Enter character name code in nvl mode

[_LadyBex_]

Hello I need your help! This thing worked for me before, but after I've lost all of my pc data and went to code anew it didn't work. I want "Enter name" and "Lilith" below it to be in the center of the screen like in a nvl mode, but for all the rest of the text I want it to be in ADV style.

define l = Character("[pov]", color="#CA170C")

label start:

$ pov = renpy.input("Enter name", default='Lilith', allow="", exclude='{}', length=None, with_none=None, pixel_width=None, mask=None, copypaste=True, multiline=False,) or "Lilith"

$ pov.strip()

What do I need to add to the code so it gets in the center of the screen. I've tried many things, but they all failed.

renpy.input uses screen input(screens.rpy)

You can change this screen to fit your needs, for example:

EDIT:

Code: Select all

screen input(prompt):
    style_prefix "input"

    frame:
        yalign 0.5
        background "#888"

        vbox:
            xanchor gui.dialogue_text_xalign
            xpos gui.dialogue_xpos
            xsize gui.dialogue_width
            ypos gui.dialogue_ypos

            text prompt style "input_prompt"
            input id "input"

When I tried it I got an error I am sorry, my skills are quite low so if you could please explain what am I doing wrong

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the
errors listed below, and try again.


File "game/screens.rpy", line 184: keyword argument 'xpos' is incompatible with 'xalign'.

As the error message says, you can't use both xalign and xpos. Just delete "xalign" line. You can check the original screen input in the standard file "screens.rpy", and the style parameters in file "gui.rpy".

    xpos gui.dialogue_xpos

Right. I copied it from an older version. jeffster is correct. You can replace xalign to xanchor to fix the error. I edited the code above.

Note: You don't need to use default style properties, you can change them to ones you actually need. It was just an example.
