Hello everyone, this is my first post on the forums.
I have my normal textbox "textbox.png"
I want to change to another character's perspective at a point in my game.
When I do that, I want to replace my blue textbox with a pink one.
I know you can do character specific ones. But I don't want the textbox to be pink only when that character talks.
When I do this perspective change, I want both the narrator and all other characters to use the new textbox until I call the original one back.
Is this possible?
EDIT: I figured it out. I just copy and pasted the window style code in screens.rpy and made an alternate version.
How do I change textboxes on the fly?

Re: How do I change textboxes on the fly?
You could probably include a variable name in the file name so your textbox is "textbox_[variablenamehere].png" and you change $ variablenamehere = "new perspective" etc and it should change it that way? as another alternative
