Text Slider

[jovial flume]

Ik im late to this, but what are some good methods to make a Text Slider.

Currently I use the traditional vector dot to project, but with how text should be left aligned instead centered, it offsets the pivot as u use more n more characters for larger smoother sliders, thus u cant just add a single offset to it where it would carry on to the other end of the projection line.

I could have it to where you have to measure a segment using the smart ruller at the text's current scale & get the end point by segment size * segments + start offset from pivot, but thats annoying for the user n stuff.

Ik i could just limit characters to a specific really smooth ammount like 512, but idk. I probably should just limit it to that tho

Any suggestions? Or any other better methods that are accurate enough?

I can get on to show you

You can you

String subtext

Or subtext something

And put a loop on the int adding one every time

[jovial flume]

so now u know what a text slider is? Not sliding/scrolling text @normal crown

[jovial flume]

welp, geuss smoother is better so ima probably just use as much segments i can (512) Then user has to adjust text thickness to get the right ratio they want instead being able to adjust how many segments then smh : P

you can configure the "Text". if you scroll down a bit further you will see the position settings.

And there are multiple Options to slide your Text.
