I encountered this problem while messing around with the namebox and textbox graphics...
It seems like the namebox is displayed behind the textbox, but what I want is for the namebox to overlap the textbox.
This was my original idea:
But when I programmed it into Ren'Py, this is what came up (The namebox is a separate image here):
Is there any way to change the layering of this?
(Also, another smaller issue: Is there any way to make the namebox a fixed size? Even when I specify the xminimum and yminimum, it seems that the length still changes according to the length of the name displayed.)

You can tweak the ordering by editing screens.rpy, and putting the code for the who window after the code for the what window. You can set the minimum size of a window using the xminimum style property.
