i understood how to meke overlaps everywhere exept the mission briefing.
i saw a bound, there were about 5 lines of overlapped text in objectives, like

N Levels
Map size X
Secrets-1
& something else.

So to do that, i cannot use the invisible text after the front text to make it fit. how to do it then ? helpsmilie.gif

The easiest way is to use the squares and just take your time to line it up

i think you gotta test the alignment on what you type. you gotta use the backlap and front lap marks under the color. i think in the xtra editor it says something about it.

i think it said put the backlap first before the text and then the front mark before the last word.

like this,the long marks are the lapping marks|test |test...i havent test with overlapping much so that might be wrong i'll check into it more later.

overlapping back/text/overlapping front/text/invisible mark/ then u copy a tab (you kno) just make one in word or something and copy it, it will look as a square but in game its a tab biggrin.gif puuh...

yeah by "Square" I ment the [Tab] so you would go like [Back][Color]Text[Front][Color]Text[Tab] ect. but if it is for units you can just use spaces so it would be like [Back][Color]Text[Front][Color]Text[Spaces]

LOL lmfao.gif i was thinking that "Tab" means something in the editor pinch.gif
