Wow.

You mean like this: example from KQ5?

There's no special "syntex" to achieve that; I'd turn off the room transition and use a second room for that.

Very interesting effect, I was looking for something like this for my dialogs!

So, is this solved then?

If not, like I said, create it as a second room, and in the event of entering the shop or whatever, use:

Code: ags

  SetNextScreenTransition(eTransitionInstant); 
  player.x = 160;
  player.y = 185;
  player.Loop = 3; // Up
  player.ChangeRoom(7);

Draw a walkbehind over the entire lower portion including the border.
