Hey all,
How would I stop the user from advancing the dialogue when they click on the background image of my "About" screen (or any other popup overlay)? Right now I have a python hack where I just close the window any time the user clicks on the screen, but that's not ideal. Can I solve this problem without deephacking? I've tried to search for answers on here but I'm not finding anything obvious.
pausing dialogue while "about" screen is open

Try to set 'modal' property for your 'About' screen - https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/screens. ... -statement

Oh great; I guess I should have looked at the word 'modal' more closely when I was scanning. Thanks!

Either set the modal to true, or call the screen rather than show the screen.
