[SOLVED] Automatic scaling of dialogue box to the width of text?

[TAEKO]

I have been exploring the screens.rpy of a project then I kind of suddenly wondered if it is possible to have an automatic scaling dialog box that depends on the width of the text inside it, more like FE:Sacred Stones style.


This is the kind of effect I was hoping to achieve ^

And for some reasons, the width only changes when I change the xmaximum...?

Code: Select all

style windowL:
    background Frame("dialogue_box_L", 27, 24,40,34)
    padding (0,0,0,34)
    xalign 0.0
    xoffset 350
    yoffset -120
    yalign 0.5
    xminimum 138
    xmaximum 450
    xsize None
    yminimum 20
    ymaximum 138

Delete xmaximum and xsize.

Delete xmaximum and xsize.

It didn't seem to work... The window only stretched to the whole screen.
I'm comparing it to the code of the (self-resizing) namebox with no success :<

Did you tried xfill an yfill with False? https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/style_pr ... erty-xfill

I don't know where you're getting xfill from, but if it's stretching to the whole screen then I guess it's there somewhere. Set it to False.

Update: This is fixed. I changed the id that's where things went wrong. I reverted it back to "window" and now it's all good. Marking as solved.
