Window_Selectable Part 1: The most simple

All that I can do is create commented scripts, any questions you can ask me.

Call:

CODE

$scene = Scene_ChooseSome.new

[Show/Hide] script

CODE

#First, let's create our window.

class Window_ChooseSome < Window_Selectable
#We inherited Window_Selectable because it has methods that let us to create
#Selectable Items.

def initialize
super(0, 0, 544, 416)
#Super method. We call this method in every Window creation.
self.index = 0
# Position of the cursor.
self.active = true
# The player can select something.
end

def update
super
# Necessary in order to the window work.
items = ["Cherry Pie", "Apple Pie", "Ultra Death Pie"]
@data = items
# The items that the player can select.
@item_max = @data.size
#Max number of selectable items.
create_contents
#Also necessary
for it in 0...@data.size
draw_opt(it)
end
# We create the options
# And pass to draw_opt the index of the option
end

def draw_opt(itemm)
rect = item_rect(itemm)
#We create a rectangle instance
self.contents.clear_rect(rect)
# We clear that rectangle
string = @data[itemm]
# We recover the text
rect.width -= 4
self.contents.draw_text(rect.x, rect.y, rect.width, WLH, string)
# We draw the text in the window
end

end

# Now let's create the scene!

class Scene_ChooseSome < Scene_Base

def start
@window = Window_ChooseSome.new
# We create the Window
end

def terminate
@window.dispose
# We show the window in the screen
end

def update
super
@window.update
# We update the window
end

end
