[CLEO4] Lower case dynamic gxt

[GaryRoachSanderson]

Hi guys, how do i get lower case text in game when i add dynamic gxt?

 

0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "_Test" text "Test"

 

based on the code above, I get "TEST" instead of "Test" when I display the text in a menu in-game. Any idea guys? Thanks in advance.

If you are using 0ACA then you do not need 0ADF. When you don't use gxt, fxt then your text will print in capital letters!

All the scripts will be print in capital letters except Rapier's script!

I guess it's a Sanny Builder compilation error. SB automatically change each letter in capital into every string type, short or long they are. Luckily, the game has an internal function which converts upper string to lower but you'll find this useful only if you'd convert all the letters. Forget this even if it's correct but unuseful.

 

I prefer using this function for 8/16-byte string ONLY:

Isn't it easier to change Case Convering (SB options) from 'uppercase' to 'as is'? :]

[Wesser]

Oh my bad! I never thought it'd exist an option like that!

Same here. It seems to be one of those things you never notice unless you're told it's there

[Deji]

Well the first thing I do when I get a program is look into the settings and help files, but whatever...

[james227uk]

That's what I do. But because I've never needed a feature like that, I didn't really pay attention to it when I saw it
