Text appears off the screen a bit? (It cuts words off) RMVX

[wharfe]

Hi, I'm creating text (Show Text) and when I do and test the game it goes slightly off the screen (It cuts some words off). The text is too long for the text box thing.

I'm a noob at RMVX and would appreciate help with this. Thanks alot, Sam

If you look on the RMVX text editor above the area where you input the words there should be two black traingles.  If you have a faceset then you cannot pass the first black triangle with the text.  If you don't have a face in the editor then you can go to the second black triangle.

It's a dumb system.

Thanks, I see what you mean. But I cannot move the triangles?

Nope.  Just make sure nothing is past the triangles.

It's really annoying because you have to watch where you are and if anything is past the triangle it can mess alot up.

Got it. Thanks. That is rather annoying :P I'm sure that wasnt needed on RMXP?

Pretty stupid really.

Thanks for the help,
Sam

Every RPG maker, except for RM95, has been like that :P

You get used to it.

There's a way to surpass that annoying error, though. You can change the width of the text box through scripting.

It's not an error. The extra space is provided so that you can put formatting codes and such in the box, without running out of room.

Yeah, I just couldn't find the right word for it.
