Is there a way to swap Auto-Forward Speed around?

[magicfindsheep]

Hello,

I'm new to the forum and definitely new to Renpy. I've kind of made a visual novel that is set to completion soon but I would like to know how to swap the Auto-Forward Speed?

This is because the Artwork for Auto Forward has Slow on the Left hand side when the bar is empty and Fast on the Right Hand side.

The current version of Renpy I'm using is renpy-6.99.4-sdk

I do not wish to update it at this current point because I am well aware that if I start coding on a newer engine, all the codes in this version might be messed up and the deadline is really soon.

[EDIT] there was one thread out there in a quick search that says that I had to tamper with some file in the renpy folder thing. Am wondering if it's possible not to? Or if i change it then everyone who gets the working version of the VN that i made, gets my changes as well?

Do help me out.

Thanks in advance!

You can give the bar the bar_invert True property.

But you might as well fix the graphics, since there's a misspelling in it.

Hello and thanks for the suggestion.

However, where do I put the bar_invert at?

Will it affect the other bars as well?

Look through your screens.rpy file, find the bar you want to invert, and add the invert code like so:

Code: Select all

            frame:
                style_group "pref"
                has vbox

                label _("Auto-Forward Time")
                bar value Preference("auto-forward time") bar_invert True

                if config.has_voice:
                    textbutton _("Wait for Voice") action Preference("wait for voice", "toggle")

I was also having this problem and the "bar_invert" you suggested was exactly what I was looking for and it worked great. Thank you for the help!
