I’ve searched all over the internet and through the docs and yet still can’t seem to find a way to make the label fit within a certain area. I’m adding an arrays of ints as a string to the label, and they continue expanding without making a new line, causing it to cut off the screen. Is there any way around this?
I separate your question into two small question to answer.
Q1. Find a way to make the label fit within a certain area.
This problem you can use “ScrollContainer” as Label’s parent to fix it.
I mean this:
ScrollContainer(parent node)
-Label(child node)
Q2. You want Label automatically make a new line when got longer text.
To fix this problem you only need to check the property “autowrap” is true in Label Node’s Inspector.
I’ll be the third person to have a crack at this. If you’ve got a solid string of numbers I suspect autowrap might not work. I guess you could just take the modulus if all else fails:
var array = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
var line_length = 7
var string = ""
for item in array.size():
if item and not item % line_length:
string += "\n"
string += str(array[item])
printt(string)
Outputs:
0123456
7890123
4567890
1234567
89
Or, you could loop the string rather than the array. Anyway, you get the idea hopefully.
