Help with Text Size Syntax

[WCverfrisser]

I know what the color codes are (for transparent black: |c00000000|r), but I need to know what the size codes are, I know there is one! I did it once in my map, but I don't have that map anymore, and the tutorial where I learned it from is gone. Can someone please help me?

Shouldn't this be in the requests section?

 

[ragingspeedhorn]

This goes in the world editor help zone, moved.

what do you need this for?

There isnt any size code for wc3..
|cff32cd32|r = Color code
|n = Line skip


You can only change the size of floatings text

Emergency is right. You cannot change the sizes.

PS. - Don't use Size 3 Arial.

 

[DragoonZombie]

maybe he wants to know the size of floating texts ?
If thats true, I believe its the default one (10)

 

[Just_Spectating]

lol i never trryd this but, could you type somthing in big font on a difff document and paste it in your map? lol i doubt that works tho

you've to ask blizzard to add it in the next patch ^^
(blizzard, if you can add the basic commande name and description tooltip in the game constants too, it will please me)

 

[Rui]

I doubt Blizzard allows you to increase the size of units' name. If people used a very big size, it would exceed the UI limits, probably causing a crash or just annoyance.

Computers don't work like this,
they just display pixels on the screen, a bigger size is just more pixels
and if you try to display a pixel out of the screen, it's just skipped

and for the annoyance... annoying people already have many tools ^^

but i doubt too, it not usefull enough for the work it's require.

 

[Rui]

Well you could be right, but I still see no reason to allow size increases on unit names.

 

[YoshiRyu]

he hadn't talk about unit names
in tooltips, it could be usefull to use subtitles.

 

[Rui]

Perhaps. But coloring the text is not a bad idea. Anyway, you're right.

Since this is no longer related to the thread, I'll close it.
Happy mapping everyone!
