Positioning images is hard! [edit: half-solved]

[H3artbr0ken]

I tried using this recipe: http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/coo ... een_Effect

Code: Select all

define t = Character('Twilight Sparkle', color="#993366")
define d = Character('Discord', color="#CC6633")

image dreamroom = "3DDreamRoom.jpg"

init:
    image splash = "avatarHN.jpg"

label splashscreen:
    $ renpy.pause(0)
    scene black 
    with Pause(0.5)
    
    show splash 
    with dissolve
    with Pause(1.0)
    
    scene black 
    with dissolve
    with Pause(0.5)

    return

label start:
    
scene dreamroom with fade
    
d "Welcome... "
d "You're probably wondering where you are, aren't you?"

return

But it returns this result...

Additionally, following this: http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/coo ... ide_Images my side image portrait is in the top left corner instead of the bottom left and knowing how to fix that would be great.

That splashscreen recipe says "This page is obsolete" on top...
You can try positioning the image with ATL (see the documentation here - http://www.renpy.org/wiki/renpy/doc/ref ... Properties):

Code: Select all

show splash:
    xalign 0.5 yalign 0.5

Regarding the side image thing: you need to specify the location of the image using the xalign, yalign property. That can be done at the point when you use the Image statement.
Regarding the splashscreen: you probably need to say what exactly when wrong, since the screenshot there show exactly what you should expect to get.
Regarding obsolete page: I think the only thing obsolete about it is that the splashscreen code is no longer provided automatically by Ren'Py. The splashscreen still work just fine.

Thanks, I'll dive into the documentation for the Xalign/Yalign thing.

I think I found the markup, now how do I code it in? My python skills are quite rusty. Taking a break from Ren'Py was a mistake...
