Hi Friends, help me write a script.
It is necessary that the text when pressed, let's say on A, starts up and changes color (blinking red, for example), and pressing B stops and becomes white.

You don't need a script to change textcolors using a key (A - B) but shortcuts

the changecolor function is in the list of shortcuts as is hide/unhide to simulate blinking

What is needed is a script to simulate blinking text



Function=SetTextColour&Duration=1000&Input=White.gtzip&Value=red&SelectedName=TextBlock1.Text
How do I loop this command?

What you need is a understanding of programming first!

Please check how shortcuts functions are defined (elements needed) before converting it into a function for in a script . both need the same arguments !

a SetTextColour for example does NOT contain a duration argument. one can not mix and match various arguments from different functions !

also google on how to program in vb.net for example like how to loop etc

one can also check the "scripting for dummies" post in this forum to get many examples

Code:
'blinking text
do while true
API.Function("SetTextVisible",Input:="Text Middle Centre Left Right Sharp.gtzip",SelectedName:="Message.Text")
sleep(1000)
loop


if the title is only one text one can use triggers to blink too (overlay on/off) ;-)
