Changing the text box

[NRGFORCE]

Hi all,

I have a question about changing the ugly white text box with the black border around it. I made a new GUI, checked Text Window, changed the background color, and tested my game, but it doesnt show up Does anyone know what I need to do??

Have you changed the 'Text windows use GUI:' setting on the 'General Settings' window?

EDIT: Manual Entry which explains it all.

Thanks, that did the trick

But now I get all these blue cups around my gui

Was that a serious question? (It was the  '' that confused me ...)

To get rid of them, you'll have to import sprites for the corners and edges of the text Window GUI. If you don't want graphics there - you're happy with just a single coloured pixel border, you just don't want black and white - import a wholely trnasparent graphics (it only needs to be small, 1x1 should do), and set that for all the corner/border graphics. Note that the outline colour and te text colour will be the same.

If that doesn't work (un-tested), you'll have to import the graphics after all, even if they're only single lines (1x1 squares of colour won't do, I'm afraid - except for the corner, obviously).
