How to change text color in say screen after player read it.

[alexei]

As the title suggests, I want to change the textbox color after someone read the text and moved on. So, when they click back, I want the text to have a different color to suggest it's already seen/read. Any idea how to do this?

Additionally, I want to add a button in the options to allow the player to turn it on/off.

I found a solution. You just place:

Code: Select all

init python:

    style.say_dialogue['rollback'].color="#FC5580"
    style.say_thought['rollback'].color="#FC5580"

And it will get the job done.

screen.rpy

Code: Select all

screen say(who, what):
    style_prefix "say"
    
    zorder 50

    window:
        id "window"
        
        background Transform(Frame("gui/textbox.png",xpos=0, ypos=1), alpha=persistent.dialogueBoxOpacity)

        if who is not None:

            window:
                id "namebox"
                style "namebox"
                text who id "who"
                
####################
    if persistent.renpy_is_seen and renpy.is_seen():
        text what id "what" color "#77f"
    else:
        text what id "what"
###############


    ## If there's a side image, display it above the text. Do not display on the
    ## phone variant - there's no room.
    if not renpy.variant("small"):
        add SideImage() xalign 0.0 yalign 1.0

    

I'm writing from my phone so there may be errors.

How to register a button to enable or disable the mode in the settings, I know, but I don’t understand how to attach say to the screen

viewtopic.php?f=51&t=65301

You can redo my code to activate the YouTube mode, but there are no ideas how to do it so that the axis is turned off in the settings. Above I threw the code so that the text would always be in a different color when passing

Cool, I'll give it a try. It looks more robust than what I did. Thanks for this!

So, I'm not at a level to understand this. I'll have to read more about it. Any idea if it can be further simplified? It looks like an overkill to me.

From the phone I write something like this, but I could be wrong

Code: Select all

init python:

    # Set the default value.
    if persistent.renpy.is_seen is None:
        persistent.renpy.is_seen = False

Code: Select all

label _("Read text")
                textbutton _("Enabled") action SetField(persistent, "renpy.is_seen", True)
                textbutton _("Disabled") action SetField(persistent, "renpy.is_seen", False)

cool, thanks!

Should the persistent is seen be placed along with the say screen you placed above?

[Andredron]

Yes

[alexei]

Yes

Here's what I'm getting.
