Windowskin Appearance Issue

I looked through the forums and couldn't find quite what I was looking for. My apologies for asking so many questions....I am figuring out quite a bit on my own though. :grin:

Anyway, I applied the following windowskin to my rmxp project and there is a problem.

It displays fine, but the main part of it that appears in text boxes (when speaking to NPCs, for example,) is transparent. The menu, shop screens, battle screens, etc, look the way I intended them to, but I can't make the normal text boxes be solid.

I attempted to change the opacity level in the script (added the line "self.opacity = 255" and a few others like that in the Window_Base section) but it didn't do anything noticeable.

Can anybody clear this up for me?

Thanks.

Thank you. If I may, one last question....in the Shop Screen, I was unable to change the "Buy, Sell, Exit" commands to black text. I was able to make the rest of the game's text black via the script, but not this one. :sad:

Can it be done?

Here's what I do.... In the script editor, hit Shift-Cntl-F, and enter "font.color"
You will now see every place in the scripts that change the font color.
Scroll down to "Window_Shop*"

Also, if you put the following at the top of main...

Font.default_color = Color.new(0,0,0,0)

All of the text that uses the default (normal_color) will be black
 

Thank you for viewing
