Notification on choice buttons

[Adamozo]

Hello.
I'm sort of new to Ren'Py.

So I've been trying to make a game for a friend of mine and I need a menu that would notify the player everytime he hovers over one of the items.
For example:

Code: Select all

menu:
    "Red":
        hovered Notify("This is red color.")

Something along those lines. But all I've been getting so far are errors that say:

Code: Select all

File "game/script.rpy", line 1131: expected statement.
    hovered Notify("This is not red.")
                  ^

Is there a simple way to make menu choices notify the player while they hover over them?

You could alter the choice screen to support arguments, then add them in menus:

Code: Select all

# screens.rpy

screen choice(items):
    style_prefix "choice"

    vbox:
        for i in items:
            textbutton i.caption:
                action i.action
                if i.args:
                    hovered Notify(i.args[0])

Then in menus, pass in an argument:

Code: Select all

label start:

    menu:
        "choice" ("this is a choice"):
            pass
        "choice 2" ("this is choice number 2"):
            pass
        "choice 3 with no notify":
            pass
