This code is perfect, thank you !

I'm having some issues with it as I'm fairly new with Ren'py but I'm learning ! I alas need your help with a little problem I can't seems to resolve : my textbox keeps appearing in the back of the phone when it's open ! It's just... slighty smaller, and return to normal once the phone is closed.

Do you have any idea how to make the textbox disappear for good ? Thank you very much for your time !

hihi yes! thank you :) and did you adjust the screens.rpy with the code snippet in the README? basically, you add an extra line if the global phone mode is toggled on, to hide the textbox completely. feel free to add me on discord (kleineluka) if you need further help

I did, but with no effect :/ ! I even erased persistent data after changing but it didn't work... Thanks for your time and proposition !
EDIT : I found the problem ! I erased by mistake a # in front of "  background Image("gui/textbox.png", xalign=0.5, yalign=1.0)" in the style window !

EDIT OF THE EDIT : I am but a fool and my ancestors are disappointed in me. Changing this # made all my textbox disappear, with or without the phone open. Fixed this, but now the textbox during phone is back.

Hi, I'd need to see your screen code to help further debug as I'm a bit lost as to where you are right now in the process of debugging it. If possible, could you reach out on Discord? It's a bit easier than Itch.io comments and I am much more active :)

Hello, it's me again !
Sorry to bother you, I found a way to solve my last problem but I now have another one : every channel name (the character name) disappear when I play on full screen instead of windowed. 
Do you know if there's a way to fix this ?
Thank again for your time and your amazing code !

Can I ask how you fixed it? I believe I'm having the same issue you were. My textbox is still showing behind the phone UI. It's happening even with the readme snippet applied.

No problem ! 

If I remember well, I re-installed the screen part from scratch, copy/pasting everything from the Renpy Phone game and adding my custom elements after it ! I also checked for any part that might have been in double ! Hope you can fix this issue too !

I also discovered the textbox might stay if you write some messages before the reset variable (I used this in order to do a teasing scene, and then resetting the phone at the introduction part so the first messages were erased).

I hope you'll succeed in fixing this too ! Good luck !
