formatting of text within variables
hi,
this is probably a quick yes/no response but is it possible to format text within variables? So say I have a text variable, is it possible to code some of that text bold, some italic, etc. Fr...
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for calling this out and I'm glad Kyle's comment was helpful!
If anyone in the community would like to learn more about how to format variable text, please see this article:
My advice is to keep your variable text in its own text box and not nested within the body of some other text. I've gotten some very odd behavior when mixing the variable within the body of a general text box. Sometimes it works but other times I've had it change the apparent size of the font or not be WYSIWYG with different line breaks in SL vs the published output (something similar to what happens when you don't view at 100%). I find it pretty finicky.
