Make textbox change size according to the dialogue

[WillandBran]

Hello,
I'm trying to tweak my textbook so that it automatically change sizes depending on how much text there is, basically exactly how the namebox works
But I have not a single clue about where to even start.

For instance:

dialogue2.png (3.59 KiB) Viewed 847 times

dialogue1.png (8.85 KiB) Viewed 847 times

Does anyone knows what code I could use to make the textbox's frame change according to the "what"'s size?

Frame ( https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens.html#frame ) contains cacground which is stretched (or tiled) to match size of containing children.
Even more information about Frame:

Thank you !

I try using Frame like for the namebox but it's size don't change according to the what. It stick to xminimum and yminimum... é.è

Code: Select all

 style window:
    background Frame ("gui/textbox.png", 20,20,20,20, xalign=0.5, yalign=1.0)

I don't understand why the namebox size change according to the who but not the window according to the what.

Are you sure that window style is applied to the what window and that nothing overwrites it?

Check the styles in the style inspector (Shift+I on the displayable you want to check).
