[Solved] How to make name box be in front of dialogue box?

[Lockvia]

I'm having a problem with the name box and the dialogue box in the quick menu. For some reason the the name box is hiding behind the dialogue box. I'm not sure what to do to make the name box sit in front of the dialogue box.

Here's my current code in Options.rpy:

Code: Select all

style.say_who_window.background = "gui/namebox.png"
style.window.background = "gui/dialoguebox.png"

Try setting say_window.background instead of window.background.

Just tried it and now the name is behind the name box.

Have you modified your say screen? Otherwise I can't think of any reason why changing window to say_window would move the say_who_window text.

I think I did.

Here's my current code:

Code: Select all

# Say

# Screen that's used to display adv-mode dialogue.
# http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_special.html#say
screen say:

    # Defaults for side_image and two_window
    default side_image = None
    default one_window = False

    # Decide if we want to use the one-window or two-window variant.
    if not one_window:

        # The two window variant.
        vbox:
            style "say_two_window_vbox"

            if who:
                window:
                    style "say_who_window"

                    text who:
                        id "who"

            window:
                id "window"

                has vbox:
                    style "say_vbox"

                text what id "what"

    else:
        # The one window variant.
        window:
            id "window"

            has vbox:
                style "say_vbox"

            if who:
                text who id "who"

            text what id "what"


    # If there's a side image, display it above the text.
    if side_image:
        add side_image
    else:
        add SideImage() xalign 0.0 yalign 1.0

    # Use the quick menu.
    use quick_menu

And now that I've changed it back to the original code it looks like the screenshot. Here's the original code:

Code: Select all

# Say

# Screen that's used to display adv-mode dialogue.
# http://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screen_special.html#say
screen say(who, what, side_image=None, two_window=False):

    # Decide if we want to use the one-window or two-window variant.
    if not two_window:

        # The one window variant.
        window:
            id "window"

            has vbox:
                style "say_vbox"

            if who:
                text who id "who"

            text what id "what"

    else:

        # The two window variant.
        vbox:
            style "say_two_window_vbox"

            if who:
                window:
                    style "say_who_window"

                    text who:
                        id "who"

            window:
                id "window"

                has vbox:
                    style "say_vbox"

                text what id "what"

    # If there's a side image, display it above the text.
    if side_image:
        add side_image
    else:
        add SideImage() xalign 0.0 yalign 1.0

    # Use the quick menu.
    use quick_menu

You need to make it a two window, one for the namebox and one for the text said. So you will have to cut those in half and re position them i had the same problem.
So under here you will define the placement of your name box:

Code: Select all

                has vbox:
                    style "say_vbox"
                    ypos 20 #Change to your number
                    xpos 20 #Change to your number

and here you will define the placement of you text in the name box:

Code: Select all

                    text who:
                        id "who"
                        ypos 20 #Change to your number

And set your screen to true for two_window:

Code: Select all

screen say(who, what, side_image=None, two_window=True):

At least i think.

Thank you for all the replies. I ended up changing my UI design and it worked!
