Manual - Error in Meters > General Options text?

Post by philmate48 »

First, a provisional apology if I've got the bull by the tail. I'm a real newbie, loving it but still puffing my way up the learning curve.

See Manual (both 3.3 and 4.0 Beta) > Meters > General Options > Options > X, Y:

The following appears:
Specifies the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) position of the meter in pixels relative to the top-left edge of the skin.
...
Examples:
X=150 : Meter begins 150 horizontal pixels from the right edge of the skin window.
Y=75 : Meter begins 75 vertical pixels from the top edge of the skin window.
Shouldn't the first example read "X=150 : Meter begins 150 horizontal pixels from the left edge of the skin window"? Not a very major point, but it threw me off the scent for a while. If I'm wrong, please accept my apology and be kind to me.

By my reckoning, JSM, you read my post and corrected the error in less than 3 minutes. Wow!
