Text overlays for "mouse moves over hotspot"

[Alices Adventures]

Hi everybody!
How can I create text overlays  that are displayed as long as the mouse moves over a hotspot and not only for a defined time by "Wait"? 

I only know:
Overlay* myOverlay = Overlay.CreateTextual(50,80,120,2,15,"This is a text overlay");
Wait(40);
myOverlay.Remove();

Would an "if"-request (If mouse over hotspot then create overlay) do better?

Thanks in advance!!

Actually I wouldn't use overlays for this at all.

Using RawPrint, RawRestoreScreen and RawSaveScreen will make it way easier. Look those functions up in the manual and you'll feel enlightened.

Try this module.

If you script it yourself, easiest way is to use a GUI label, using the raw function is not recommended as it involves saving/restore the background, and there's a limitation that the text will be drawn onto the background, so it'll be below characters and objects in genereal (worst case is, it's on a walkbehind area, like for example a lamp post, and the character is behind it, whihc can yield very funny results).


But yeah, try my module.
