Example Here
how is that you manage to put the text right beneath the beacon? Is it that you just indent it specially or is there a special way to do it?

The top row is a combination of a center align and lots of spaces. The second row is just spaces to the left. It was probably a guess and check until it was perfect.

You can also copy tabs from notepad.
And yes to do what qpirateking did in Legacy of Haen you need lots of patience and testing since it's not easy to aling all that.

You can test 11 lines per message, it just takes a few tries + a little practise.

I think I know what you mean but just to clarify...
You can make up to 11 lines of text apper at any given time. You can make 12 lines of text apper at any give time, but, the 1 line of text won't be shown. (Please correct me if I am wrong, ok?)

Well yeah, if you display more than 11 lines then only the last 11 will show up. You can display 50 lines if you want but you will only see the last 11 so whats the point.

Yeah and you can get the center tab somewere, I don't know exacly were, but look around on the forums and maybe other playces and you will find the center thing, after that, you just need to put in spaces and try, try, try, try and try again until it works correcly, but it takes pacience and time.

Quick align tricks:
"Overlapping Back" aligns text to the center.
"Overlapping Front" aligns text to the right.
"Overlapping Back" aligns text to the center.
"Overlapping Front" aligns text to the right.

True, but WellMad isn't talking about overlapping but over displaying the text as to where it's right on top of the units and beacons your screen is currently viewing.

hes talking about the overlap tabs because it could require less spacing.

Actually, there is no such thing as a back mark and front mark. It's combining the center align and right align marks to execute a bug which is known as "overlapping text".

It's commonly refered to the back and front mark though.
