[CGMZ] Window Settings for RPG Maker MZ

Hi all, introducing [CGMZ] Window Settings!

Window Settings

This plugin changes various window properties on a per-window basis, so you can have complete control over any window in your game. It will not impact windows that you do not create settings for. The complete list of window properties you can change include:

• Windowskin - Allows you to use a different windowskin image than the game default one.
• Padding - Change how much empty space there is around the border of the window.
• Background Opacity - Change how opaque or transparent the window's background is.
• Tone - Set a custom tone (RGB) for the window.
• Background Style - Select from either Window, Dim, or Transparent. This will function the same as the Show Text Event Command's background style option, but for any window.

Change Any Window

This plugin allows you to change any window in the game, including windows created through third party plugins, as long as your know the window's constructor name. This can be found in the code. If you do not know how to find this, or if the third party plugin is obfuscated, you would need to ask the plugin author for the window constructor name.

Preset System

This plugin can also create presets of settings, which you can then re-use over and over again by typing the preset id into anywhere that will accept it (such as a plugin that integrates with this one). This will become increasingly common in [CGMZ] plugins similar to how [CGMZ] Window Backgrounds works where you just need to type your preset id into the integrating plugin and the other plugin will load the settings from this plugin.

Example

As an example, I have created different settings for the various windows in the Status scene. You can see that you will have complete control over all windows in your game:

However, windows without any settings specifically created for them will be unaffected. This means you will not be annoyed trying to figure out how to keep the defaults for windows you don't want to edit. In the below screenshot, I have left my Skill scene alone and it looks the same as before:

Roadmap

This plugin will open up a lot more possibilities with editing various window properties, however to start with I included the most common window properties already set up throughout many [CGMZ] plugins. Some additional properties that will be added in future updates are things like the margin, frame visibility, and more.

Do you have anything you want to edit about windows in your game? Let me know in the comments below! Even if it does not get added right away, I add all suggestions to my to-do list.
