SFML - How to create a main menu?

Well, there are multiple ways of doing it. The crude way would be to show a picture, and when in that menu mode, check for mouse clicks within certain X/Y locations for "button presses".

A more elegant way would be to create Button classes that give you notifications on being pressed and have the abililty to be drawn.

An even better method might be to use previously created UI methods developed for SFML. Check out the SFML Project forum at sfml-dev.org and look for different GUI's there.

Quite a few discussions out there already.

Depends on how you want to do it. You could always make it from scratch which is fairly simple or you can follow the tutorials for intergrating one of the GUI libraries into your project.

I want to make it from scratch, from just simply using the sf::Shapes class. I don't want to get fancy because this is my first time making main menu.

I'm thinking to use the sf::Event::MouseButton::x and sf::Event::MouseButton::y, passing them to a function from a class called MenuButton,

and then make an if statement with condition that checks if the mouse cursor is on the button's x and y locations.

I bet there's more easier way this this...

And sorry I already did some googling but couldn't find the material that I need.

EDIT:

Actually I can use getPosition() too...
