if side_image with styles

[Pierrou]

Hi !

I'm trying to change the style if there's a side_image or not.

We have 3 text-boxes.
1) Narrator
2) Character (without side_image)
3) Character (with side_image)

I wanted to do something like :

in options.rpy :

Code: Select all

    style.window.background = "image/box/box1.png"

in screens.rpy (screen say)

Code: Select all

    if side_image:
        add SideImage() xpos 44 ypos 398
        $ style.window.background = "image/box/box3.png"
        $ style.say_who_window.left_padding = 150
    else:
        $ style.window.background = "image/box/box2.png"
        $ style.say_who_window.left_padding = 60

I've no error but it doesn't work... When i start a game, i can see the side_image if i put one in script.rpy but the style doesn't change. BUT when i start the game another time, the style is now changed x) So i have the left_padding for all my sentences...

How can i do something like that ?

Thank you

I would suggest you to change the dialogue boxes and padding using your character definitions. Something like:

1) Narrator

Code: Select all

define narrator = Character(None, window_background="box1.png")

2) Character (without side_image)

Code: Select all

define e = Character("Eileen", window_background="box2.png")

3) Character (with side_image)

Code: Select all

define e = Character("Eileen", image="eileen", window_background="box3.png", window_left_padding=220)

Thank you to answer me ^^

2) Character (without side_image)

Code: Select all

define e = Character("Eileen", window_background="box2.png")

3) Character (with side_image)

Code: Select all

define e = Character("Eileen", image="eileen", window_background="box3.png", window_left_padding=220)

It's not possible to do that, isn't it ? e is already used for the Eileen (without side_image).

I used this before but i had

Character (without side_image)

Code: Select all

define e = Character("Eileen", window_background="box2.png")

Character (with side_image)

Code: Select all

define es = Character("Eileen", image="eileen", window_background="box3.png", window_left_padding=220)

but in the script i'll have to do :

Code: Select all

e "hello i don't have any side image"
es angry "i have a side image"

it will be so hard to not do an error... That's why I don't wanted to declare all my characters twice I don't understand why we can't just do "if there is a side_image you apply this style"

EDIT :
You'll maybe understand better with my scripts :

characters.rpy (just one character)

Code: Select all

init:
    $ aki = Character("Akira",
        voice_tag="akira",
        ctc="ctc_blink", ctc_pause="ctc_blink",
        what_prefix='"', what_suffix='"',
        image="akira")

screen say

Code: Select all

screen say:

    default side_image = None
    default two_window = True

    window:
        id "window"

        has vbox:
            style "say_vbox"

            text what:
                id "what"
                line_spacing 10

    if side_image:
        add SideImage() xpos 44 ypos 398
        $ style.say_what_window.left_padding = 150
        $ style.window.background = "image/box/box3.png"
    else:
        $ style.say_what_window.left_padding = 60
        $ style.window.background = "image/box/box2.png"

    if who:
        window:
            style "say_who_window"

            text who:
                id "who"
                xalign .5

You are right. My bad. I just forgot to rename the second character. As far as I know, styles can only be changed at init time. Maybe someone else can find another solution.

Styles are not changeable after init time. You have to have two different styles initialized and applied. I haven't tested this code, and I don't know if side_image (the screen variable) actually indicates whether or not there is a side image since the else refers to a SideImage() which I believe is actually the side image that gets shown, but in concept, I think you should do something like the following:

Code: Select all

init:
    style sideimagestyle is say_window:
        background "blah"
        left_padding 150
    style normalstyle is say_window:
        background "blah"
        left_padding 60

screen say(who, what, side_image=True, 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"
            if side_image:
                style "sideimagestyle"
            else:
                style "normalstyle"
