Unfortunately this doesn't work for me. I started with using "bmfont" in double quotes, as written in the original post. Removing the double quotes was only a later experiment. I see that using a BMFont in Ren'Py is not advised. Although I haven't used it much, the downsides are apparent. ...

That was a good experiment - but it looks like a similar error. I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred. While running game code: File "game/script.rpy", line 28, in script pause File "renpy/common/000statements.rpy", line 455, in execute_pause renpy.pause() File "game...

I've created a BMFont that I want to use as the font for a text statement in screen language. The documentation explains how to do this: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/style_properties.html#style-property-font font - string A string giving the name of the font used to render text. For a TrueType fon...

Works like a charm.



I have more BMFont questions for you, but I will create a new post.

Thanks PyTom - it's an honest pleasure interacting with you after my 15 years of lurking.

I created my own BMFont using ShoeBox. https://i.imgur.com/Xs7jGTv.png I tried to include it in Renpy as explained in the documentation: https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/text.html?highlight=text#image-based-fonts init python: renpy.register_bmfont("bmfont", 50, filename="gui/bmfont.fnt&...

This works like a charm.

The one change necessary - while implementing Alex's code that I needed to use on "replace" instead of (or in addition to) on "show"

This is because all my phone screens use the same tag.

The latest code from Alex does what I wanted, so I'll play around with it.

Thanks!

Thanks Jeff - even if your experiments didn't pan out, this is useful data (now I know default_focus may not work) To better demonstrate the problem for anybody reading this thread, here's the phone from the Steins;Gate VN. https://i.imgur.com/icRljor.gif In this screen capture, I'm navigating via k...

Your example does work - thank you for this helpful code snippet. What I'm looking for could be a variant of what you provided, as it also involves some intuitive keyboard navigation. In the code you've provided, the textbutton "Button 1" will be stylized as selected when the "test_bu...

Thanks for the link, Alex For some reason this doesn't seem to work for me and I am on the latest Renpy 7.4.8. I've updated my code with the bare-basic example: init python: dummy_true_value = True and #action Show("phone_mailscreen") action [NullAction(), SetVariable("dummy_true_valu...

Background: I am attempting to create my own "phone trigger" functionality, wherein the MC can pull out his cellphone and do various cellphone stuff. Here is my approach. When you press a key to open the phone, a new phone screen will appear with the phone's main menu. On the phone's main ...
