<h1><span class="mw-headline">Customizing the Interface</span></h1>
<p>In Ren'Py, there are four ways that one can customize the out-of-game menus:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="../reference/Layouts.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Layouts">Layouts</a> control the feel of the various screens that make up the game menu. They control the placement of components on those screen, and what those components do if they interact.</li>
<li><a href="../reference/Themes.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Themes">Themes</a> control the look of buttons, bars, frames, labels, and prompts.</li>
<li>One can <a href="../reference/Customizing_the_Main_and_Game_Menus.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Customizing the Main and Game Menus">customize the main and game menus</a> to add additional choices to those menus, over and above the ones provided by the layouts.</li>
<li>Finally, one can use the <a href="../reference/Properties_and_Styles.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Properties and Styles">style system</a> to further customize the look and layout of the various out-of-game menu screens.</li>
</ul>
<p>Of these, the only mandatory customization is the selection of a theme.</p>
<p><a id="Order_of_Customizations" name="Order_of_Customizations"></a></p>
<h3><span class="mw-headline">Order of Customizations</span></h3>
<p>We expect customization of the game to occur in the following order:</p>
<ol>
<li>If necessary, setting the script version (<a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.script_version" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.script_version</a>), screen width (<a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.screen_width" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.screen_width</a>). and screen height (<a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.screen_height" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.screen_height</a>).</li>
<li>If necessary, selecting one or more layouts.</li>
<li>Selecting a master theme.</li>
<li>If necessary, selecting one or more theme components that override portions of the master theme.</li>
<li>If necessary, <a href="../reference/Customizing_the_Main_and_Game_Menus.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Customizing the Main and Game Menus">customize the main and game menus</a>, and using the <a href="../reference/Properties_and_Styles.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Properties and Styles">style system</a> to further customize the interface.</li>
</ol>
<p><a id="Layouts" name="Layouts"></a></p>
<h1><span class="mw-headline">Layouts</span></h1>
<p>Layouts control the feel of the out-of-game menus. There are five main kinds of layouts:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>main_menu</b> layouts control the feel of the main menu.</li>
<li><b>navigation</b> layouts control the feel of the game menu navigation.</li>
<li><b>load_save</b> layouts control the feel of the load and save screens.</li>
<li><b>yesno_prompt</b> layouts control the feel of asking the user a yes or no question.</li>
<li><b>preferences</b> layouts control the feel of the preference screens.</li>
<li><b>joystick_preferences</b> layouts control the feel of the joystick preference screens.</li>
</ul>
<p>There are also standalone layouts which do not fall into any of these categories. While a game needs exactly one of each of the five main kinds of layouts to function properly, it can have as many standalone layouts as it needs.</p>
<p>Each kind of layout provides certain functionality to the interface. The functionality provided by each kind of layout is described below. The selection of layouts is expected to occur before the selection of a theme. If no layout of a given kind is selected, then the classic variant is used. For example, if no yesno_prompt layout has been selected, then <a href="../reference/functions/layout.classic_yesno_prompt.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/layout.classic yesno prompt">layout.classic_yesno_prompt</a> is used.</p>
<p>Note that there are combinations of layouts and themes that will not look reasonable together. This is not a bug... it's impossible to have every layout work with every other layout and every theme, and still have an unlimited range of layouts and themes. Caveat factor.</p>
<p><br /></p>
<p><a id="main_menu_layouts" name="main_menu_layouts"></a></p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">main_menu layouts</span></h2>
<p>The main_menu layouts are responsible for defining the look of the main menu. This includes the background of the main menu, and the buttons that are used to go to the game menu or start a game.</p>

<h1><span class="mw-headline">Defining New Layouts</span></h1>
<p>This section contains some notes on how to define your own layouts. If you're not interested in defining your own labels, then you can safely ignore this section.</p>
<p>When it comes to defining layouts, there are two important principles you should follow:</p>
<ol>
<li><a href="../reference/functions/layout.provides.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/layout.provides">layout.provides</a> must be called with the type of layout being defined, and it must be called before any theme function is called. For example, if a navigation layout is being defined, then <tt>layout.provides("navigation")</tt> should be called.</li>
<li>The layout needs to implement the contract of it's layout kind. These contracts are described below.</li>
</ol>
<p>While the default layouts are enable through the use of functions on the <tt>layout</tt> object, this is by no means the only way to supply a layout. For a user-defined layout, it should be enough to place the call to <a href="../reference/functions/layout.provides.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/layout.provides">layout.provides</a> in an <tt>init -2 python</tt> block, with the rest of the code residing in init blocks or labels as appropriate.</p>
<p>If your layout defines new configuration variables, you should set <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.locked" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.locked</a> to False before creating them, and then back to True when you're done creating them. We suggest that configuration variables should be prefixed with the type of layout they're used by. Load/save variables should be prefixed by <code>config.load_save_</code>, navigation variables with <code>config.navigation_</code> and so on. (For compatibility reasons, the default layouts do not conform to this standard.)</p>
<p><a id="main_menu_layouts_2" name="main_menu_layouts_2"></a></p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">main_menu layouts</span></h2>
<p>Main_menu layouts need to call:</p>
<pre>
layout<span class="sym">.</span><span class="kwd">provides</span><span class="sym">(</span><span class="str">'main_menu'</span><span class="sym">)</span>
</pre>
<p>Main menu layouts are expected to define a <tt>main_menu_screen</tt> label. This label is expected to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Show a fullscreen window of type mm_root. The code to do this is:</li>
</ul>
<pre>
<span class="kwa">python</span><span class="sym">:</span>
ui<span class="sym">.</span><span class="kwd">window</span><span class="sym">(</span>style<span class="sym">=</span><span class="str">'mm_root'</span><span class="sym">)</span>

