Set 'dissolve' transition as default transition

[Eliont]

Hello and good time of day.

show event1 at truecenter with dissolve <-- is there any way don't write 'with dissolve' in each statement?
If i want instant, i will wriite 'with None'.

May by it possible with http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/config.ht ... h_callback but i can't figure out how.

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure how it would be done, but I think it needs to be attached to Show somehow - not sure if it's possible to redefine something like 'show' with user-defined statements, but if so that's a possibility - alternatively, using a renamed version of 'show' that just comes with an implicit dissolve might be a better way.

The reason you wouldn't want to just blanket inject dissolve transitions everywhere with the callback is that implicit 'withs' are called in a lot of places, like for every block of text, and it ends up not producing the results you want anyway.

I agree that we want something like this because I find myself using dissolve for expression changes and things like that and needing to 'with dissolve' everything is a pain.

EDIT: Oh, I forgot about config.show. Interested to see if it and renpy.transition can be combined to get the desired effect..

EDIT 2: Okay, this is a start:

Code: Select all

init python:
    def replacement_show(*args, **kwargs):
        renpy.transition(dissolve)
        return renpy.show(*args, **kwargs)
    config.show = replacement_show

It is not a complete solution. In particular, the text box does a dissolve fade-in when show is used. Ideally the dissolve in will take place before and the text box will just appear. Not currently sure how to do this.

Thanks, it works.

Code: Select all

    def replacement_show(*args, **kwargs):
        renpy.transition(Dissolve(1))
        renpy.show(*args, **kwargs)
        renpy.pause(1.5, hard=True)
        return 
    config.show = replacement_show
    
    def replacement_hide(*args, **kwargs):
        renpy.transition(Dissolve(1))
        renpy.hide(*args, **kwargs)
        renpy.pause(1.5, hard=True)
        return 
    config.hide = replacement_hide  

But textbox don't dissolve - it appear and disappear instantly. Is there any way to apply transition to window?

You will need Ren'Py 6.17 or later.
