[SOLVED] Error message when image button hovered (hovered instead of hover)

[Tojaw]

I want to display multiple character sprites as image buttons:

Code: Select all

for c in characters[1:]:
    if ImageReference(c + " Happy"):
        $img = ImageReference(c + " Happy")
    else:
        $img = ImageReference(c + " Normal")
    imagebutton:
        idle img
        hovered img #<------------------------------------------ mistake is here, use "hover" instead
        selected img
        action SetVariable("name",c)

However, when the button is hovered (and only then), an error message shows up.

That is surprising, considering that the hovered image and the idle image are the same. Does anyone have an idea?

The thing is that 'hovered' is an action to run when button is hovered. Try 'hover' instead.

Was it really that simple? It was. I actually want to delete that thread now now, because I am so embarrassed. I tried to find a solution for the past three days and was ready to give up. Sometimes I miss the most obvious things. Thank you. I will edit the original post to make it clearer. And I am sorry for not having checked that prior. I should have done that.
