Questions about the New GUI
Is it possible to incorporate the new gui to the old classic gui?

Re: Questions about the New GUI
Can you be a bit more specific?
If you mean you want Ren'Py to look like the default legacy GUI, while actually being the new GUI, sure it's possible, but you can't use the themes.

Re: Questions about the New GUI
Well actually it's sort of vice versa. I'm more comfortable with the default legacy yet I want to make it look like the new gui.

Re: Questions about the New GUI
Going forward, you most likely will run into problems doing things that way as the legacy GUI was discontinued and isn't officially supported any more since Ren'Py 7
Im not sure how you would achieve what you want.

Re: Questions about the New GUI
It would be better to update to the newest RenPy and then learn the new GUI.
A Close Shave:
*Last Thing Done (Aug 17): Finished coding emotions and camera for 4/10 main labels.
*Currently Doing: Coding of emotions and camera for the labels--On 5/10
*First Next thing to do: Code in all CG and special animation stuff
*Next Next thing to do: Set up film animation
*Other Thing to Do: Do SFX and Score (maybe think about eye blinks?)

Re: Questions about the New GUI
Well, i'm at this point... But it's really confusing, like 90% of the ressources i find are about the discontinued GUI, and documentation is out of date...
example : https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/gui.html ... tomization
"define gui.font_size"
Can't find it anywhere, gui, script and options doesn't contain this var...
it's kinda hard to find reliable answers on how to use renpy.
Great tutorials are all outdated, and documentation is wrong... so... i don't know where to find answers... i've been programming for years (ASM/C/C++), i thought renpy would be convenient, but i doubt now.

Re: Questions about the New GUI
define gui.font_size should be found in the file gui.rpy
Try hitting ctrl+F in your editor to find it with a search.

Re: Questions about the New GUI
I agree that the new GUI is confusing because it's highly customizable. And it's not easy to learn.
But in your specific question, it seems a simple change in the variable name. Look for:
Arguably, the new name makes more sense, because "font" and "size" are attributes of "text", so you will find also:
Or maybe the doc was always wrong.
In any case, thanks for pointing it out. I'll do a pull request in github.

Code: Select all
define gui.text_size = Code: Select all
define gui.text_font =
define gui.text_color =

Re: Questions about the New GUI
oh thank you !
But i may misunderstand something, as the .text are about the dialogs, while "font.size" was supposed to be the GUI itself (main menu), and i can't find the variable about the main menus fonts at the moment. Tell me if i'm wrong, otherwise, i'll just keep reading the documentation as you made me more confident about it, thank you again.
Edit : don't bother to answer, i found it, it's gui.interface variables i needed, found them ^^
