How do I get my game to look like the screenshot
All I got is the lib and the gmk in one folder

And the gmk has unknown in all the actions

[MidgetMines]

go into my computer>program files>gamemaker>then paste the lib file into the lib folder.

[mrsmes]

it doesn't work 4 my, version of Game Maker, I mean I tried everything and I have Game Maker 7.0, but it just won't work...

[game_makin_guy]

It definitely works with GM7, both registered and unregistered, because at some point i've used it on both, what exactly have you done and in what way is it not working?

One other note
I was thinking about maybe doing anther update, which would allow an unlimited number of options and an image as a selector, I probably won't be able to get around to it for a few weeks but would anyone be interested?

[Stiny]

That would be awsome!

Oh and i love this lib. It's been extremely useful to me.

I am making a character selection page and i would love it if you gave it the feature to let sprites be the options instead of words!

[game_makin_guy]

Now released version 3! To add more than six options simply place more than 1 "menu names" action. I haven't put sprite selectors and sprites as slots on this one though, that'll come in a 3.1, which should be soon-ish.

Hmm... When I run your example and try to click on something I get various error messages...

When I try to click on "Menu"...

ERROR in
action number 1
of Draw Event
for object Dropdowns1:

Error in code at line 17:
while(slotdraw<=slot_max){draw_text(argument1,argument2+(menu_
font_size+4)*slotdraw-(menu_font_size/5),menuname[slotdraw])

at position 105: Unknown variable menuname or array index out of bounds

When I click on "Extras"....

ERROR in
action number 1
of Draw Event
for object Dropdowns2:

Error in code at line 17:

font_size+4)*slotdraw-(menu_font_size/5),menuname[slotdraw])

at position 105: Unknown variable menuname or array index out of bounds

When I click on the small blue box in the corner and than click on "Main Menu"...

ERROR in
action number 1
of Draw Event
for object Big Dropdown:

Error in code at line 17:
while(slotdraw<=slot_max){draw_text(argument1,argument2+(menu_

at position 105: Unknown variable menuname or array index out of bounds

And when I click on the small blue box in the corner, and than click on the same box again...

ERROR in
action number 1
of Draw Event
for object Standard:

Error in code at line 5:
if(menuname[0]=true){

at position 5: Unknown variable menuname

It looks like it's not finding any variable called "menuname".

[game_makin_guy]

I don't know why it does that, ill have a look soon if i remember but its probably because they were made with different versions (i think i just kept a fairly old example when i went for unlimited options which was an almost complete rewrite), if their are any actions in the example which give the message about action ot existing then thats probably the case. Thx for the feedback.

Wow this LIB is quite useful... I'll be using it in my upcoming game.
