How to change the color of text to red or any other color

Hi! Please first select which type of question you want to ask:

• "Normal Question" is enough for most questions. If you are unsure, you should choose this mode. It provides quick and accurate answers to your questions and problems.
• "Complex Task" is for very complex questions and multi-step tasks. For example, questions involving complex action script, requirement, or placeholder logic. Normal users will almost never need this. Getting answers takes much longer here.

It is not possible for anybody to send messages in this thread before selecting a mode.

Selected mode: 💬 Normal Question

Yep 🙂 In FancyMenu, if you’re editing a Text element, you can color text like this:

%#red%This text is red%#%

Or with a hex color:

%#FF0000%This text is red too%#%

A few built-in color names work too, like:

• red
• blue
• green
• yellow
• aqua
• white
• black

Example:
%#blue%Hello there%#%

If you want, I can also show you how to make text bold, italic, or combine color + formatting together 🎨

Hmm, it's weird, but nothing works.

Ahh yep, that usually means the text is in the wrong place 😅

In FancyMenu there are different text systems:

• Text elements use Markdown-style color formatting like:
  %%#red%Hello%#%%
  Actually in FancyMenu it’s:
  %#red%Hello%#%

• Button / slider labels do not use that Markdown color syntax.
  For those, use Minecraft formatting codes like:
  &cHello
  or a JSON text component like:
  {"text":"Hello","color":"red"}

So if you put %#red%...%#% into a button label, it won’t work.

If you’re using a Text element and it still doesn’t work, double-check that:

• you typed it exactly as %#red%text%#%
• there are no extra spaces inside the code
• the text is actually in a Text element, not a button/slider label

If you want, send me exactly where you’re putting the text, and I’ll tell you the correct format for that spot 📌🙂

No, nothing worked out.

Gotcha 😅 Then the most likely issue is that the field you’re editing uses a different text format.

Try this split:

• If it’s a Text element, use:
  %#red%Hello%#%

• If it’s a button or slider label, use:
  {"text":"Hello","color":"red"}

Also, for Text elements, make sure Markdown isn’t disabled:

• right-click the Text element
• open the Markdown settings
• don’t turn Markdown off

If it still doesn’t work, I need one specific detail to avoid guessing:

• what element type is it?
• what exact text did you enter?
• can you send a screenshot of the right-click menu/settings for that element? 📸
