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?

FeniksDeveloper291 days ago

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.

FeniksDeveloper191 days ago

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?

FeniksDeveloper148 days ago

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.

Good Morning. My goal is to show this as an overlay to the rest of my scene. However, as it stands now, it simply exists on the screen, and does not allow the story to advance unless you utilize the separate "return" button. Is there a way to simply have this as a news overlay while still allowing the story script itself to run?

FeniksDeveloper16 days ago

Show the screen instead of calling it, and make sure there's nothing on the screen blocking progress (including modal True). See this article for details on the difference: https://feniksdev.com/renpy-screen-language-basics-declaring-and-showing-a-scree...
