Say_who_window and the text box
Forgive my incredible noobness, I just started with Renpy. I'm using a custom textbox that has room at the top for a name during dialogue. I used the say_who_window to create a 2nd box for the name, made the window blank (So It's just a floating name) and I placed it where it needs to be. However, the name (say_who_window) ends up BEHIND the main text box, and therefore, obscured by the very spot it's supposed to be in. Can I make it so the say who window is above the textbox or is there another more obvious solution to my problem I'm completely missing?
Re: Say_who_window and the text box
If you don't need a separate background for the name box, I don't think you even need to mess with two window. The following is a relatively simple way to use the one window variant to do what you want.
Code: Select all
if who:
text who id "who" xpos 50 ypos 50 # adjust numbers as necessary
else:
text " " # ensures that there's a blank space even if there is no speaking character

Although I had to hunt a bit for where to insert this, it worked perfectly. Thank you very much. I knew there had to be a simpler way to do it, but I'm still trying to get a good grasp on the fundamentals. Thanks again!
