As self explanatory as it is, I can't get the thing to work, I have been reading and trying solutions but either they are outdated or I just don't get it.
The change is visually simple, I just can't get it to work no matter how much I've been messing with the code and following examples.
This is how mine looks:
And this is how I want it to look
I want it above the box. And yes I tried the old code and it didn't work. (Ignore the color, that's just about right)
All help would be appreciated.

Find the following text in gui.rpy
## The placement of the speaking character's name, relative to the textbox.
## These can be a whole number of pixels from the left or top, or 0.5 to center.
define gui.name_xpos = 129
define gui.name_ypos = -25
Setting gui.name_ypos to a negative value and you should have the name placed higher than the textbox.

Yeah that works, I was editing things in the screen section no wonder it didn't change anything. Thank you
