I am using a picture for the background of my program. Is there a way to make it so that when the user is typing something it dosent leave that huge white background behind the text? Its really annoying, and is there a way to change the font of the text that is defaulted for input? Thanks |

Look up Font.Draw, and getch if you don't already know it. fonts tutorial getch tutorial Though neither is especially great. We need to improve tutorials! |

from what I know (which isin't much) the only way I can change the input text is by using the colour and colourback commands. From what I've seen there's no way to apply the Font.Draw command to the input text. |

You mean "get"? I created a Font.Get() function, using getch(), to allow input of text, similar to Font.Draw(), and echo it to the screen. I suggest looking up getch(), it will help you create something similar. I would post my function, but it's not on this computer and you should get some practice creating your own. |
