What am I missing here?
Pretty sure you can't use conditions in styles, which is why I used it in the say screen directly
Ohh, I see! That's where I kept getting confused.

IT WORKS!! Thanks again so much!!

Re: Reposition text box temporarily?

Here's one simple way: default textbox_top = False # in your say screen, find the window line and add the condition. window: id "window" if textbox_top: yalign 0.0 ## label start: "Bottom." $textbox_top = True "Top." $textbox_top = False "Bottom again." Okay, I'm running into an issue with this sol...

[SOLVED] Reposition text box temporarily?

Hello! Simple question, but I've spent a few hours trying to wrap my head around the related answers I've seen and I'm just not getting it. I'd like to temporarily have the text box display itself at the top of the screen instead of the bottom, and then move it back down again later. In gui.rpy, the...

Re: [SOLVED] Playing a movie displayable at multiple speeds (or framerates?)

I'm gonna mark the thread as solved even though a definitive answer didn't come up per se. Sounds like the answer is "no" or "not worth it," but of course if anyone else has anything to add, feel free. To those who answered, thanks again for your insight!

Re: Playing a movie displayable at multiple speeds (or framerates?)

Python is not friendly with video files, it’s easier for you to split the video frame by frame, and write animations as a separate picture Yeah, I already have it split up into frames and defined as an image sequence; I tried combining said frames into a movie to see if that'd be cleaner (fewer fil...

Re: Playing a movie displayable at multiple speeds (or framerates?)

Here is a small example that lets our hero train (animation-loop) and while he hits the sandbag a sound is played. I don't have time to draw images but the code snippet should show how to do it. Very cool! I've heard about playing sounds within animation loops, but haven't gotten around to it yet. ...

Re: Playing a movie displayable at multiple speeds (or framerates?)

Not too long ago I experimented with the same considerations and did not come to any useful result. My solution was to convert the images (animations) to .webp format, as it is a very good space-saving alternative to transparent .png images and is supported by renpy. https://developers.google.com/s...

[SOLVED] Playing a movie displayable at multiple speeds (or framerates?)

Apologies in advance, because I get a little confused when it comes to framerates, refresh rates, and animation speeds. Currently, I've got animations that rely on an image sequence with a delay between each image (or frame), and I'm able to adjust this delay to make the animation go slower or faste...

[SOLVED] Adding Outlines to the TINY gui text elements?

You know the "Back - History - Skip - Auto - Save (etc)" tiny options along the bottom of a default Ren'Py game? Is there a way to give those text elements an outline? I've been searching for a while, and I'm just not sure what style parameter would do it. I know that this will change their color: d...

Re: Queue animated image after a looping animated image?

Alright, I eventually set up a slider to really help test the problem, and I think this is the most notable thing I found: When preferences.gl_framerate = None : lowering the "pause time" really does work gradually - there's just a limit to how fast it can go. (I do not know why). Whereas when the f...

Re: Queue animated image after a looping animated image?

Variable Speed Animation: (Yes, this *Should* solve your variable speed animation question) Rather than using "pause", use "function" toggling a boolean to dictate block/unblock... Right, so the solution I got last time also involved using the "function" keyword to build the animation. It was built...

Re: Queue animated image after a looping animated image?

Hmmm, I'm not sure if that's a feasible solution for what I had in mind... I didn't want to get off-topic, but some context is probably necessary. Truth is, I'm still stumped on a question I asked a week or two ago about changing an animation's speed seamlessly (i.e. not needing to start it over fir...

[SOLVED]Queue animated image after a looping animated image?

This might be a little complicated to describe. So, let's say I have two images that are defined as looping animations: image Animation1: "Frame1.jpg" 0.04 "Frame2.jpg" 0.04 "Frame3.jpg" 0.04 "Frame4.jpg" 0.04 ## etc. repeat image Animation2: "OtherFrame1.jpg" 0.04 "OtherFrame2.jpg" 0.04 "OtherFrame...
