Right now, Ren'Py only supports rectangular regions for focus. It's actually annoyingly difficult to support non-rectangular regions when you're automatically determining the focus order for the keyboard and joystick, which is why I've resisted doing so. hrm, does Renpy have an equivalent of a tabo...

You've found a bug in Ren'Py, which will be fixed in 5.6.5. Sorry about that, and thanks for reporting this. No biggie from my perspective. Glad to help. (I always like specific explanations what's not working when someone else has a technical problem for me, so I try to apply the same principle to...

Howdy! Recently, I wanted to have a displayable character image move across the screen while changing size. "No problem!" says I, "while FactorZoom is the suggested method for dealing with character images, the plain zoom function explicitly supports non-opaque elements, I bet it can ...

There's a program called PrimoPDF that lets you print a web page (html I guess) or a Word document into a virtual printer that converts the page into .pdf. I'm not sure how it'll aggregate a snapshot of the wiki, though. Which works very well for that, but I kinda wish the Wiki had a print-settings...

Well, you can go and give it the start parameter, which will slow down the start a bit, getting rid of that "first wave" effect. But really, the only way around this would be to write a new factory. (Or if you can wait a week or two, I can add it to the next release of Ren'Py.) Ooh, given...

Hey-oh! Working on some middle-elaborate functions for some cut-sceney stuff, which includes a couple underwater shots with bubbles floating up. Except- they start at the bottom of the window, then move up. Drat! Is there a way to have them begin randomly all over the window, or say 'pre-roll the pa...

So, in order to manually focus an element, I would have to set not just the focus group, but also the id number, which renpy has no way of doing. (Just as well I just wanted to de-focus it then.) Not really... what you do is to set default=True on only the element you want focused. The thing is, im...

It's fairly obscure what it's doing. Basically, Ren'Py has an idea called a "focus group". IIRC, by default, all displayables are in a focus group named after their layer. Inside a focus group, displayables are indexed by the order in which they are added. So, assigning the focus does not...

Try giving the imagemap a focus='imagemap' parameter, to make it use a different focus group. That would probably work. $ choice = ui.imagemap(..., focus='imagemap') *blinks* :wink: Okay, that works... but WHY does it work? My code currently reads- $ result = renpy.imagemap("sl_night.png"...

Hey, I have a question/confusion issue with imagemap. I notice that when the imagemap first comes up, the first 'term' (or whatever) is initially highlighted/showing, and then immediately snaps off as soon as you move your mouse. (So for the demo file, when selectign a character, Eileen has the yell...

Pardon my apalling ignorance, but by 'just implemented' do you mean, 'it's on the beta, and will eventually creep into release versions?'

So there is no way of doign this just now.

(Not complaining just trying to get the lingo down.)

Howdy, I'm returning to Renpy, about a year after first puttign it down (it's funt o work with) and I've got a problem with the Character declaration. See, I'm using the show_side_image option to represent an off-screen speaker (which, due to the format of my project, will creep up... a lot.) That w...
