Properties Dialog Box
The Properties dialog box is used to specify the properties of text material.
Hint
A piece of "bitmap text" material that uses a bitmap instead of text does not have data
corresponding to the Font Settings section, and text and background colors.
Font Settings Section
Used to specify the font (font face, size, and color depth) for displaying text.
First you should click either the NSP-100 Built-in or PC Installed option button.
When selecting the NSP-100 built-in font, no other settings in this section are required.
When selecting a font installed on the PC, specify the desired font from the drop-down
list box and the font size from the Size drop-down list box. Then, select "2 Colors" of
the Color Depth option buttons when using only one text color, or "16 Colors" to use
more than one text color.
Note
Only one font face and size can be specified for each text material piece.
Also, when the NSP-100 built-in font is selected, it is not possible to use more than one
text color nor to make the text bold, italic, or underlined.
Type and Title Text Boxes
Used to enter the type and title of the text material. This information will be displayed
to identify each piece of text material.
Text Type Drop-down List Box
Selects how the text material should be displayed.
Selection Description
Constant Displays stable text.
Blink Displays blinking text.
Scroll Makes text flow across the monitor from right to left.
Scroll in Makes text entered into each line of the Contents text boxes (that fit
the width of the screen) flow to the left edge, then stop.
Color (Text and Background) Buttons
Specify the text and background colors. The squares next to the buttons indicate the
current colors. To change the setting, click [Text] or [Background], then select the
desired color in the Color dialog box.
When "16 Colors" is selected for Color Depth in the Font Settings section, you can
specify the different color to each character. Use the Edit Text dialog box to assign a
color to each part of the text. You can use only one background color, however.
Transparency Drop-down List Box
Specifies the background color transparency on a full-screen video.
In the case of a piece of bitmap text, the system considers the color corresponding to
index 0 of the bitmap as the background, hence transparent, color.
