Hey All,
Here is a little demo showing how to implement a keyboard for your games:

This is useful to allow your players to enter their names, to keep track of multiple players, and to enter names for high scores.
Feel free to use it however you want!
Best,

Currently gameSalad has some pretty bare bones methods for working with text. really nothing at all. I had to pull some serious bs just to get the spacebar working. It is still just faked, as you cannot have spaces in the expression editor...
You can use the concatenate operator like I did to add the symbols, but I think I would wait until the text methods get more robust to try and tackle anything too serious...
Then use something like Game.FullName=Game.FirstName..Space..Game.LastName ?
If you have a text attribute that is something like "Hello, my name is..."
That will work fine because there are other characters in the string.
but game.space cannot simply be " "
