Title: Display box color.
Post by: Oliver on Tue 13/07/2004 17:48:08
Well, this is a very nooby question. But hey, I'm a noob in AGS :P

I'd want to change the box color when I just display text.
It's black and white at the moment.
Can't the place where I could change it. So could anyone just give me some "tips" ;)

Search the manual for "Customized text windows".

You've got to make a custom GUI to display it on. In Game settings there's a display messages on GUI ... option.

I got it changed now, well, I got the color of the background changed.
But when i change the color of the edge to something, then there is just no edge.
It's just transparent. It shows that there is a edge in the GUI settings. But in the game, there is just no edge for the box. ???

That's how it works - text windows don't have edges, and their foreground color property affects the colour of the text being displayed on it. You can use eight buttons around the edge to define a border you like.
