Customizing the Preferences Menu?

#1 Post by SweetPeaGaming »

Hey! I'm just starting out with Ren'py and I couldn't really find anything on how to customize the preferences menu.

I want to get rid of the boxes and add these images instead that I have been working on. They would replace the boxes, and I would like to customize how the preferences appear.

Thank you.

There's a detailed tutorial in the COOKBOOK section of the forum.
Go Here: Customizing Menus. Read that.

Thank you so much! This helped, but now I'm having some trouble. I don't know if it's because the image is too small or what, but my image that I chose as the frame background isn't lined up with the text.
