TextCharColorBlue

Family: Text · 2 forms

What it does

TextCharColorBlue takes iTextIndex (an integer) and iCharIndex (an integer), and answers an integer. That is the first of 2 forms. iTextIndex is the id of a Text object, the one CreateText returned: it is how the call knows what to act on.

Syntax

1
TextCharColorBlue(iTextIndex integer, iCharIndex integer) → integer
2
TextCharColorBlue(iTextIndex integer, iCharIndex integer, blue integer)

Parameters

What each form returns

Example · generated

Form 1, the command hands back the id

text = CreateText("hello")char = CreateTweenChar(1.0)DO  Print(TextCharColorBlue(text, char))  Sync()LOOP

Form 2, you choose the id yourself

text = CreateText("hello")char = CreateTweenChar(1.0)TextCharColorBlue(text, char, 128)DO  Sync()LOOP

CreateText and CreateTweenChar are there to give the call something to act on; TextCharColorBlue is the line that matters. The DO … LOOP is not decoration: a classic BASIC program ends the moment it runs out of lines, and Sync() is what draws the frame.
