[solved] Is it possible to make a menu of options like that?

[Nanahs]

There's a part of my game where the background would be something like this:



I want to know if it's possible to make a menu options that would be inside the pink square. Also, with a lateral bar to scroll down. Like this:



It's not the main menu. It's just a label, part of the game.

To make it clear hah
I want to know if can I can estabilish where the menu should start (on the screen) and the limit. The position. And if there could be a bar to scroll down and see all the options. Like in the picture.

Am I asking too much? (I probably am hah)

Is it possible do make? Or you can't edit the menu like that?
It would be this way only for this label, like a special menu.

Thanks

You can achieve this with a vpgrid. Look at the "game menu" screen for a working example. You'll need to copy it and edit it to use values you come up with or make your own.

Yes, you can edit the choice screen the way you like. Since you don't need all the choices to look like that, just make a flag variable to change menu appearence and edit the choice screen like

Code: Select all

screen choice(items):
    
    if not flag: #<--- default menu
        style_prefix "choice"

        vbox:
            for i in items:
                textbutton i.caption action i.action
                
    else: #<--- custom menu
        frame:
            pos (x, y)
            side "c b r":
                area (0, 0, w, h) #(100, 100, 600, 400)

                viewport id "vp":
                    draggable True

                    vbox:
                        for i in items:
                            textbutton i.caption action i.action

                bar value XScrollValue("vp")
                vbar value YScrollValue("vp")

Then in game

Code: Select all

default flag = False

label start:    
    "..."
    menu:
        "Normal menu"
        "Choice 1":
             pass
        "Choice 2":
             pass
        "Choice 3":
             pass
    
    "... ..."
    $ flag, x, y, w, h = True, 800, 200, 150, 300
    
    menu:
        "Custom menu"
        "Choice 1":
             pass
        "Choice 2":
             pass
        "Choice 3":
             pass
        "Choice 4":
             pass
        "Choice 5":
             pass
        "Choice 6":
             pass
        "Choice 7":
             pass
        "Choice 8":
             pass
        "Choice 9":
             pass
        "Choice 1":
             pass
        "Choice 2":
             pass
        "Choice 3":
             pass
        "Choice 4":
             pass
        "Choice 5":
             pass
        "Choice 6":
             pass
        "Choice 7":
             pass
        "Choice 8":
             pass
        "Choice 9":
             pass
    "?"
    
    $ flag = False
    
    menu:
        "Normal menu 2"
        "Choice 1":
             pass
        "Choice 2":
             pass
        "Choice 3":
             pass
    
    "?!"

You might need to rename variables (flag, x, y, w, h) to not let them reassign yours
