TextCharPosition

Family: Text · One form

What it does

TextCharPosition sets CharPosition on a Text object. It takes iTextIndex (an integer), iCharIndex (an integer), x (a float) and y (a float), and returns nothing. iTextIndex is the id of a Text object, the one CreateText returned: it is how the call knows what to act on.

Syntax

Parameters

text = CreateText("hello")char = CreateTweenChar(1.0)TextCharPosition(text, char, 100.0, 120.0)DO  Sync()LOOP

CreateText and CreateTweenChar are there to give the call something to act on; TextCharPosition 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.
