  • I was wondering can the text object change colours of particular line of text?

    This is what I mean.

    string is:

    "Enter" + NewLine + "Exit"

    Then it should be:

    <font color=blue>Enter

    Exit</font>

    If I were to use text object I could change the colour of all text to red. However, I do not know how to change the colour of 1 line or a section of the string to red (or any other colour)

    If I could change the colour of particular text it would look something like:

    <font color=red>Enter</font>

    <font color=green>Exit</font>

    Is there actually some kind of tags (like in html/css) that I could add into the string to modify the colours? Or is the text of the text object is just a long line of string?

  • It is one string, colored once.

    You could create several instances of a text object, one for every line of text and set the text and the color seperately. You could pick the right text line by using a pv set to the line number of that text line.

  • So in other words doing:

    <color=red>Enter</color>

    <color=green>Exit</color>

    will not work. I in fact have to create multiple text objects to create the effect that I want. Well this makes it a bit difficult.

  • Oh actually If there was an easy way to do it It would have helped me a lot on my project too. Beceause on my project I give player a text. Than I want player to write it fast. If he writes a letter wrong than change that letter's color to red if its true change color to green. It would be perfect.

    There is an HTML object, if you feel like toying around with that.
