It wasn't a known issue, and it's working for me. Do you have an error, or an example where it isn't working? I believe you, I just can't repeat the issue here.

Oh, I think I see the problem. Does Style Inspector (shift-I) only show screens? I have a complex displayable that I am showing as an image.
Here's the screen. There are two images being shown, a background image and a (complex) character sprite.
Style inspector with the mouse over the girl, does not show the elements of the displayable she's constructed from:
She is defined like this:

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
By default, the style inspector avoids showing the master layer. If you use the shortcut for the full inspector - shift+alt+I - all displayables are shown. I'm glad that's all it was.

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
8.0.0.22052902 / 7.5.0.22052902)
The big thing here is adding one of the last major pieces of 8.0 and 7.5 - support for ARM Linux. While not particularly intrusive into Ren'Py proper, this adds support for two major platforms - Rasperry Pis, and ARM Chromebooks running Linux. (x86_64 chromebooks have been supported for a long time.) I really wanted to get these platforms into this release, as they're easy to support and provide inexpensive ways to develop and run Ren'Py games, and are popular among educators and students.
The SDK is fully supported on ARM Linux as it is on other Linux platforms. For now, the ARM SDK is a separate download, but that download contains support for all platforms. The ARM SDK is required to run games on ARM Linux platforms.
This also deprecates jEdit, which I haven't updated in years. You can still take the 7.4 version, install it with Ren'Py, and it will run as well or poorly as it did in the past, but it's not offered to new installs that don't do this manual installation.
Finally, there were two small bug fixes, and a large number of documentation improvements.
My sense is that 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 are doing really well, thank you for everyone who's been testing these releases.

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
Got this exception on Renpy 8.0.0:
Was there a change in how variables are passed to screens inluded with "use"? I could get rid of the error by adding a parameter to the gallery_navigation screen and pass it explicitly, but changing code in Renpy's own files can't be the right solution.

RFB, can you break that out so I can see what's going on, and figure what the change was?

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
I'm not exactly sure what you need from me, but this is easily reproducible:
Create a new game in 8.0.0 and replace the content of script.rpy with this:
Launch the game, click start, click the image button and get the exception.
Bonus: Try this one instead for an even weirder error where the navigation screen picks up the string variable named "gallery".
My quick fix was to change was to change these lines in renpy/common/00_gallery.rpy
with this
Create a new game in 8.0.0 and replace the content of script.rpy with this:
Code: Select all
init python:
the_gallery = Gallery()
the_gallery.locked_button = Image("gui/window_icon.png")
the_gallery.navigation = True
the_gallery.button("Gallery")
the_gallery.image("gui/window_icon.png")
screen the_gallery():
add the_gallery.make_button("Gallery", Image("gui/window_icon.png"))
label start:
show screen the_gallery()
pause

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
There is a small issue I have regarding generation of translation files. The documentation (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/translation.html#tips) reads "To prevent this, labels that are given the hide clause are ignored when generating translations.". This does not occur to me with the latest renpy version of 8.0.
The following code will still create a translation file, consisting of all the 5 strings (1x dialogue, 3x menu items and 1x string translation):

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
Isn't hiding labels used when adding labels to existing code to prevent regeneration of IDs?

Ocelot is correct as to what hide does.

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
Ren'Py 8.0.0.22060901 / Ren'Py 7.5.0.2206090)
I just made a new prerelease, with a lot of fixes for issues that the community reported. Thank you to everyone that's been testing these releases.

I just made a new prerelease, with a lot of fixes for issues that the community reported. Thank you to everyone that's been testing these releases.
- Expressions in ATL are now evaluated using a cached and compiled version of the expression, and hence are slightly faster.
- Modal screens do not, on their own, cause skipping to stop.
- An issue with modal screens that could cause focus to keep changing (and hence the screen to stop being interactive) has been fixed.
- The child of an imagebutton changing cases per-interaction behaviors to occur for that child; this allows ConditionSwitch to function when it is the child of an imagebutton.
- It is now possible to create bare-zip and bare-tar.bz2 packages. These contain the same files as the zip package, but do not prefix each file with a directory starting with the package name and version. This is mostly intended for the Market package, so that launch configurations do not need to be updated each time the game is released.
- A divide by zero error that happened when changing the volume during fade has been fixed. (This lead to a crash.)
- A problem setting the pan on the web platform has been fixed. (This lead to a crash.)
- Scopes are now stored with DynamicImages that use the special [prefix_] substitution. This allows a dynamic image to both contain information taken from the screen, and have a prefix associated.
- Android now prompts for the app store to use, and will disable app store support if one is not selected. It also now lists OpenGL ES 3.0 as a requirement.
- The Android text input system has been reverted to the SDL version. The SDL version does not support languages that require input methods
(Japanese, Chinese, etc.) - that's an issue the library is working on. Unfortunately, the changes I made to support IMEs were not reliable enough to use in production. - There have been many updates to documentation and translations.

Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
This broke something with my game. Tooltips that worked perfectly now don't. Also mouse icons of imagebuttons don't show up in the case the tooltip loads. The problem seems to be the dismiss displayable. If you place it at the end of the screen it works again. (Did work at the beginning of the screen in the former renpy version.)
edit:
Placing the dismiss at the end of the screen still makes problems, since buttons won't react to user interaction anymore.
Code: Select all
screen myitems:
modal True
$ tooltip = GetTooltip() or renpy.random.choice(["waiting","knockknock"])
dismiss action Hide()
vbox:
imagebutton idle Solid("#00f"):
xsize 100 ysize 50
action Confirm("Really?", NullAction())
tooltip "clickme"
mouse "somecursor"
text tooltip
Re: Ren'Py 8.0.0 and 7.5.0 Preleased
I *think* that's referring to the system Ren'py uses for giving IDs to lines of dialogue, which would be necessary to do mappings of translations. PyTom explains it here: https://patreon.renpy.org/rpyc.htmlm_from_space wrote: ↑Thu Jun 09, 2022 4:44 am "Adding labels can also confuse the translation process.

- m_from_space's regression above was caused by the children of boxes and fixeds being iterated in the wrong order. I've corrected that order.
- We fixed an issue where the ATL function statement could cause Ren'Py to crash, when used in conjunction with repeat.
- The updater forces the URL to unicode, which was a problem on 7.5.0.
