Hello everyone!

I am porting the rex_bbcodetext plugin to C3Runtime and I am running into a problem.

How to find out values (such as font, font size, bold, italic) from the Construct 2 font property, and then set individual properties in the text plugin to their values?

I solved the problem. All you need to do is write code below, in the LoadC2Property method in instance.js:

			switch (name) {
				case "font":
					valueString = valueString.split(",");
					let z = {
						name: "Arial",
						size: 12,
						bold: false,
						italic: false
					};
					0 < valueString.length && (z.name = valueString[0]);
					this._inst.SetPropertyValue("font", z.name); // Set font name
					if (1 < valueString.length) {
						let A = parseFloat(valueString[1]);
						0 > A && (A = 72 * -A / 96);
						z.size = A || 16
					}
					this._inst.SetPropertyValue("font-size", Math.round(z.size)); // Set font size
					2 < valueString.length && (z.bold = 700 <= parseInt(valueString[2]));
					this._inst.SetPropertyValue("bold", z.bold); // Set bold
					3 < valueString.length && (z.italic = !!parseInt(valueString[3]));
					this._inst.SetPropertyValue("italic", z.italic); // Set italic
					true;
			}
