Wrapping a Text Field on HUD...

Postby robertbaksa » Wed Jun 14, 2017 2:01 pm

I have a custom calculated text field that can get very long. Is there away to force it wrap on the hud? I've tried inserting various new line codes (e.g. \n and <BR>), but the HUD doesn't appear to respect them. There also doesn't appear to be a UI control that allows a single field to span multiple lines. I suspect it's not supported, but wanted to ask nonetheless - just in case there is a clever work around. Thanks!

As far as I know it isn't possible to do that.

Thanks, for the reply. Is there any type of formatting codes that could be embedded into a string and rendered by the hud? For example, could you make part of a string bold or change it's color?

To my knowledge that isn't possible either.
