'll use a slightly different wording that requires no hyphen.

But yes smaller text overall could probably fix these.
