The Text Doesn't Fit On The Screen

[Actingman00]

In RMVX my text goes off the screen and I can't read half of the things I get my characters to say.  I tried puting it in full screen and nothing happened.

How can I fix this?

Do you mean like this?

If so, simply spread your text over more lines in the dialogue editor. So in this case I would begin the word "because" on the second line.

That's what I thought I would have to do, I was hoping there would be an easier way.

Now I have to go fix all my text before I release my demo. Ugh.

There is an easier way.

If you want to make the text box wider, you can edit one of the default scripts (I think Window_Message, but I'm not sure). Ask a scripter how you do it. Or you can get a custom message system that has the height and width function built in (like ccoa's UMS).

Press F2 while writing in a text box prompt and it will show how it would look in-game. This really speeds up the polishing process.

You don't have to press F2 there is also a preview button.

You don't have to press F2 there is also a preview button.

That's what F2 does. It's a shortcut to the preview screen.

Lol a little tip when typing in the box, if you have a faceset along with the message, type only to the first downwards triangle floating above the textbox, if you don't have a faceset along with it, you can type all the way to the second downwards triangle floating above the textbox.

Hope that little piece of advice helps :thumb:
