Ask questions about one topic per thread, and use a descriptive subject. "NotImplemented error in script.rpy" is a good subject, "Tom's problems" is not. Remember to include all of traceback.txt or error.txt when reporting a problem, as well as the relevant lines of script. Use the [code] tag to format scripts.

I know this is a really small thing, but I added a menu button (an imagebutton) that remains on screen during the game that toggles skip, and I'm wondering if it's possible to keep it "greyed out" (a.k.a. show the hover image) when skip is occurring after clicking the button and vice versa. Just an aesthetic thing. :'D

Code:
if config.skipping:
    #what you want your button to look like while skipping
else:
    #what you want your button to look like while not skipping

Put that where your imagebutton is now and make 2 versions of the same button (one where the hover graphic is the idle graphic).

I don't get it very well. What exactly is placed between the if config.skipping and else: ? Sorry if it annoys the one who asked it the first time, but I really would like to know.

lol ... I was happy when Niki understood and I didn't have to explain!!

Look at this cookbook code. As Niki said, she was using an imagebutton. I didn't put anything in the code because what button you use will so radically differ from each game. It may even be a textbutton, not an imagebutton.

Code:
init python:

    # Give us some space on the right side of the screen.
    style.window.right_padding = 100

    def toggle_skipping():
        config.skipping = not config.skipping

    show_button_game_menu = True

    def button_game_menu():
       
        if show_button_game_menu:

            # to save typing
            ccinc = renpy.curried_call_in_new_context

            ui.vbox(xpos=0.99, ypos=0.98, xanchor='right', yanchor='bottom')
           
            if config.skipping:
                ui.imagebutton("skip_hover.png","skip_hover.png", clicked=toggle_skipping)
            else:
                ui.imagebutton("skip_idle.png","skip_hover.png", clicked=toggle_skipping)
               
            ui.imagebutton("save_idle.png","save_hover.png", clicked=ccinc("_game_menu_save"))
            ui.imagebutton("load_idle.png","load_hover.png", clicked=ccinc("_game_menu_load"))
            ui.imagebutton("prefs_idle.png","prefs_hover.png", clicked=ccinc("_game_menu_preferences"))
            ui.close()


    config.window_overlay_functions.append(button_game_menu)

Put it anywhere you want.
