How to I change character's name position?

#1 Post by nanashine » Wed Dec 06, 2017 2:30 pm

I wanted to place the name of the speaking character a little above from where it's normaly located.
Since I changed the texbox, I looks weird. I wanted to place it a little higher.
Thanks :)

If you are using the latest Ren'Py, simply go to gui.rpy and change the value of gui.name_xpos and gui.name_ypos (Line 107 & Line 108)

And how do I change the position of those options "History", "Skip", "Save", etc. They are at the bottom of the screen and horizontal. I wanted to put them vertically and at the right corner.

Search for something relevant ( maybe "Q.Save" ) in screens.rpy...

It should find "screen quick_menu" ... alter that layout how you want.
(note there are a couple though, normal and 'touch' variants)

In gui.rpy, alter values relevant to the 'styles' pointed at in that part of screens.rpy
(especially note the 'style_prefix "quick" ' bit ... maybe search for 'quick' in gui.rpy ...)
