Text fields... What ~precisely~ is meant here?

Aha... so it's not unfamiliarity with the editor.

For text and GUI button input from the user, look to John Wordsworth's notebook mod: http://www.nexusmods.com/grimrock/mods/355/?

If your familiar to GrimWidgets I downloaded them and installed them but... Every time I try to make any dialog or anything for example:

Code: Select all

Function pressed()
Dialog.quickDialog([[bla bla
Bla bla
Bla bla]], clicked)
End
Function clicked()
             hudPrint("something!")
End

That's just an example it's not a copy paste so there are some errors because of auto correct.

If I use anything with Dialog I get an parameter error. Even by reading the manuals I download and installed all the required stuff and set up all the required script_entity files that set up the GrimWidgets for use.

Not enough... but I mentioned the thread to one of its developers.
