# renpy.show_display_say

Function: | renpy.show_display_say | (who, what, who_args={}, what_args={}, window_args={}, image=False, no_ctc_what=..., **kwargs):

This is called (by default) by renpy.display_say to add the widgets corresponding to a screen of dialogue to the user. It is not expected to be called by the user, but instead to be called by renpy.display_say, or by a function passed as the show_function argument to Character or renpy.display_say.

who - The name of the character that is speaking, or None to not show this name to the user.

what - What that character is saying. Please note that this may not be a string, as it can also be a list containing both text and displayables, suitable for use as the first argument of ui.text.

who_args - Additional keyword arguments intended to be supplied to the ui.text that creates the who widget of this dialogue.

what_args - Additional keyword arguments intended to be supplied to the ui.text that creates the what widget of this dialogue.

window_args - Additional keyword arguments intended to be supplied to the ui.window that creates the who widget of this dialogue.

image - If True, then who should be interpreted as an image or displayable rather than a text string.

callback - If not None, a function that should be called with no arguments before each time something is shown.

no_ctc_what - The contents of what before the click-to-continue indicator was appended.

kwargs - Additional keyword arguments should be ignored.

This function is required to return the ui.text widget displaying the what text.
