Ok here's what I wanna do: I'm trying to show a text message to all players. It's meant to be a crawling text with a certain formatting (color, style). I tried the "show cinematic text" command and it's indeed exactly what I need. But... it's a cinematic text and shows of course at the position where the minimap usually is displayed. I want this text to be displayed together with the normal UI, therefore cinematic text isn't supposed to be the right choice.
But all the other text commands don't have the parameters I need to set it up the same way. I tried "show crawling text", but it has a pre-defined formatting and the loop bugs out somehow (sound plays endlessly). The normal "send text message" is the only text command I get an option regarding the position of the text, but there are no parameters for text crawling and sound...
Dialog - Create a label for dialog (Last created dialog) with the dimensions (200, 50) anchored to Top Left with an offset of (50, 50) with the text Text color set to White text writeout set to False with a writeout duration of 2.0
can adjust the following: Width, Height, Anchor (location), offset x & y, text message, color, text writeout, text writeout duration.
Actions
Dialog - Create a Modal dialog of size (Size x, Size y) at (Location x, Location y) relative to (Center/top/right/left/ect) of screen
Dialog - Show (Last created dialog) for (All players)
Dialog - Create a label for dialog (Last created dialog) with the dimensions (200, 50) anchored to Center with an offset of (0, 0) with the text "TEXT" color set to White text writeout set to True (if you want it spelled out 1 letter at a time) with a writeout duration of 5.0 (how long you want to take to write entire TEXT message)

What's left for me to do?
@Ranuglin: Go
