Put the overlap Back character infront of the text.

also you can put the text with the back color line in front of the text on the last line because it just seems better because its moved down the screen a bit. a few other people do this too.

Do what they said but this formula might work for you but i am not positive


1. /backward\ 'Color' Text /Forward\ 'Color' Text


and just mess with the spaces and letters to get it lined up it itakes a whileto get it dialed in but the whole process is a trial and error type method

keep doing it till you get it lined up

hope that helps if it doesnt PM me and i will try and break it down slowly smile.gif biggrin.gif w00t.gif

I think he wants text, not overlapped, but like
[center]this[/center]
Either space it correctly, or try putting a /back\ overlap mark there.
And if you want it to be an animation, like colors inverting and reverting, make it:

Display text:







/backwards mark or spaces\ Colors!

Display Text:






/backwards mark or spaces\ Colors! (with different letters or colors...)

Just use the back mark. It is a lot easier than using spaces.

Besides, with spaces, you would have to reedit everytime you decided to change the text message just alittle.

He isnt talking about overlapping...he talking about how people say


'Nuclear Launch Detected" in the middle of the screen so it looks like
some one really launched one

I know, and they are talking about using spaces. Well if you used spaces thats bad. And I explained why above.

It's all about testing.
You will have to put the proper amount of spaces in the line and the Triggers writing space isn't the same size as the screen in SC.
The same thing goes with the blank lines.
Remember SC can only place up to 11(or 12?) lines of text.

11 Lines

Its this
Ctrl + Tab and that'll get you to the centre in no time.

WTF are you guys talking about? If you want centerized text, use the center character like (U)Bolt_Head just told you.
