Trouble with CTC icon placement

[chesarty]

The renpy.org cookbook says, that this piece of code should lock the CTC icon in place at the corner of the textbox, but it just... doesn't? It tags along with the text instead of staying in one place.

Code: Select all

image ctc_animation = Animation("continue1.png", 0.1, "continue2.png", 0.1, "continue3.png", 0.1, "continue4.png", 0.1, "continue3.png", 0.1, "continue2.png", 0.1, "continue1.png", 0.1, xpos=0.99, ypos=0.99, xanchor=1.0, yanchor=1.0)

What am I doing wrong?

Have you tried adjusting x and y pos? Both numbers are under 1 which would make sense if it was xalign and yalign but with xpos and ypos, you can mess with those numbers to determine how many pixels over or down it is etc

yeah, i've tried all kinds off number combinations and it doesn't work; if i change the numbers to anything else, the icon disappears altogether, and 0.99 causes the icon to follow the text

ohhh you might need to place ctc in the textbox screen itself, if you include it in the character definition, it'll only follow the text. Though I'm not sure how to do that exactly at the moment

ahh, that's irritating D: i created a ctc icon before using the exact same method i'm using right now and it worked just fine, so i guess i'm just unlucky and ren'py likes messing with me lol

i also realized the character definition says the position of the ctc animation is "nestled". should i change it to fixed, perhaps? :0

EDIT: YES, THAT WORKED! yay thank god

Glad to hear that worked

Ren'py has a built-in click to continue screen.

It's really simple to use.
