title: How to left-align CCMenuItems?
body: <h3>Situation:</h3>
  
  <p>Using cocos2d's CCMenuItem and CCMenu classes I am creating a menu in the manner shown below.</p>
  
  <h3>Problem:</h3>
  
  <p>The menu items are center-aligned. I want them to be left-aligned (<em>Meaning the x-coordinate of say the first letter of each item would be about the same</em>)</p>
  
  <h3>Question(s):</h3>
  
  <p>How do I do left-align CCMenuItems? *<em>Bonus points if you can tell me how to also left-align multiple CCLabelTTF items to a given x coordinate..</em></p>
  
  <pre><code>CCMenuItemFont *newGame = [CCMenuItemFont itemFromString:@"New Game" target:self selector:@selector(onNew:)];
  CCMenuItemFont *loadGame = [CCMenuItemFont itemFromString:@"Load Game" target:self selector:@selector(onLoad:)];
  CCMenuItemFont *options = [CCMenuItemFont itemFromString:@"Options" target:self selector:@selector(onOptions:)];
  
  CCMenu *menu = [CCMenu menuWithItems: newGame, loadGame, options, nil];
  
  menu.position = ccp(160.0, 220.0);
  [menu alignItemsVerticallyWithPadding: 28.0];
  [self addChild:menu z:1];
  </code></pre>
