[Solved] Updating screen background on button hover

[Keul]

I'd like to update the background of a screen when a button is hovered.

the hovered property can trigger an action when the button is hovered/unhovered. But I don't know how to change the background of a screen with an action

I've tried this way but it doesn't work.

Code: Select all

screen chapter_select:
    if testbgcs = 0:
        add "images/interface/images/interface/base.png"
    if testbgcs = 1:
        add "images/interface/images/interface/opt1.png"
    imagebutton auto "images/interface/main_menu/start_%s.png" action Return(value=1) hovered SetScreenVariable("testbgcs", 1) unhovered SetScreenVariable("testbgcs", 0)
    
label test:
    scene test1 
    "test1"
    call screen chapter_select

thank you for helping

That's a syntax error, but replacing = with == in both places should yield working code.

Code is working now ... I've made PyTom lose time because of stupid things ...

I was hesitating if the comparator operator was "=" or "==" because I was using some shitty language that use = for comparison last days T_T.

Should spend more time on debug before posting in the forum...

Working code for those interested:

Code: Select all

init -2:
    $testbgcs = 0 #you can remove $ sign if in python block

screen chapter_select:
    if testbgcs == 0:
        add "images/interface/base.png"
    if testbgcs == 1:
        add "images/interface/opt1.png"
    imagebutton auto "images/interface/main_menu/start_%s.png" action Return(value=1) hovered SetScreenVariable("testbgcs", 1) unhovered SetScreenVariable("testbgcs", 0)
   
label test:
    scene test1
    "test1"
    call screen chapter_select
