  • I am using it as a chat window and would like different messages to have different colors. Maybe there is a way to add a class or id name to certain messages and then override their style but I can't find such an option.

    Is this achievable?

    Thanks

  • I believe this might help:

    Set a variable to a string with the color name - this can be changed at any time so you can update colors whenever you need to. Simply add a [color=variable] .. text..[\color]

  • Hey, thank you so much :) I didn't know that textboxes support bbcode, this makes things naturally much easier!

    so I tried this solution but it seems that textareas don't support bbcode, but textinputs do like shown in your video. I would need to use a textarea for the automatic scrolling behaviour which is missing with textinputs.

  • Hmm Sadly I don't know anything about Text Areas off hand but If you want to link some of your code I can try to look into it for you.
