You can do like this :

• Example
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- -------------------------------------------------------- --------
    • -------- Create your floating text here --------
    • -------- -------------------------------------------------------- --------
    • -------- Hide it for all players --------
    • Floating Text - Hide (Last created floating text) for (All Players)
    • -------- Show it to a player --------
    • Set TempForce = (Player group(Player 1 (Red)))
    • Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for TempForce
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_TempForce)

Or like this :

• Example
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- -------------------------------------------------------- --------
    • -------- Create your floating text here --------
    • -------- -------------------------------------------------------- --------
    • -------- Hide it for all players --------
    • Floating Text - Hide (Last created floating text) for (All Players)
    • -------- Show it to a player --------
    • Set TempForce = (Player group(Player 1 (Red)))
    • Floating Text - Show (Last created floating text) for TempForce
    • Custom script: call DestroyForce(udg_TempForce)

In trigger there is leaks that cause lags, and of course there's a way to remove it. Here is some leaks that many times not removed and the way to fix it :

Point leaks :

• Example
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Leaks --------
    • Unit - Move SomeUnit instantly to (Center of (Playable map area))
    • -------- Fix the leaks --------
    • Set SomePoint = (Center of (Playable map area))
    • Unit - Move SomeUnit instantly to SomePoint
    • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_SomeUnit)

Unit Group leaks :

• Example
  • Events
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Leaks --------
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
    • -------- Fix the leaks --------
    • Custom script: set bj_wantDestroyGroup = true
    • Unit Group - Pick every unit in (Units in (Playable map area)) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions

There is more...but i forgot

''All Players'' does not leaks AFAIK, so it's not nessesary to destroy it

Or for much better:

• Custom script:if GetLocalPlayer == udg_yourplayer then
• Floating Text - Show YourText for YourPlayer
• Custom script:endif

@Radamantus
When Blizzard gave us the function to hide Floating Text for all Players - and later we can only show it to one player, just use it.

Don't overcomplicate things by creating it locally, stick to the simple.
