Text on Circle of power

[Dark Shadow]

Hello forum
I have seen maps with text written on/near a circle of power and decided that it would be awsome for my map.... but how do you do it? is it a trigger or...?

Yes, it's a trigger.
Floating text, it's called

Usage:
set tmppoint = Position of ....
Floating Text - Create floating text at tmppoint (...)
Custom script - call RemoveLocation(udg_temppoint)

Thank you... I did not use the exact way you said but i understood now my map is 1 step closer to complete

There is also an alternative way to do that. First, you go to Trigger Editor...but Before you create a trigger for it, Make a Region near the Circle Of Power. Tell the Floating Text to be put Above That Region. IMO, it's faster than making the Variables.

Thats what i did

Well you could use images if you want it to literally be on the terrain instead of in regards to your screen, but that requires some knowledge of Jass, custom textures, etc. etc.

However this contains leaks. Thats why u use the variables.

Can you guys just stop begging for reputation? God -.-
You can call RemoveRect(udg_rect) to kill the leak caused by creating a dynamic region ya know
