"Game Interface" tooltip editing: commas

[Lanboy]

Hey guys

Whenever I try to use commas (,) when I'm editing interface tooltips, they seem to cut off everything in the tooltip that is written after the comma when I view it in-game.

Attached is a screenshot to clarify.

Obviously I don't want this to happen. Is there any way of fixing it? Thanks in advance.

Try using \, instead... you use \" inside strings to use the " symbol, so it could work.

Sorry man I'm not sure what you mean. Can you give an example?

As in, instead of typing , type \,

The example I was using was that inside JASS strings if you want the character " to appear (which normally signifies the end of the string) you would type \" and it would not end the string. The same theory is applied here. It may not work though.

Eg: The boy found a ball\, a bat\, and a cart in his backyard.

Ahh, okay.

When I try that, it just displays the first backslash but cuts off everything from the first comma onwards heh

+Thanks for your help, though. Any more ideas guys?

This is odd. In the game interface, commas are actually used: (,)
Try copy and pasting the comma in those brackets (It's taken from the Game Interface). It might work for some odd reason

smart suggestion, but unfortunately that fails too

looks like i'm going to have to do a work-around on this one. i won't bump this thread again.

thanks for trying guys

Only if this were a bug. Or at least broken.
It's a feature though. Not very finished... but, still a feature.
