Suggestion: Main Window

Like Vanity Window, it's a Video Game Interface Element, so it should have a picture?

Dunno where to find a picture that calls a main window, a main window... Likely a game manual, or we could use non-Video Game examples.

Here's◊ a VideoGame.Gauntlet screenshot, as it's just a Vanity Window, plus the Main Window?

Although, this trope might not need a picture? And if it did, a picture like the one for Video Game Interface Elements would be better, as it has labels.

I honestly don't think this particular page needs a pic...this is such a fundamentally universal part of a video game that just knowing what it's talking about is illustrative enough.

I feel like this is chairs. A Video Game having a display isn't really a trope.

It's only got a handful of wicks too. 18 inbounds.

- If it's not a trope, I'd suggest changing it into an index for things like Heads-Up Display, Vanity Window, and other Interface Elements.

Perhaps an internal subindex, I dunno.

But that's more TRS turf?

True, but TRS is pretty backlogged. I'll go ahead and make a thread for it at least.

It's clearly a trope.

This is one case where the image would be clearer to have both Main Window and Vanity Window (and possibly other interface elements) in the same image and explain them all in one page, considering how interconnected they are.

- So, like Video Game Interface Elements', but Main Window based.

And so, this◊ screenshot from VideoGame.Gauntlet is not the best? But we can explain in-caption, no?

So, have we decided if this is a trope or not, and if it actually needs a picture?

TRS thread was opened at some point.

Table 'til TRS reaches a resolution?

I'm good with that.

Same.

Me Too!.
