Posted Sat 15 Nov 14 @ 7:07 pm
Of course :

direction="up"

That's not in the SDK :-)

Yes you can. I will get this added to the SDK.
I gather you've worked this out Mark, perhaps post the code for others ;-)

<textzone orientation="vertical">
<pos x="0" y="0" />
<size width="20" height="970"/>
<text size="15" format="`get_browsed_filepath`"/>
</textzone>
<pos x="0" y="0" />
<size width="20" height="970"/>
<text size="15" format="`get_browsed_filepath`"/>
</textzone>

<textzone orientation="vertical">
<pos x="0" y="0" />
<size width="20" height="970"/>
<text size="20" action="get_browsed_filepath"/>
</textzone>
You can also use action - rather than having the ` `
<pos x="0" y="0" />
<size width="20" height="970"/>
<text size="20" action="get_browsed_filepath"/>
</textzone>

I've just tried using this to display a limit warning down the centre of a VU meter (between the L & R bars) and found that the entire text is sideways.
What I wanted was the letters to be the correct way up, but one under the other, like:
T
H
I
S
I can use a visual instead, and put bitmap letters into the PNG file - or have a separate textzone for each letter, one below the next I suppose......

Use /n for new line so your text would like like this:
"T/nH/nI/nS"
"T/nH/nI/nS"

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
[later] No, that doesn't work. It shows everything literally, including all the /n.
It works OK with separate textzones for each letter, below each other. :-)

[later] OOPS!!!!
It should be \n
"T\nH\I\nS"
Sorry for the confusion :)

and make sure the height of the textzone is big enough to fit all the lines
