Thank you for the reply!
I really just want my main menu to be a little png background, a title in a nice box floating a little above a nice separate box with the buttons. Something pretty much like this random menu I found on google, but shifted up a little, so that that the top of the button box is at mid-sceen:

My menu has the right pieces, but the components are filling the leftover space rather than staying at the size I set.
I had actually tried using 3 different containers set inside a jme3 node, but it was a pain to position properly, even after I wrote a class to get reliable relative screen sizes.
I do agree that I’m most likely after a Layout, I’m just honestly at a loss as to how to work it (it definitely ain’t css grids lol).
I’m thinking it’s a little similar to this other post, where you mentioned disabling the stretch:
But with that, I wouldn’t even know how to position things like I want them.
For example, in css, I would set up a grid (let’s say 10x10 to make it easy), and assign the grid container the background (similar to this), and then move grid children by setting
grid-column-start
grid-column-end
grid-row-start
grid-row-end
And like that I could hover the Title like i want by setting (still assuming 10x10 grid):
grid-column-start: 3
grid-column-end: 7
grid-row-start: 2
grid-row-end: 4
And the button container I can set like:
grid-column-start: 3
grid-column-end: 7
grid-row-start: 5
grid-row-end: 8
I hope the css example helps out.
