Choice Menu Customization [SOLVED]

I searched the cookbook and the tutorials, but I haven't found what I'm looking for so here are my questions:

- How do I change the position of the choice menu? I want it to be on the bottom of the screen, and when it is showing, hide the textbox.

- How do I make it so there is only one row of buttons next to each other horizontally?

I'm using the New GUI type, I read the guide so I can change the images to small buttons that can fit next to each other on the screen, but the screen language is really confusing for me.
If you have an answer, please explain in a simple way because I'm no expert at all. Thanks!

Edit: Thanks to Daarkess it is now solved.
What he suggested:
For making buttons appear horizontally. Go to the 'screens.rpy' and find the choice screen. Then change all mentions of vbox (vertical box) to hbox (horizontal box).
After that all I did was delete yanchor and ypos and put

Code: Select all

style choice_hbox:
    xalign 0.5
    yalign 1.0
in screens.rpy

This solved the problem, thanks for the help.

You want to modify screen 'choice' and related styles. It is in screens.rpy.
when it is showing, hide the textbox.
Set config.narrator_menu to False in init.

I figured it would probably be there, but I have no idea at all what to do. :( I'm a complete noob, it's my first VN.
Set config.narrator_menu to False in init.
I'll do that, thank you!
