Oh, and if you still have the SDK, there should be a copy of screens.rpy inside "the_question\game" and "tutorial\game"
As I understand it, I did everything right but probably "About" and "Help" don't have any information inside. So where should I write "something"(text or something other) that will be inside these buttons
If I didn’t explain it clearly to you, then I can show it on the code:
Code:
style choice_button_text is default:
properties gui.button_text_properties("choice_button")
I deleted all code and wrote my code with imagemap and hotspots
screen confirm(message, yes_action, no_action):
## Ensure other screens do not get input while this screen is displayed.
modal True
zorder 200
style_prefix "confirm"
When you download the core RenPy package (the RenPy Launcher), that is the SDK. It includes two example projects. "Tutorial" and the "The Question". Both can treated as basic examples of what to do.
In there, you'll see things that could be applied to your code too. Specifically action ShowMenu("about") and action ShowMenu("help"). But as scrumbles has highlighted, the "default UI" does some extra checks to hide the help menu on mobile devices (in the same way that Android and iOS apps are not supposed to include a "Quit" button either). Of course, that's up to you.
But (baring other considerations) I'd expect your code to end up looking something like...
Python:
screen main_menu:
tag menu
imagemap:
ground 'gui/main_menu_idle.png'
hover 'gui/main_menu_hover.png'
hotspot (........) action Start('start')
hotspot (........) action ShowMenu('load')
hotspot (........) action ShowMenu('preferences')
hotspot (........) action ShowMenu('about')
if renpy.variant("pc") or (renpy.variant("web") and not renpy.variant("mobile")):
hotspot (........) action ShowMenu('help')
if renpy.variant("pc"):
hotspot (........) action Quit(confirm=False)
You will then of course also need the corresponding screen about(): and screen help(): code.

"About" and "Help" screens are defined inside screens.rpy. The attached file is the copy included in the SDK v7.3.5 (path: gui\game\screens.rpy). Just search for ## Help screen and ## About screen.

"The Question" is probably the simpler of the two to use as an example... so if you look at its screens.rpy, it includes...
