[Solved] Graying out a choice in the choice menu?

[ketskari]

Is there a way to gray out a menu choice option like the insensitive setting for a button in a screen?

Yes. You would need to modify choice screen to do that, though. One example:

Code: Select all

screen choice(items):
    style_prefix "choice"

    vbox:
        for i in items:
            if i.caption.startswith('!!'):
                textbutton i.caption.strip('!') action None
            else:
                textbutton i.caption action i.action

# Usage:

menu:
    'normal text':
        pass
    '!!disabled text':
        pass

Interesting idea--I'll play around with it. Thank you!

EDIT: That's more convenient than I thought. For others interested in something like this, I implemented it like so:

Code: Select all

        vbox:
            style_prefix "choice"
            for i in items:
                if i.caption.startswith('@'):
                    if route3 == True:
                        textbutton i.caption.strip('@') action i.action
                    else:
                        textbutton i.caption.strip('@') action None at faded_btn
                else:
                    textbutton i.caption action i.action

transform faded_btn:
    alpha .6
