Problem with changing a word's color

I was looking around the spritefont plugin topic and learned how to single out a word in a string and change its color. I used the method Lucid suggested and ended up with this:

+Blah

-Write Text: "You found (" & TreasureBox_Item.value('WhichItem') & ")!"

+For Each Word In Phrase

+SpriteFont.currentword = TreasureBox_Item.value('WhichItem')

-Set Text color filter to Red

("Text" is the sprite object I'm using for my font)

So if the value "WhichItem" is "HeartPiece", then the string should read:

"You found (HeartPiece)!"

and "HeartPiece" should be colored red.

WELL, it doesn't work <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> The only word I can get to change colors is the very first word in the string: "You"

I tried comparing the current word to "HeartPiece" itself, I tried converting the "WhichItem" value to a string, I tried putting each word in its own set of quote marks, but nothing works!

Has anyone tried doing this before and/or have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

sorry about that. I saw this topicname many times. it didn't even cross my mind you might have meant spritefont.

seems to be working fine for me:

Your example doesn't seem to work for me; all letters have an opacity of 100.

I just reinstalled spritefront and it didn't do anything. I downloaded the one in your original spritefont post, is there a newer version I'm not aware of?

edit: nevermind I think I figured it out..hold on
