Seconded. Actually, it would be nice if you could select which to use by setting a config value, but I doubt it's that easy when readback requires a special type of Character.

This isn't quite the same, but you could probably play with it to get what you want. For instance, instead of ui.vbox() ... ui.close() you might use:

Can you have text appear onscreen one letter at a time at variable speeds? The only thing I can think of is to use the "{w= time }" text tag, and change the time between characters, "l{w=1}i{w=2}k{w=1}e{w=3} t{w=2}h{w=1}i{w=4}s{w=3}." I have some characters which I'd like to hav...

You could try something like this: init: python: # add a choice button to the list def menu_choice(text,label): ui.textbutton(text,clicked=ui.jumps(label)) # display a customized menu def custom_menu(choices, align=0.5): # choices is a list of tuples # align is 0.0, 0.5, 1.0 for left, center, right ...

I've changed the design a little (mostly aesthetic) and now have: def enter_button(pos,delay,d): start=(pos[0],1.0,pos[2],0.0) return MoveIn(start,pos,delay)(d) def leave_button(pos,delay,d): end=(pos[0],1.0,pos[2],0.0) return MoveOut(end,pos,delay)(d) slide_button_out =MoveTransition(0.5, leave_fac...

You'd want to use a Move, instead. Duly noted, also changed Position -> tuple. return Move(start, pos, delay)(d) So it was a matter of un-currying... Now I have def drop_button(pos,delay,d): start=(pos[0],0.0,pos[2],pos[3]) return MoveIn(start,pos,delay)(d) Which works fine, except that it seems to...

After a few trials (and errors), I've ended up with the following code: init python: def drop_button(pos,delay,d): start=Position(pos[0],0.0) return MoveTransition(start,pos,delay,child=d) #... config.end_splash_transition = MoveTransition(0.5, enter_factory=drop_button) But I receive this error mes...

You make it look so easy!!! XD The same technique could be used for any transition, then? I'd like to have, say, each button drop from behind the one above it. def drop_button(pos,delay,d): start=pos start.yposition-=d.height return Move(start,pos,delay,child=d) config.some_transition = MoveTransiti...

other than using LiveComposites, I'm not really sure how you would do animated menus

Ouch. Well, thanks. Guess I've got some reading to do.

P.S. Some pretty darn innovative stuff in MagiBou too.
