Picture on a window

[kyonides]

Hi!
Could anyone please tell me how I could show a picture in a window if I create a new window class that inherits from Window_Base? Is it possible? Or the new window should inherit the method from another type of window class?
Thanks for any advice that may let me solve this issue!

class Window_Yours < Window_Base
  def initialize
    super(x, y, width, height)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32
    refresh
  end
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture(filename)
    self.contents.blt(x, y, bitmap, bitmap.rect)
  end
end

The important part is in the refresh method.

We use the Bitmap@blt method. Here's how it works:

your_bitmap.blt(x, y, bitmap, src_rect)

X and Y are the position on the bitmap of your picture. Bitmap is your picture. src_rect is the area on the picture you are taking it from. If you just want the whole picture, use bitmap.rect.

do you mean I should enter something like this?

def refresh
    self. contents.clear
    bitmap = RPG::Cache.picture('001-AFlag01')
    x = 512
    y = 0
    opacity = 160
    self.contents.blt(x, y + 4, bitmap, Rect.new(0, 0, 192, 128), opacity)
end

What if I create a hash like this?

FLAG = {
            Empire => '001-AFLag01'
            Kingdom => '001-AFLag02'
            Republic => '001-AFLag03'
            Tyranny => '001-AFLag04'
]

I always get an error message telling me it can't convert a Hash into a String. What should I do then?

You can close this thread now, I already solved this issue.
