Hello! I am fairly new to Decker, so forgive me if these questions are silly. I have an all black background, and I want to add a small text of the title of my game. However, the field box is automatically white, and there is no way to change it, other than the field text colour. I want to change the background colour to black, or even make it transparent if its easier. Is there a way to do this with/without scripts?

My second question was also in regards to text-- is there a way to make the text slowly fade in with scripts? Or if there is a way to implement a typewriter effect so that it takes some time for the field to finish its paragraph?

Thank you!

Hi, for you first question, there is a way to change the field box to have it inverted or transparent. Select the field widget, go to the widget menu and you should be able to change it there.

As for the fading effect, the only way I know how is to have two identical cards, one with and the other without the text and to add a fading transition between them.

And as for the typewriter effect, there'sMillie who did a great module for that. You can find ithere. I hope this helps

I think most of your questions have been answered, but there is something I can add. In terms of a fading effect, if you're willing to mess around with changing the palette then this is something you can do! I made a module calledPaletteFade that lets you smoothly transition from one palette to another. If you have text set to a certain colour in the palette, and use PaletteFade to change that colour from being the same as the background to a distinct colour, it'll look like the text is fading in. There's a few other tools in the Contraption Bazaar that can be helpful for messing with palettes if this is something you want to do.

Or the easier option is having two cards and transitioning between them as mentioned elsewhere haha.
