I thought I have a relatively simple UI I want to set up. Just a dialog box with a name display on the top left above it, but I cannot manage to do it. Even just placing 2 text nodes under each other seems impossible, as my name display always appears under the larger dialog box, and as far as I understood, it should put stuff next to each other by default? Also I'm confused by the direction, the Row, Column and their reverses' don't seem to do anything, so I thought I'd change the order of spawning my 2 elements, but for some reason even then the name display is lower.

Make sure your project has picked up bevy 0.10.1 which was released a few days ago and has important UI bug fixes.
If that doesn't help, post some code. Bevy's UI layout does generally work.

I am on 0.10.1 so that's not it?
this is my whole ui setup
should look something like this (just missing the image behind the name display in the code still)

it should put stuff next to each other by default
That's not the case with PositionType::Absolute. That pretty much overrides all the flex stuff and just uses the position you specify (relative to the parent), with the default being 0, 0 if position isn't specified.

this bums me out immensely.. :D I was so confused why I had to set Absolute everywhere but after skimming over the examples it seemed to be the way to go.. I thought it worked as I wanted it to in those examples. thanks I will try Relative everywhere immediately :p
