I don't think there's a topic for this, so how do you center dialogue text in the text box?

Like this:

centered "Hello there."

you don't have to define it.

thanks, but 'centered' puts it in the middle of the screen. I should've made it more clear - what I want is in the middle of the textbox, in the center of a line.

I don't knoe if there's something like that. ;_;

Simply go to your screens.rpy and locate the say screen section. Copy and paste this in at the first instance of has vbox.

Code: Select all

has vbox:
    style "say_vbox"
    xalign 0.5 #centers textbox
if who:
    text who id "who" xalign 0.5 #centers name
text what id "what" text_align 0.5

See if that works for you.

It works! Thanks so much.

edit:
I'm sure it's an easy fix, but how could I make the second/third/etc line of this dialogue centered as well?

No need to hack the say screen. You can do it all with styles, as Tom explained here: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... 78#p392578
