Yes, it's looks better , but can you see the spaces in the words?

They are not real spaces.

Hi ffffff,

Sprite font characters must be monospaced (each stored in an equal sized cell).

blackhornet has created a fantastic tool to do this for you. It might help you to check it out (see here).

Good luck.

Are you setting the width of each letter? You have to do that in Events. Here, see my example:

Thank you,this is best way for now.

Paradox Download your .capx again, then try to scroll in C2 editor, it perfectly crashes. I think it's a bug...

same think here, C2 crash with your capx

Weird.

I switch to the View tab and turn off snap to grid and it works without crashing.

That was an example from a bug report, I thought it was a sprite font report, but maybe that was from a snap to grid report...

I noticed that the grid actually disappears if you scroll, and then it crashes.

I think , it was from "snap grid + sprite font" .

I crash 2 times with this combination .

But it never happen again in the 3rd or 4th.
