Underlining font

[topman]

I am having a problem with underlining font in my menu, here is part of the window code.

def initialize
    super(0, 0, 320,380)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
    self.contents.font.size = 22
    self.contents.font.bold = false
    self.contents.font.color = text_color(0)
    self.contents.draw_text(90, 0, 150, 33, "Initial party")
    end

It all works fine, but I can't get it to underline, here is the line I tried.

self.contents.font.underline = true

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Place that line right above where you make your draw_text call.

def initialize
    super(0, 0, 320,380)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
    self.contents.font.size = 22
    self.contents.font.bold = false
    self.contents.font.color = text_color(0)
    self.contents.font.underline = true
    self.contents.draw_text(90, 0, 150, 33, "Initial party")
end

Are you using MACL?

No I am not using MACL, is it necessary?

Placing the line above the text call doesn't work.

I can post the whole code if it helps.

Well I'm not sure about it because it runs on your pc right but no underline? Which means the syntax is legal. I know the MACL has additional things like underline added to the font class which will give you the underline effect among other things. That aside I have it installed and the underline works. I would recommend snagging it.

class Custom_Window < Window_Base
  def initialize
    super(0, 0, 320,380)
    self.contents = Bitmap.new(width - 32, height - 32)
    self.contents.font.name = "Arial"
    self.contents.font.size = 22
    self.contents.font.bold = false
    self.contents.font.color = text_color(0)
    self.contents.font.underline = true
    self.contents.draw_text(90, 0, 150, 33, "Initial party")
  end
  
  def dispose
    self.contents.dispose
    super
  end
end

Thanks khmp, it works now that I have installed MACL, now I can focus on making selectable options within the windows.

Thanks again.
