Wait, I thought that was what we wanted to do! Heh, am I confused again?
(I should add, I don't see right off how kana mode could work with nvl mode -- I had actually written my own 'novel mode' using window styles when I tried this last. But I bet there's a way... or maybe I'm the only one who finds the typing effect soothing?)
OH! I see what you mean, monele -- with an inconsistent flashy-arrow, the player might get confused when to click and when not to?
I never figured out how to do line breaks and such, myself, for smooth text that goes on different lines...
Heh, and I'm kind of weirded out now that I've looked at the image pheriannath posted more closely -- one of the characters in the game when I was first experimenting with a novel-mode effect was named 'Kaede' too! Spooky.
