I’m looking for a way to format text on-the-fly; by which I mean make text bold inside a string, without making multiple text boxes with differing fonts
Example of what I’d like:
This text has some bold words

This isn’t the best answer, but use HTML to markup the text and use a native.webPopup() to display the text. Kludgy but it works.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I loose to much control over the data if I use it. I Think I’ll just keep looking, unless someone else has another idea? [import]uid: 8838 topic_id: 15194 reply_id: 56404[/import]
Did you ever figure out a solution? [import]uid: 64343 topic_id: 15194 reply_id: 116908[/import]
I did, unfortunately it was a bit of a hack; I ended up using two textboxes and just calculating the offset of my bold text… it looked fine, but was hacky as heck.
Sorry I couldn’t give you better news, lol. [import]uid: 8838 topic_id: 15194 reply_id: 116955[/import]
Yeah, this is very disappointing. I wish there was a good way to format text within a string, but doesn’t seem like something that will ever get attention. [import]uid: 17827 topic_id: 15194 reply_id: 116958[/import]
