So as the title cinda says, how can i create enters in tooltip text. When you use the space button untill the next line and type your tooltip text, it wont show as an enter in the game but rather come right after the last sentence you typed. So is there some cind of code to create a blank line between text. cause my explanation sucks ill give a example:
So i got an item where im putting some information in the tooltip text like this item gives +100 damage. Now i want to make the text like:
This item gives

+100 Damage

Thx in advance,

Nic
 
put : "|n" in the tooltip for it to skip to the next line, much like hitting enter will do on word documents and such. Just hitting enter is like hitting the "accept" button or something in the object editor :p

example:
This item gives

+100 Damage

Would actually be:

This item gives|n|n+100Damage

in the object editor

-happy mapping :D
 
Not sure if this works for the - Normal tooltips (with 1 lines of text input box)
but certainly for the - Extended ones:

|n :)

=== Edited, sorry, didn't refresh page at that fast an interval (less than 4 min.)
 
i'm pretty sure it does work in normal tooltips :O

i've seen units who's name was like
Ragnorok
Elemental
and it looked just like that :x not really long or anything.

edit: -.- and it wasn't a hero. it was a legit unit.
 
you can also use Ctrl+Enter.
That makes the same effect of an Enter, but it works when you can't type enter because it would close the window...
 
another method is simply copy n paste from a word document ;)
this is what I used anyway, I just find it easier to work with rather than the small box WE offers :(
 
I must say, a very helpful thread. Wasn't sure how to do this myself: Hopefully I remember the next time I need it!

    News portal has been retired. Main page of site goes to Headline News forum now
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am working on getting access to the old news portal under a different URL for those that would rather use that for news before we get a different news view.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Easily done

    https://www.thehelper.net/pages/news/ is a link to the old news portal - i will integrate it into the interface somewhere when i figure it out
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Need to try something
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hopefully this won't cause problems.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Hmm
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I have converted the Headline News forum to an Article type forum. It will now show the top 20 threads with more detail of each thread.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    See how we like that.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do not see a way to go past the 1st page of posts on the forum though
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is OK though for the main page to open up on the forum in the view it was before. As long as the portal has its own URL so it can be viewed that way I do want to try it as a regular forum view for a while
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Yeah I'm not sure what the deal is with the pagination.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    It SHOULD be there so I think it might just be an artifact of having an older style.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I switched it to a "Standard" article forum. This will show the thread list like normal, but the threads themselves will have the first post set up above the rest of the "comments"
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I don't really get that article forum but I think it is because I have never really seen it used on a multi post thread
  • Ghan Ghan:
    RpNation makes more use of it right now as an example: https://www.rpnation.com/news/

    What do you think Tom?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    I will have to get used to this.
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    The latest news feed looks good
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I would like to see it again like Ghan had it the first time with pagination though - without the pagination that view will not work but with pagination it just might...
