[SOLVED] Customizing the volume slider

[Exodus13]

So I wanted to change the width and length of the sliders in user preferences, but I'm not sure how to do that in a way that it doesn't change the sliders in other menus. Basically I want the options menu to look different depending on where you access it from (quick menu or main menu).

You can apply different styles to the sliders, or specify some parameters to overwrite currently used style:

Code: Select all

bar value Preference("music volume"):
    style "some_new_style"

Code: Select all

bar value Preference("music volume"):
    xysize 100,5

Basically I want the options menu to look different depending on where you access it from (quick menu or main menu).

There are two ways:
1) you define two screens (for example, preferences and preferences2) and use action ShowMenu('preferences') from the game_menu and ShowMenu('preferences2') from the quick menu
2) You may pass argument to the screen to distinguish what style you want to use for example:

Code: Select all

... ShowMenu('preferences', from_quick_menu = True)

Code: Select all

screen preferences( from_quick_menu = False):
    tag menu
    ...
    bar value Preference("music volume"):
        if from_quick_menu:
            xysize 100,5
