How do I Customize Text Input?

Hi everyone,

It's been awhile since I've needed to post a question but I have a project I'm doing that I want to allow a player to name their character. However the Text Input object seems to be impossible to change the font / size or even make the background transparent.

Is there a way to do this? Perhaps someone has made a 3rd party plugin somewhere..

Thanks,

Caleb

Set CSS style ?

CSS Fonts

how did you do that? i'm not sure i've ever seen css style as something i can set in C2. This looks like something I've not done before.

this is helpful for the background, but is it possible also to (likely using this approach you've shared) to change font style, orientation and size?

bump. i droped this awhile back and now I'm using C3 with the same issue. how did you set a CSS value? I imagine it's similar in C3, but still no idea how to make "set css style" in C2/C3

Ashley is it possible to open up more options for text entry? no color options or anything else for this. I imagine it's not a widely used object compared to others but it would be nice so nice if it were setup like the others.

I'm currently trying to figure out which combination is for color so i can get it to be white text instead of black.

and I did learn that this "css" thing is an action in the event sheet. I'd not realized that was in there among the other options of the text input object.

part12studios For white text the two fields are "color" "white".

i figured that one out just now thanks! any idea how i change the font size? my attempts at things like:

"font-size" and "20" don't appear to work.

It's "20px"

bah! i just saw that too.. px.. thanks!
