brill, thanks makes sense now, im working on a lot of the old vector games to make them more interesting, a bit like the old "mb vectrex" from the 80's where the overlays and backgrounds were laminate overlays. thank you

how did you work out the correct co-ordinates to fit everything together correctly please?

this is driving me nuts so any ideas will be appreciated. i use win 11 on pc with dual screens. i use launchbox and big box for mame and am able to get all the marquees working on my 2nd marquee screen with no issues. each game in mame correctly displays the marquee on the second screen. ive heard that in coinops there is a way to get the marquees showing on the second screen there is some really good coinops content i like using , it seems a bit flat without any 2nd screen support. ive watched all the available youtube videos on the topic but with no luck. if anyone has any pointers id appreciate it. im hopeful the 2nd screen is set up correctly as like i say it works with launch and big box many thanks

just got it working thanks for your help
