How do I put more then 1 color in a message?

Post by Attorney at Law(l) »

How exactly do I put more then 1 color in a message? For example, how do I make a couple of words in a message red while keeping the other ones white?

Just select the text and then change the color while the text is selected.

Well what I do is I type up the bit that I want in white for the first frame, Then I create a new frame and make it so that the text is automatically there so I use the command [White] Example Text [/White] then I click on the wanted colour and type up that next to it. I also place a wait time of 1 in the first frame so that it automatically changes to the next frame after the text finishes. Hope that helps.

Yes, but when you merge the frames, you have to put a space as the last character in the first frame, otherwise this happens:
(this is just an example)
