Hello.

I want to display all messages in a gui or something like that, in the low part of screen. I also wanted to make all them "roll" like BG dialogs. There is anyway to do that?

thankx in advance.
Yeah, yeah, It happens. A lot.

To display all messages on a GUI at the bottom of the screen, just put the GUI there with a label on it, and use Label.SetText(message) (or Label.Text = message in 2.71) in place of Display(message).

I'm not sure what you mean by wanting them to '"roll" like BG dialogs' - can you clarify?
I know what you're thinking ... Don't think that.

sry for the lack of clarification.

But I guess I solved that. I'll use a Object below the text (so <display("")> can appear).

About the "roll" the correct word is "scroll" and I guess that the Scrolling module can help on it.

Thanks Ashen

If you're referring to the ScrollingDialog module...it's currently broken.  I'm working on it, but...I should probably put a notice on there...I'll let you know as soon as it gets fixed though.

Thank you monkey_05_06.

The Scrolling dialog would be a bless in some parts of my project, but I was talking about the Scrolling Credits (SSH V1.12). Using that I GUESS I can make messages appear below and dissapear when it reach the end of the Object. Im studying it right now to see if it can work.

Oh...okay.  Well you had mentioned dialogs and you said "the Scrolling module" so I wasn't sure.
