Multi-line text in a 3D dialog?
« on: 11 Jul 2005, 00:55:41 »
I have very limited experience with dialogs at all in OFP and I'm using Vectorboson's nice tutorial to learn more about the subject but having hard time figuring this out and the tutorial doesn't cover it...

Here is what I want to do:

I want to use the built in 3D laptop to show some multi-line text/s. I have the laptop showing OK when in map view and are able to place singe line texts on the screen at center or left/right but I can't figure out how to do multi-line text (I know it's possible to do in 2D dialogs)!?

Anyone having any hints, tips or maybe even a simple demo laying around  ;)

Have you tried using the same style that makes multi-line text in 2d dialogs? (style = 16)