</pre>
<ul>
<li>Create a keymap that disables the game_menu binding. (This is optional, but it can prevent transitions from the main menu to itself.)</li>
</ul>

</pre>
<ul>
<li>Displays the main menu on the screen. How this is done is generally up to the layout itself, but we strongly recommend you use <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.main_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.main_menu</a> to control the generation of the menu. Note that the documentation for config.main_menu says that bare strings cause a jump out of context to occur; use <a href="../reference/functions/ui.jumpsoutofcontext.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/ui.jumpsoutofcontext">ui.jumpsoutofcontext</a> to implement this properly. Using config.main_menu ensures that your layout will work even with extensions (like image galleries) that add options to the main menu.</li>

<p>Generally, themes should not adjust the margins, positioning properties, or maximum sizes of these styles. An exception is that the bars are expected to set a maximum size in a direction perpendicular to the orientation of the bar (ymaximum for bar and scrollbar; xmaximum for vbar and vscrollbar). No limitations apply to the _text styles.</p>

<h1><span class="mw-headline">Main and Game Menus</span></h1>
<p>This section describes how the content of the various menus can be customized. If you just want to change the look of the menus (to the extent made possible by the style system), use <a href="../reference/Themes.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Themes">themes</a> or <a href="../reference/Properties_and_Styles.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Properties and Styles">styles</a>. To change just the text of menu items, consider using <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.translations" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.translations</a>. To change the screens on the menus, you'll need to change the contents of the <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.main_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.main_menu</a> and <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.game_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.game_menu</a> variables. Otherwise, you'll want to use a <a href="../reference/Layouts.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/Layouts">layout</a> that changes the look of the menus, or write your own layout.</p>
<p><a id="Main_Menu" name="Main_Menu"></a></p>
<h2><span class="mw-headline">Main Menu</span></h2>
<p>The main menu can be customized by setting the <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.main_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.main_menu</a> variable. This variable should be a list of tuples. The first component of each tuple is the name of the button on the main menu. The second component can be one of three things:</p>
<ul>
<li>a string, in which case it is a label at which the game execution starts (after a jump out of the menu context).</li>
<li>a function, in which case the function is called when the button is clicked.</li>
<li>Finally, it can be None, which causes the button to be insensitive.</li>
</ul>
<p>The third component must be a string containing a python expression, which determines when the button is enabled. The optional fourth component is a string containing a python expression, that determines if the button is shown at all. <i>(changed in 6.6.2)</i></p>
<p>To jump from the main menu to one of the screens in the game menu, one should use the _intra_jumps function to specify the appropriate transition.</p>

<h2><span class="mw-headline">Game Menu</span></h2>
<p>The first thing one may wish to do when modifying the game menu is to add a screen to it. This is done in two steps. The first is to create the screen, and the second is to add it to the <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.game_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.game_menu</a> list so that it can be reached from the game menu.</p>
<p>Each screen is represented in the code as a label that is jumped to to display the screen. There are five steps that this label should do in order to display the screen. First, it should call <a href="../reference/functions/layout.navigation.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/layout.navigation">layout.navigation</a>(screen), where screen is the name of the screen (the first component of the tuples in config.game_menu, described below). Second, it should call the ui functions to add components to the the screen. Third, it should call <a href="../reference/functions/ui.interact.html" title="renpy/doc/reference/functions/ui.interact">ui.interact</a> to interact with the user. Fourth, it should examine the results of _game_interact, and react appropriately. Finally, it should jump back up to the screen label, showing the screen again after each interaction.</p>
<p>So that the user can see it, the screen should be added to config.game_menu. This is a list of four- or five-component tuples. The first is the name of the screen. It's used to determine if the button used to reach that screen should be indicated as selected. The second component is the text used for that button. The third component is a function that executes when the button is clicked. Normally, an appropriate function is <tt>_intra_jumps</tt>(<i>label</i>, <i>transition</i>), where label is the name of the label of your screen. The fourth component is a string containing a python expression. If the expression is not true, the button is insensitive. The optional fifth component is also a string containing a python expression. If the expression is not true, the button is not shown. <i>(changed in 6.6.2)</i></p>
<p>The default value of <a href="../reference/Configuration_Variables#config.game_menu" title="renpy/doc/reference/Configuration Variables">config.game_menu</a> is:</p>
