Strings and Attributes

ADSentertainment

when making an object display text, is it possible for it to display a simple string (such as "score") and then an attribute? (such as the score?) so in one object, it'll say "score: x" (x equals score)? I tried using text attributes, and that didn't do anything.

Display Text:

"Score: "..Game.YourScoreAttribute

yes...

use ".." (without quotes) to add another string to a display text or log debugging behaviors.

Example:

To display this: Score:50pts

Do this in expression editor: "Score:"..[ScoreAttribute].."pts"

If you want spaces... because spaces aren't accepted in expression editor you'll have to populate a dummy text attribute and work it in. Like so:

To display this: Score: 50 pts

Do this in expression editor: "Score:"..[dummySpaceAttribute]..[ScoreAttribute]..[dummySpaceAttribute].."pts"

If you want spaces... because spaces aren't accepted in expression editor you'll have to populate a dummy text attribute and work it in . . .

Just hit alt+space bar for a space.

Alright, thank you!
