Title: Changing the text window
Post by: Kon-Tiki on August 29, 2002, 05:45:50 PM

Is it possible to change the white-with-red-border from the text window to something else, and is it possible to modify that border too?

I think not Kon-Tiki.

Ok. It would put just a tiny bit more atmosphere in a game, but it isn't really needed. It would just be fun if it was possible, although the white-with-red text window do has its charms.

Thanks

I think it would be possible if you did a hack into the interpreter.  On a side note, does everybody know that the print.at command, uses rows and columns and not x and y like it says in the agi studio help file.

Yeah, I noticed that print.at goes by columns and rows instead of x any y. x and y are effectively reversed.
As for the borders, take a look in SCI instead. You can do all kinds of crazy changes with that system.

Too late for that ;D, if everything goes well, my demo is finished at the end of the weekend. I'll go to SCI ones I've mastered AGI, though.

Hmm, a hack in the interpreter. With my programming skills, the interpreter would be ruined before I've even touched the text-window ;). Maybe this's something worthwhile to suggest to Nailhead (if others want that feature too, for just one person's needs, it's too much work.)

Thanks :)
