So I've made a custom screen for a charater and put the textbox inside a frame and set the yanchor to the bottom of the screen like so:
Code: Select all
screen player(who, what):
style_prefix "say"
window:
id "window"
if who is not None:
window:
xpadding 10
style "namebox"
text who id "who"
frame:
xpadding 10
ypadding 10
yanchor 1.0
background Frame("gui/textbox.png")
text what id "what"
And it works great except that the namebox is still stuck in place, I want to display the namebox just above the textbox so when there is a linebreak and the textbox increases in height the namebox will move up to compensate for it.

you can put both your text and namebox in a vbox
as the dialogue shrink the box shrinks and the namebox moves to the right position
