# GUI functions/classes

The tiny pillow argument passed to your plugin's functions has a variable named `gui`  which contains ready-made functions to speed up the plugin-making process. These functions are:

* `tpil.gui.carouselMenu(tpil:tinyPillow)`&#x20;
  * A left-and-right scrollable menu that can show lots of text at once, as well as how many items are in the menu
* `tpil.gui.keyLegend(tpil:tinyPillow, legend:dict)`
  * A overlay for the UI that shows what each key does (that's why it's called a key legend)
  * For example, if you want to show the user that the key `left`  is used to go back, you'd pass the dictionary `{"left": "Go Back"}` to the `legend` parameter.
* `tpil.gui.setFloat(tpil:tinyPillow)`
  * Used to allow the user to set precise floats, editable by each place value.
  * This is depreciated - you shouldn't use this in your code unless absolutely necessary.
* `tpil.gui.slider(tpil:tinyPillow, caption:str)`
  * Used to enter numbers, from a specific range of numbers set by the kwargs `minimum` and `maximum`
* `tpil.gui.screenConsole(tpil:tinyPillow)`
  * Used as a terminal console, so you can add and clear text, etc.
  * Words do not wrap (because my code sucks)
