Color text in GuiTextCtrl?

[bscharff]

PHP Code:

    new GuiTextCtrl("BNSS_Info3") {
      profile = GuiBlueTextProfile;
      height = 20;
      text = "Red = Alert";
      width = 75;
      x = 200;
      y = 195;
    } 


What would I do to change the text's color to red (or any other color)?

If this is not possible, please tell me what control I would need to use (or whine at Stefan to make it possible).

To turn the text red, you can just add red = 1; green = blue = 0; to the bottom of the control.
Just use it like you would for a light effect.

Such as

PHP Code:

    new GuiTextCtrl("BNSS_Info3") {
      profile = GuiBlueTextProfile;
      height = 20;
      text = "Red = Alert";
      width = 75;
      x = 200;
      y = 195;
red = 1;
    } 


(ANSWER: YES)

NVM, got it!

Hmm, you can also use GuiMLTextCtrl, and then use the <font> tag ;o (Plus then you can have more then one color)

The preferred method to change the color is to change the profile:

PHP Code:

new GuiBlueTextProfile("MyTextProfile") {
  fontcolor = {255,0,0}; // for red
}

new GuiTextCtrl("MyTextCtrl") {
  profile = MyTextProfile;
}

Use this:

PHP Code:

new GuiTextCtrl("BNSS_Info3")
{
  profile = GuiBlueTextProfile;
  profile.fontcolor = {255,0,0};
  useOwnProfile = true;
  height = 20;
  text = "Red = Alert";
  width = 75;
  x = 200;
  y = 195;
 }

You (need to) should define useownprofile before changing the profile ...
