hey guys

I wondered if there's a way to ink a string in multiple colors. Is there any command
like "\n" for coloring strings? or do i have to take another text object for strings in different colors?

thanks in advance!

multiple text objects is the only way as far as I know...

Hmm alright, thank you for your quick reply. I think then it has to be more complicated.

I'm trying to make tooltipps for items in my item menu on mouseover like in torchlight or other diablo like games.

In that case I would go for a panel instead of TEXTs.

With panels you can have multiple DIGIT elements and each one has
a separately controllable FONT property. And they CAN display strings.

And you can have multiple FONTs, each with a different color (if you use BITMAP fonts).

And by using pan_setdigits, you can change the font used by each DIGITS element
at runtime, thereby changing the color of that 'chunk' of text.

This combination will allow you to have mixed colors of strings on the panel.
Only one color per string of course, but this will probably do what you want.

That sounds quite interesting, thank you again for your reply I'll definitely give it a try, because I noticed that handling a lot of text objects is quite laborious
