If you want to change the outlook of textbox (position on the screen, text size or color, etc.), you should change characters properties. Like

Code: Select all

$ narrator = Character(None, window_left_margin=160)
this will make narrators words appear 160 pixels to the right from left side of the screen
Also, you can read about characters customization
