1.15.2 Center text

[Nitoxym]

Hello!

I wanted to know how can I center text in 1.15.2, I searched ScaledResolution, but it doesn't seem to exist.

Thanks!

It's very easy!

Some geometry:

 

In general it will be similar:

String text = "something";
int objectWidth=fontRenderer.getStringWidth(text);
int screenWidth=Minecraft.getInstance().mainWindow.getWidth();
fontRenderer.drawString(text, screenWidth/2-objectWidth/2, 10);
//we can optimize division:
fontRenderer.drawString(text, (screenWidth-objectWidth)/2, 10);

First off where are you rendering at? Also what do you mean "center text"? In the exact middle of the screen? In the middle of the width, middle of the height. or even any other point on the screen?

At the middle of the width and height, and I'm rendering in game

And screenWidth is the width of the real screen, or the scaled one?

Not that kind of where, where is your code going to be located for this rendering operation?

What do you mean? An event, class? If so, it's in RenderGameOverlayEvent

That's exactly what I meant. Inside the RenderGameOverlayEvent there is a getWIndow() function and that has a bunch of getters inside of it. There is one for getScaledWidth/Height and the normal getWidth/Height not sure which one you want to use though.
