Images that Appear on Hover with Imagebuttons don't Disappear...

[ArizaLuca]

I have imagebuttons set up so that an image will appear when you hover over the button-- when I click on them, however, the image doesn't go away unless it's the 'Start' button and therefore starting the game-- is there a way to fix that issue?

[Andredron]

show your code, I know about 7 ways how to implement the appearance and everything is created differently (there are no telepaths)

[ArizaLuca]

Code: Select all

screen main_menu:
    tag menu 
    
    add "mainmenubganimated" 
    
    $ y=0
    
    imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_start_%s.png" xpos 0 ypos y focus_mask True action Start() hovered [Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/mainmenu ri hover.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff1
    $ y+=50
    if persistent.epilogue == True:
        imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_load_%s.png" xpos 0 ypos y focus_mask True action ShowMenu('load') hovered [ Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/mainmenu ri_old_hover.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff2
    else:
        imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_load_%s.png" xpos 0 ypos y focus_mask True action ShowMenu('load') hovered [ Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/mainmenu ri_old_hover_full.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff2
    $ y-=50
    imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_settings_%s.png" xpos -30 ypos y focus_mask True action ShowMenu('preferences') hovered [ Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/mainmenu gray.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff3
    ##imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_extras_%s.png" xpos 0 ypos y focus_mask True action Start('extras') hovered [ Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/mainmenu obsidianassassin hover.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff4
    $ y-=90
    imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_quit_%s.png" xpos 0 ypos y focus_mask True action Quit(confirm=True) hovered [ Show("gui_mainmenu", my_picture="images/none.png", my_tt_xpos=0, my_tt_ypos=0) ] unhovered [Hide("gui_mainmenu")] at main_eff5

The main_effs are just animations for when the screen first loads in.

your code is like working, have you tried to clear the variables in launcher renpy? since constant variables remember the events and after leaving the game?

[ArizaLuca]

Ah, no-- how do I do that?

[Andredron]

run renpy, select the desired project from the left side, then look at "navigating the script", the "clear variables" line will appear,

[ArizaLuca]

Ah... I don't see it. I just see Category with files, labels, defines, etc...

[Andredron]

My book tutorial open

find this section (You can enter and find this section in the search)

"Ориентирование в главном меню Launcher Ren’Py"

there to translate, build android, change the subject

there, clear the variables you need

[ArizaLuca]

Er... I don't understand Russian... can you translate it or explain how to do it a different way? I'm sorry.

[DannX]

This is only a guess, I may be wrong but I think when you click a button and show a new screen, the unhovered action is not triggered, so you should also add a Hide() action to your normal clicked action statements.

Code: Select all

# shortened to simplify
imagebutton auto "images/mainmenu_load_%s.png" action [ShowMenu('load'), Hide("gui_mainmenu")]

Eh... it wasn't incorrect, but it didn't get rid of the issue either.

Delete persistent

[ArizaLuca]

Doesn't get rid of the issue either.

How strange, I managed to replicate the issue but hiding the screen in each button did fix it for me, it could be something in your gui_mainmenu screen, if you can post it too so we can replicate your code as faithfully as possible.

[ArizaLuca]

Would this be in the screens file? In that case, I completely eradicated the main menu screen to create this one.
