- You can also colorate your text. You just have to use following tag:
<t color='#ffff00'>Your yellow text!</t>
To change the size of your text, use this command:
<t size='2.2'>Your bigger text!</t>
To change text font, use:
<t font='Zeppelin33'>Bold Text</t>
To change horizontal alignment, use (parameter can be 'left', 'center', 'right'):
<t align='center'>Centered Text</t>
To change vertical alignment within a line, use (parameter can be 'top', 'middle', 'bottom'):
<t valign='bottom'>Text at Line Bottom</t>
To underline text, use:
<t underline='true'>Underlined Text</t>
To put shadow under text, use:
<t shadow='true'><t shadowColor='#ff0000'>Text with Red Shadow</t></t>
Following statements are valid too:
<t underline='1'>Underlined Text</t> <t shadow='1'shadowColor='#ff0000'>Green shadow text</t>
Following fonts are valid (got from config):
<t font='Zeppelin32'>Zeppelin32 (normal text)</t> <t font='Zeppelin33'>Zeppelin33 (bold text)</t> <t font='Zeppelin33Italic'>Zeppelin33Italic (bold italic text)</t> <t font='Bitstream'>Bitstream (same as Zeppelin32)</t> <t font='TahomaB'>TahomaB (same as Zeppelin32)</t> <t font='LucidaConsoleB'>LucidaConsoleB (like Courier)</t>

<img size='5' color='#ff0000' image='fish.paa'/>

If you are parsing user-defined strings like player names, you may want to convert special characters to their XML entities as a precaution beforehand:
private _encodeText = { private _specialChars = [38, 60, 62, 34, 39]; // & < > " ' private _convertTo = [[38,97,109,112,59], [38,108,116,59], [38,103,116,59], [38,113,117,111,116,59], [38,97,112,111,115,59]]; // & < > " ' private _chars = []; private "_i"; { _i = _specialChars find _x; if (_i isEqualTo -1) then { _chars pushBack _x } else { _chars append (_convertTo select _i) }; } forEach toArray param [0,"",[""]]; toString _chars }; private _encodedName = _name call _encodeText; private _redName = parseText format ["<t color='#ff0000'>%1</t>", _encodedName];
