I’ve been working on Katana for about 2-4 hours a day since Monday and made some good progress – the listbox widget is […]

Transposed from Gaiiden’s Scroll The GUI expansion continues! Here I have a text input box set up. I’ve always had text that you can change, but I’ve never wrapped it up into something like this. Meaning the input text (standalone) only accepts input after the text itself is clicked, not a certain area (like a […]
