Summary

Spoiler: My original posted question How to make Window_Selectable able to scroll left/right not just up/down? So I believe I did this a while back in RMMV but now I'm having a hard time to remember the process... ... I remember I'll need to add in the sprites for the left/right arrows since for whatever reason that were neglected from being added by default. I've done that fairly easily.. attached is the script that adds the arrow sprites.

How to make Window_Selectable able to scroll left/right not just up/down?

So I believe I did this a while back in RMMV but now I'm having a hard time to remember the process...

... I remember I'll need to add in the sprites for the left/right arrows since for whatever reason that were neglected from being added by default. I've done that fairly easily.. attached is the script that adds the arrow sprites.

Question now is how would I go about making the Window_Selectable scroll the Selectable Items left & right like it does for Up & Down?

For example say I have just 1 row with 8 columns but only want 3 columns displayed on screen, when the player moves the cursor to the 4th item, the selectable items should then "scroll" to the left by 1 (items 2 through 4 would be displayed)

Hope my question makes sense.

Thanks in advance for all the help.


Edit/Update:
Solved

It's all done now Works exactly as it should.
This was quite the process though honestly. Had to alias quite a few functions and add a bunch of new code... but I did manage to get it all working now and have made a plugin for this.
It's now available on my itch.io page found here:
