New design for “Reading Screen”

[Incrementis]

If possible, the reading screen should have its own design because reading a book is not the same as triggering a dream or a chapter.

For example, it could be shaped like an open book, with one page visible in the middle (green) area and the stacked pages partially visible in the left (orange) area. And the right (orange) area could be partially used for the transition from the left to the right side.

This is an example and it should be noted that the implementation for IWDEE does not seem to be as simple as for BGEE and BG2EE since the text area is not fixed.

For inspiration see GUIMBG2.MOS with the help of Near Infinity.

Text area SoD:

It appears that the area for the text has a box size of 932 x 230 pixels. The position of this box is at x=35 and y=456 (left corner). The size of the whole reading sequence area is 1024x768 pixels.

Text area BG2EE:

• box size of 855x 224 pixels.

• The position of this box is at x=96 and y=470 (left corner).

• The size of the whole reading sequence area is 1024x768 pixels.

Text area BGEE:

• box size of 833 x 204 pixels.

• The position of this box is at x=83 and y=480 (left corner).

• The size of the whole reading sequence area is 1024x768 pixels.

Text area IWDEE:

It seems that the different chapter sequences with different positioned text area is controlled or referenced by the file GUICHAP.CHU. The default coordinates for the reading sequnece seems not to be contained within GUICHAP.CHU.

The testing behaivour of the chapter sequence which will be used as reading sequence is as follows:

• box size of 298 x 323 pixels.
• The position of this box is at x=574 and y=235 (left corner).
• The size of the whole reading sequence area is 1024x768 pixels.
