Character Image on the side, over the tex tbox?

[Allegra Hughes]

Hello,
I'm have a premade set code for the GUI, but somehow I can't get the character to appear on top of the text box on the side. Instead the image appears behind it.

How do I change that?

You can define a custom variable to set your new position:

Code: Select all

define myPosition = Position(xpos=XXX, ypos=XXX)

and apply this variable when you show your character picture.

Code: Select all

show girl at myPosition

Images that appear in front of dialogue must be declared as side images, and you will also need to adjust text padding so the text won't appear in front of the image. The easiest way is to declare your character with a side image:

Code: Select all

define y = Character('Your_character', window_left_padding=160, show_side_image=Image("your_character_image.png", xalign=0, yalign=1.0))

This will put your side image on the bottom-left corner. If you prefer it on the right, change xalign to 1.0 and use right padding instead of left padding.

But is it possible to define that position so that I don't have to keep defining the different character expressions with the same location code?

For a side image with several facial expressions you can use condition switch:
