Alternative Dialogue UI design

Hi,

I want to apply a different dialogue UI for a specific dialogue node.
For example, for a monologue, I want to have a "cloudy" dialogue box instead of a regular box.

What is the best way to do it in the Dialogue System in Unity?

Thank you,

Hi,

If you want to use a different dialogue UI for an entire conversation, use an Override Dialogue UI component. See the "Terminal" GameObject in DemoScene1 for an example.

If you want to use a different panel only for one or more nodes inside a conversation, add another subtitle panel to the dialogue UI. Add it to the StandardDialogueUI's Conversation UI Elements > Subtitle Panels list. Then use the [panel=#] markup tag in the node's text, or use the SetPanel() sequencer command.
