Ok, now this is so embarassing because I know it's a stupid question about an overly discussed issue, but still...

How do I change the font of a specific hbox/vbox:
As of now, it of course takes the "default" font as specified in options.rpy.
I've tried to define a new "vbox_style"...style: nothing.
I've tried to style.say_vbox.font="font.ttf" but nothing: it says there is no say_vbox.
I've red the docs but either I've missed out something or I've tried customizations that had no effect at all.

Please point me in the right direction...

here is the answer in the documentation:

Thanks trooper... :facepalm:

The only thing is, it only works if I put the font into the main game folder, as it doesn't accept it in the format: I know I'm approaching to this as if it was html, sorry...

Use style_group
You can't define the font of the boxes because the boxes are only containers, they dont have the font property.
With style_group you can define the font (and size, color, etc.) of the text elements contained inside a box.

If you have only one text element inside the box, dont need the style, apply the properties directly:

Code: Select all

text "bla bla" size 14 color "#f00" font "myfont.ttf"

Yes that's what I meant and what I needed, sorry for not being more specific.

This works: ...while this is not:

Chances are that I'm gonna use style_group, tho. There is more than one text line and I'd better apply some style at once...

Delete the quotes:
{font=fonts/myfont.ttf}

Omg, I thought I've tried that already!

it worked, thanks!
