How do you output quotation marks using Font.Draw and put? For example: how would I output the text put "hello" (with the quotation marks)? |

you can put a \ before the quotes and it will work for ex.

nevermind. I found another way. You can either use your way (which works fine and I appreciate the help) or you can use a slash before the quotation marks you want to be outputted. example: put "\"hi\"" works the same way with Font.Draw |

using put you can do something similar by using 2 ' instead of "
or you can use the ASCII value of "" via chr() function in this case it'd be put chr(34)
this works also for Font.Draw enjoy ![]() |
