Can't change the position of the input box (Solved)

[Mehmed]

I'm trying to change the temporary position of the input area to fit the location on screen but it either won't budge from it's default spot or it will return errors.
I know I'm doing this wrong, so would someone kindly return an example of how to do this correctly?

Code: Select all

$ charname = renpy.input("My name is...", length=24, xpos=374, ypos=560)

When I use this I get a TypeError on xpos, so I'm assuming xpos and ypos are incorrect in the way they're being used.
I know how to change it in screens but I need it to be in a temporary location for this screen instead of the default area I have it in.

The key to adjusting the Input box is in your screens.rpy -- your screens Tab

Thank you.

Ah, is there any way I can have text center itself while being input? You know like text moving back from the cursor without the cursor moving while typing.

I'm afraid I don't know that one.
