Consistent UI screen styles

I would like to see a menu using a uniform! Actually there are PopUps and Message boxes used in the main menu, as well as in-game. This looks horrible if one screen is transparent and the second one is using a strict gray-tone!

change the background to transparent and center the titles as well as possible to underline them;

- engine:videoMenuScreen
- engine:inputSettingsScreen
- in-game skills screen
- in-game inventory/backpack screen
- (engine:previewWorldScreen) just the right part
- (engine:selectGameScreen) maybe
- core:inventoryHUD bar as well as the crosshair

change the background to strict gray;

- engine:midTestScreen
- engine:addServerPopup

create bordered screen for;

• engine:enterTextPopup // if used at all, because engine:enterUsernamePopup looks better!

fine looking screen are;

- engine:joinGameScreen
- engine:createGameScreen
- engine:selectModsScreen
- engine:loadingScreen
- engine:creditsScreen
- engine:changeBindingPopup
- in-game journal

There are also some other issues

• screenshot size options are sorted in a not logical way
• screenshot format should be png by standard
• drop-down menu on “create game”-screen are not viewable in window-mode
• “Play” and “Back” button are also displaced in window-mode
• the title “experimental” on the “Player-Settings”-Screen is centered and do have a “:” at the end (whyever)
• there is no space between the right and left side of the text on “Select Modules…”-screen this cause failed space with other translations
• the text-field for the sound-settings is bit to short for some languages

Hi @Translator5 thanks for the detailed suggestion 😃

Just to be totally sure, what you’re saying here is to make the various UI screens look more consistent right? So uniform in appearance.

Marking this bite-sized since it seems like some pieces would be easy to tweak at 😃

Hey @Joseph5610 - could you go ahead and submit your changes as a PR? That way we can add line comments and merge it when ready. It sounds like it might already be there 😃

Some of the affected screens have been changed since this issue. Anything you can’t find or think is no longer valid is probably correct. My reading of the OP here seems to suggest underlining would be a possible nicety, but not something currently in place. We might want to skip that as underlining doesn’t work in some character scripts.
