how about using the text command?


Default Text properties make it about 15 pixel height, so each line would b plus 15, the 0 represent the distance from the left edge. i norm use 10.

Like for an RPG or what?

If you have X-ray vision, can you see through your own eyelids?

Well, you'd have to either make a box image, load it then put the text on top..

Or use the 2d commands to draw one.

This snippet uses the graphical text box:



This next snippet will print the text into the box:



Is this what you were looking for?
