This plugin fixes the in-game UI of Trackmania 2020 for aspect ratios wider than 16:9 by moving the UI elements back to the edge of the screen. Elements that appear while not driving are not the focus of this plugin, but MRs for them are certainly welcome. A fix for the animated main screen is provided by the Menu Background Chooser plugin by XertroV.

Exported function for use by other plugins

If you're writing a plugin of your own and want to support ultrawide aspect ratios, you can retrieve the current UI shift value (the amount of units the UI element should be moved/expanded by) as a float from this plugin:

# info.toml
[meta]
version = '1.0.0'

[script]
optional_dependencies = ['UltrawideUIFix']

// main.as
void Render() {
#if DEPENDENCY_ULTRAWIDEUIFIX
  UI::Text(tostring(UltrawideUIFix::GetUiShift()));
#else
  UI::Text('Not ultrawide');
#endif
}
