If you're having trouble or run into any bugs with the code, post a comment here! I will try to get back to you within a few days.

I am not the most experienced when it comes to programming... how can I apply this to artist names and track titles with your Extended Music Room code? 

Developer

No worries! I included an example in the devlog for the music room when I released the marquee - you can find it here: https://feniksdev.itch.io/extended-music-room-for-renpy/devlog/665746/new-featur...

Let me know if that answers your question!

Can we use this package inside imagebuttons somehow? cause i tried doing so and and i cant use marquee: inside imageButtons.

You are correct that you cannot use the marquee inside an imagebutton directly, as imagebuttons do not have children. However, you can replicate that look via a button which has the text (and image if desired) inside the marquee container, with your white button background.

Hello! I really liked your asset with a running line and would like to add it to my game as a complementary element of the dialog box. However, I ran into difficulties, I can't combine the line with the window. Is it even possible to do this?

Developer

Hello! It's possible to add the marquee anywhere, really, but I can't help unless you share code of what you tried and outline what you want it to look like.

Thank you for answering me!

I have sent you an archive with all the necessary data. This is the code of the novel itself, your file "01_marquee", an example of what the running lines should look like, and, just in case, the dialog box itself.

Please copy in the lines you're using to show the marquee + send an image directly in the comments. I won't be downloading files from sites I'm unfamiliar with, and it shouldn't require posting much code to show what the issue is.
