[Solved]How can I make the menu text Choice bigger?

[stwkun]

I used

menu:
"op A"

"op B"

I want the text "op A" and "op B" appears bigger, How can i do it?

[OokamiKasumi]

I used

Code: Select all

menu:
  "op A":
        jump a
  "op B":
        jump b

I want the text "op A" and "op B" appears bigger, How can i do it?

Go to screens.rpy, and under screen choice: look for:

Code: Select all

    style menu_choice is button_text:
        clear

Change it to:

Code: Select all

    style menu_choice is button_text:
        size 24

You can add lots of other things too such as:

Code: Select all

    style menu_choice is button_text:
        font "fo/PALE1.TTF" # The /fo means that the font is in a folder called fo.
        size 24
        xalign 0.5
        yalign 0.5
        color "#cc9966" # text color
        outlines [(1, "#330000", 0, 0)] 
        hover_color "#ffffcc" #light
        hover_outlines [(1, "#663300", 0, 0)]

I didn't find statement like that, but I found something similar

Code: Select all

style.menu_choice.clear()

Any idea how to change with that? Because if I copy paste your code directly I'd get an error message

OokamiKasumi is using the new style system introduced in Ren'Py 6.17. If you're using an older version they won't work.

http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/style.htm ... -statement

style.menu_choice.clear() is a function for the older Python styling that removes the style properties from an object.

Huuuum, I use Ren'Py latest version (I think it's 6.17.3) but I still using old code because I want to stuck into something like this

Code: Select all

screen choice:

    window: 
        style "menu_window"        
        xalign 0.5
        yalign 0.5
        
        vbox:
            style "menu"
            spacing 10
            
            for caption, action, chosen in items:
                 if action:
                        if not chosen: 
                            button:
                                action action
                                style "menu_choice_button"
       
                                text caption style "menu_choice"
                        elif chosen == True:
                            button:
                                action action
                                style "menu_choice_chosen_button"
       
                                text caption style "menu_choice_chosen"
                

init -2 python:
    config.narrator_menu = True
    
    style.menu_window.set_parent(style.default)
    style.menu_choice.set_parent(style.button_text)
    style.menu_choice_button.set_parent(style.button)
    style.menu_choice_button.xminimum = int(config.screen_width * 0.97)
    style.menu_choice_button.xmaximum = int(config.screen_width * 0.97)
    style.menu_choice_button.yminimum = int(config.screen_width * 0.08)
    style.menu_choice_button.ymaximum = int(config.screen_width * 0.08)
    
    #Normal
    style.menu_choice_button.background =  Frame("gui/button_hover.png",20,20)
    style.menu_choice_button.hover_background =  Frame("gui/button_idle.png",20,20)
    style.menu_choice_chosen_button.background = Frame("gui/button_hover.png",20,20)
    style.menu_choice_chosen_button.hover_background = Frame("gui/button_idle.png",20,20)
        
    ##Modifies the Menu Choice's Text
    style.menu_choice.color = "FFFFFF"
    style.menu_choice_chosen.color = "999999"

basically the idea is to make the already chosen choice "grayed out" to make the player....well, easier to tell which route has been played.
Is there no other way to change the text size in my old code?
Or is there any way to implement the same idea into the new system of Python?

Very much appreciated

Uhm, I know it. My previous code has it written already.
With the new styles I applied, I successfully change the size of the text, however, I can't insert my frame (something like this on my previous code)

Code: Select all

style.menu_choice_button.background =  Frame("gui/button_hover.png",20,20)
style.menu_choice_button.hover_background =  Frame("gui/button_idle.png",20,20)
style.menu_choice_chosen_button.background = Frame("gui/button_hover.png",20,20)
style.menu_choice_chosen_button.hover_background = Frame("gui/button_idle.png",20,20)

I have no idea what kind of syntax I should write to insert the Frame.

Hm, after several days of absence from my work, suddenly I have some idea, why don't we just stuck to old and manual method? I can't believe this is so simple lol.

Code: Select all

    
    t "What would you choose?"
    menu:
        "{size=+5}Chase her{/size}":
            jump chase
        "{size=+5}Stay silent{/size}":
            jump stand
