How do you constantly center all text on the middle of the screen, so that no matter what people type on the screen, the text stays up?

Use the overlap back character and then display it with a preserve trigger on. Changing something so that the condition is no longer true when you dont want it shown anymore. So something like:

C:
Switch 1 is set.

A:
Display text "<B>This Text is centered."
Preserve trigger.

Then you would clear the switch when you're done displaying it. To make it always take over the screen (so people cant type and you see it until the trigger runs again) then use hyper triggers.

In Chu's example make sure your text message is at 11 lines so it don't see copies of it scrolling up constantly.

Yea... copies would be very annoying... good tip U-Bolt :-)

Thanks guys, I had figured it was something like you needed a certain amount of spaces above or below to do it, yet i didnt know how many rows the battle.net game screen could contain. Thanks alot.
