extend can't use

[akizawa230]

I write down like this

voice "../voice/359.mp3"
Pm "{color=#B17BB7}A＞＞B{/color}Are you there？？"

voice "../voice/360.mp3"
extend "{color=#B17BB7}B＞＞A{/color}？？What happen？"

voice "../voice/361.mp3"
extend "{color=#B17BB7}A＞＞B{/color}tell me about C"

I wanne text show like

A＞＞B balablabalbala
A＞＞B balablabalbala
B＞＞A balablabalbala
A＞＞B balablabalbala

but when I use characters “extend” it show something error like this

```
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

How do I do？

Not sure, but maybe it’s because you have the intervening “voice” command?

On thing you could try would be to have the second and third lines include the text from the previous line(s), but use the “fast” tag so the user doesn’t see it re-displaying.

https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/text.html#text-tag-fast

That would give the illusion of “extend”

[isobellesophia]

The voice cannot reach out the extend line, most probably that is the reason the error to appear.
