white text on black background

john2kx

Hi,
I'm trying to have these stage "intros" that consist of a simple static screen with white text and a black background..
I thought it would be easy enough. Have an actor display white text, and turn the opacity down to 0 over the black background.
It shows up perfectly in the preview, but when I send it over to my iphone, I just get a thick white rectangle across the black background.

I guess there are other ways I can do this other than the "display text" behavior, but I just thought this was kind of a weird bug and wanted to let you guys know.

I think thats a bug in how the iPhone Viewer displays actors with opacity of 0. I ran into something similar when I was changing images.

CodeMonkey

what text are you trying to display? Is it a multiline hacking?

Hi CodeMonkey,
Yes, it's white text over a black background with the multi-line hack (option+enter).

Font size 15, I think, not that it matters.

Its a bug with the multi-line display text method. We'll add it to things that need to be fixed.
