When creating a menu system, would it be more efficient to create objs or images?

Also, would adding vars to images make them less efficient?

Images and screen objects have two different purposes. An image is an icon that only the player can see, while a screen object is an object that moves with the player's screen. Use the one that best fits your need.

They both fit my need. I'm trying to create menues in place of input boxes, but they create lag. I want to know which is less laggy. I also want to know if it's efficient to give images vars or not...

I think pretty much anything is less laggy than screen objects.

Trying to use images to create menus wouldn't be, if the player's viewpoint could change (i.e. through movement) while the menu was open.
