Adjust battle system menus left/right

[Marillmau5]

Requesting hopefully a quick script/fix to

Extend/move space to give more room for names?

the resolution is 480x432

I am using a lot of scripts already,

yanfly core engine,

yanfly battle engine,

with a lot of edits and changes to window padding and text padding.

Can a mod move this to RMMV support, i think it might have a better chance there. Thanks in advanced and sorry for the mess!

You will need a plugin to do this, moving the thread to support won't help.

Thanks for the fast repsone.

Happy new year too!

I tested the script and it correctly can be extended or shortened the right part of the menu for the character names.. So technically your script works perfect. 

But in this case I'm trying to shorten the left part of the menu the moves and break part which is the attack, guard, item part of the menu. I should have mentioned earlier. I want to shorten that the same way you did for the names.

Np. Remove the old version from the plugin list and use this version:

Ok I was able to adjust the command window exactly how I want,

But the battle menu doesnt adjust and move left automatically, it stays where it is,

with the script I cant move it left physically, I can just shrink from the right or extend from the right o the menu.

Here is the updated picture: 

I'd like to get that window with the names to move left, and if i need to extend it i know you already added that to the script so thats good! 

I highly appreciate your work and help for me and for the community. Hopefully this helps people out using smaller resolutions or for specific needs.

Let me know if you want anything else, I don't mind.

Perfection! Thanks so much It took some tinkering with the values but i got it working,

I had to change the command width to 120, the battle width to 120 and the battle position to 360.

And the battle re-positioning to /3. Its like you knew exactly what i needed completely.

i cropped the right of the picture badly but its perfect in game,

thanks so much man!
