HOw can I print a text to video in editor?

[Alessandro]

Hello,

 

I often need to print some info on the screen in order to speed-up development and debugging phases, but I noticed that AddText has no effect. Is there any way to print text in the editor (even for CTRL-G only)?

 

Thank you!

There is a drawing hook that you can assign a Lua method to and inside there you can draw 2D stuff like text.

 

AddHook("Flip", MyFunction)

 

"Flip" is a keyword and for drawing you need that, then the function can be any Lua function.

 

function MyFunction()

-- Draw images or text here

end

Thank you Rick! I will test it tonight (I'm at work now :-)
