[Resolved]Menu Window Help

[Chaos_Prime]

I'm working on a custom menu configuration, and I have a window that displays
all the classes in the default system. All 8 of them.
But my main problem is
1. I want to know how to have the script check for a class in the party and make that class white.
2. I know I have little to no scripting experience so I would like a little help with this, if any.

#==============================================================================
# ** Window_Class
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This window displays actors class on the menu screen.
#==============================================================================

class Window_Class < Window_Base
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Object Initialization
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def initialize
    super(0, 0, 160, 160)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    refresh
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Refresh
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 25, "Fighter")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 55, "Lancer")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 85, "Warrior")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 115, "Thief")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 145, "Hunter")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 175, "Gunner")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 205, "Cleric")
    self.contents.font.color = system_color
    self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, 120, 235, "Mage")
  end
end

This is the window_class script I came up with to display all 8 classes within the game, but is there a script code to check for a certain class and then white or gray out that class?

Crude, but it should work:

#==============================================================================
# ** Window_Class
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#  This window displays actors class on the menu screen.
#==============================================================================

class Window_Class < Window_Base
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Object Initialization
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def initialize
    super(0, 0, 160, 160)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    refresh
  end
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # * Refresh
  #--------------------------------------------------------------------------
  def refresh
    self.contents.clear
    # Starting coordinates for the first line of text.
    x = 120
    y = 25
    # Creates empty array.
    avail_id = []
    # For each actor available in the party, get the Class ID and put
    # it in the avail_id array.
    for actor in $game_party.actors
      avail_id.push(actor.class_id)
    end
    # Sort the avail_id array, and truncate duplicate entries.
    # Example:
    #   arr = [1, 2, 4, 4, 6, 7, 7, 7, 7, 9, 14, 14]
    #   arr.uniq!
    #   // #=> arr is now [1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 9, 14]
    avail_id.sort!.uniq!
    # For each class available in the Database...
    for i in 1...$data_classes.size
      # Get the Class name.
      text = $data_classes[i].name
      # If Class ID's of the party matches the Class ID from database...
      if avail_id.include?(i)
        # Use System Color.
        self.contents.font.color = system_color
      else
        # Otherwise, use Disabled Color.
        self.contents.font.color = disabled_color
      end
      # Draw the text with x- and y-coordinates.
      self.contents.draw_text(0, 0, x, y, text)
      # Increase y value to space out for the next line.
      y += 32
    end
  end

end

Hope my comments are understandable. Ask if needed.
Also, you only need to use self.contents.font.color once to set a text color. It lasts for the rest of the Window's "life" until it's changed.

Well it is my frist script, and I'm new to scripting so this could help.
thanks.

It helps a lot tho I had to fix the x, y to accommodate the change but it works.
