You want to directly access the transform object that is linked to the camera. Actually, that is a good idea. That was what I was trying to ask from the beginning. Perhaps not clearly, but... I believe you can get it using the following: trans = renpy.game.context().scene_lists.camera_transform[&qu...

Understand the confusion - I was using "current position" to mean "current position before applying the new transform." Your options #2 and #3 both require external tracking of the transform attributes. I was hoping to avoid that and use the "real" ones, since they are ...

I believe transforms does not use "starting position". It uses current properties, current st, at (timebase of the displayable), warper, and "final" properties to calculate new intermediate properties. For example: linear 1.0 xpos 100 at st = 0.5, it knows the last xpos ( trans....

My first version of the question had a lot of extraneous stuff in it. Let me distill it down: Here's a more succinct version. Clearer background: I want to dynamically alter the transform applied to the Ren'py camera. From Python. To create "pan and zoom" effects. renpy.show_layer_at with ...

I've been experimenting with renpy.show_layer_at to dynamically alter the "viewport" into a Movie so that I can effectively zoom and pan while it's playing. I can define a few transitions: transform return_full_screen: linear 1.0 xpos 0 ypos 0 zpos 0 transform t1: linear 1.0 xpos 100 ypos ...

This also works: image black = "#000" image abcd = Text("ABCD", size=100) image defg = Text("DEFG", size=100) image hijk = Text("HIJK", size=100) image lmno = Text("LMNO", size=100) transform angle: perspective True matrixanchor (0.0, 0.5) matrixtran...

OK, I see what you're doing - applying the rotation as the image is built, and then separately positioning it. Elegant. As I said, I think the way I was doing it, what was happening was that I was rotating and moving the camera around the image, rather than rotating the camera and then shifting the ...

I'm trying to understand how to make 3D transforms work the way I want them to. What I'm trying to do is to position text (as an image built using Text()) on the screen, with it rotated so that it appears to be going into the screen. Or, put another way, what I'd like to do is to position the anchor...

Oddly enough, "Composite" doesn't appear to be listed in the current 6.99.14.3 documentation, although it's in the 7.0 beta stuff. Guess it inadvertently got removed. (There are still one or two references to LiveComposite, but again no docs for it.)

Thanks. I was working on doing just that when I posted the question, however part of the point is that when one strays away from what is explicitly documented, one is potentially subject to, well, “undocumented behavior” which may be unintentional or subject to change. Thus, if this is the intended ...

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html#show-screen describes the show screen and hide screen statements. show screen is explicitly documented as taking a screen name as an argument, which makes perfect sense. hide screen just says "The hide screen statement is used to hide a screen that i...
