FK text editor

Post by Tamryn » Wed Aug 14, 2013 1:29 am

I originally wrote for this editing help files, but I'll put it here as well since it might be useful to people editing character descriptions or other stuff:

Paste text from the editor in, click 'Go', and it will format (justify) the text and also show a preview of what it will look like. It will remove the line numbers, so you can paste directly from the editor.

Agreed, could this be used effectively to get some gnarly awesome descriptions like some of our folks have out there? As in does it take color code as well?

It does indeed use color codes. I love this, well crafted Tamryn!

Thumbs up. This'll make future projects much easier.

Wow! Just used and love! This should be added to a helpfile, in my opinion, for those newbies that don't come in and read old posts and the like.

Can I request an option to disable the automatic justification? It would be a lot easier to preview artwork.

You can now turn that off and just get the preview if you want.

Sweet! I will be bookmarking this. =)

I did note it seems to capture all bracketed characters instead of just color codes - I have {FV} in one of my notes and it is interpreting it as a color code (but just losing the rest of the line).

Looks like the website that was hosting it is down or gone...
