Hello everyone,


Let me make sense of the title if I wasn't clear. 


I am looking for a plugin which can have the name of the area of a map the character is on appear in the top left, right or centre of the screen. I would like this piece of text to stay there even when the character moves (so essentially the text would be moving as the character moves). 

Exampe: 'Say my map has 3 areas -- The Swindled Swamps, Butternut Boatyard & Autumn Palace. When the character is in each of these locations I want a piece of text at the top of the game window to say the area name, for it to stay there as the character moves and for it to be able to change to a different areas name as my character moves to a new area on the map.'
 


I tried yanfly's 'event mini label' and silver's 'event text' plugins. Both are great plugins but do not let the text move with the characters movements. I understand it may be asking for too much haha! Please help :)

It's already in the editor, all you have to do is press Space Bar to access the window in the editor where you can edit your dimensions.


There is an option as "Display Name" it basically shows the name you want to show on the map when you enter it. If it's a custom one you want, try this one

One way I can think of to do this is to make a png file of the name you want shown.  Then you can use the Show Picture command to display it when needed.

I should realize that error was produced by a outdated version of MZ so that's why it pop up like that
