Show item icon instead number?

[Decinbr]

Hello everyone, I used command: $dataItems[$gameVariables.value(237)].iconIndex in order to show icon image, but showed icon number.
Is there anyway to show icon image?

 

[AphoticAmaranth]

Are you trying to show icon #237, or an icon with a variable value?

\i[237]

will show icon 237

\i[$gameVariables.value(237)]

should show the icon which matches variable 237, if I'm not mistaken.

$dataItems\i[$gameVariables.value(237)].iconIndex
I used this, but show only number.
Thanks for answear

WHERE do you want to show the icon?
for any text field like show text the text code given two posts above is correct.

your alternative from the post above will never work because it mixes text code and javascript code.

And IconIndex is ALWAYS the number of the icon - that is what index means. It is never the icon itself, which is drawn by functions referencing the index.

Any text box

then your answer was given already

\i[n]
will show the icon with the number icon index n inside the text message.

\i[v[id]]
will show the icon whose icon index is stored in variable with ID in the text message.

If that is not enough, then you need to explain to us which icon exactly you want to display, and where you stored it's iconindex (or where you want to get the index from)

Dont worked

 

[Andar]

I forgot the second slash
\I[\V[id]]
will work

it does - and your screenshot proves it.

The first icon in the iconset is always invisible - it needs to be for the battlescreen to handle states correctly.
so I'm guessing you didn't store any number in the variable and the textcode was correctly converted to the invisible icon #0, because otherwise you would read the text of the wrong text code there

The icon with the ID number 1 seems to be invisible, which is why you can't see it.

What I do?

 

[Kristina]

Go to your icon index and find the icon you need. At the bottom of that window there will be a number, which is the ID of the icon. Write that ID to show the icon.

But I want to show the icon according with variable.
The number of icon I know.

 

[Kristina]

I get that but either there's no icon matching with the ID or you have done something wrong with the variable. Try to look at your variable and see if you made a mistake somewhere.

then you need to store that number into the variable before the show text.
when I tested my code (and yes, for the second version I tested it to make sure), the event was
1) control variable var1=5 to store number five into the variable
2) show text \I[\V[var1]] to show icon number 5 which worked.

EDIT:
I found your error:

$dataItems\i[$gameVariables.value(237)].iconIndex

This line is absolute nonsense that will always result in zero, which is why the invisible icon was displayed.

Once again, please tell us what icon you want to display so that we can tell you how to enter it instead of the nonsense you used in your screenshot.

 

[Decinbr]

Worked now!
I removed \i before $gamevariables.
Thank so much man!
$dataItems[$gameVariables.value(237)].iconIndex
\I[\V[1]]

None of the things you did were what people suggested. You always changed them in some way compared to how they were posted. Even your last post isn't right (so if it works, what you posted is not exactly what you did).

\i[\v[237]]

should be all you need.
