Textbutton/Imagebutton with the "jump" function?

[Nanahs]

I'm working on a part of my game that is a messenger.

Let's say it looks like something like this:



I'm using:

Code: Select all

            $renpy.pause (delay=0.4, hard=True)

So that the person can't skip while "Jhon" is typing the message.

But for the person to be able to answer, I wanted (where it's "answer" in the image) to something like a textbutton or a imagebuttom to show up. Only when it's time for the person to answer.
But I wanted the person to be able to answer ONLY if they click on the "answer" part of the screen.
I wanted to do it to make it look more realistic, like a real messeger app where you have to click on the box to type.

But I'm not really sure how to do that?
Make a buttom with the "JUMP" command. Without being especific.
I mean, with the "jump" function only. Without telling it to jump to a label or something.

It it possible to do?

Thanks.

'$ renpy.pause (delay=0.4, hard=True)'
only make a pause for 0.4 seconds. So you don't need jump to pass it.

If you use jump you need to tell to where to jump.

Yes, that's the problem when you use "Jump" you have to tell where to jump. I wanted a button that has basically the same function of the "{nw}".
Like a "NEXT" button that you have to click to jump to another label.
But I don't think there's anything like that on Renpy. No problem.

Thanks
