You mean [text2d] for the Gem object... In term of performance, I prefer to use [text3d]... depending of what you need. > - centered text > - some texts are long, so the paragraphs have to break at the end of a word > - black background, white font - font and size will be chosen later > - fullscreen on a 2nd screen (to be projected) Everything here is doable with [text2d]/[text3d]. > > I imagine the word sliptting and text centering can be calculated in Pd > so that Gem displays it correctly, but I'm not sure I'll have the time > for it.

You can change this with the message "justify". To cut a sentence after a word when a certain amount of letter is present is not very difficult using [list fromsymbol], [list prepend 10], [list prepend string]/[list trim] (for text2d]/[text3d]). You can even change line spacing with the message "linedist" on recent Gem. ++ Jack > > Are there any suggestions on how to tackle this? > > Best, > > jmmmp > > _______________________________________________ > Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list > UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> > https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list _______________________________________________ Pd-list@lists.iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> https://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
