How to set the colour of texts?
A simple question:
You can load "Video processor --> Overlay: Text" and there you have parameters for the "text-size", "x", "y" etc ... But where can I set the colo(u)r of the text? Is there a special trick? Do I have to step into the code? |

You need Jon Tidey's (ReaperBlog) enhanced video processor presets:

@uncleswede: Thanks for your advice to reaperblog!
I downloaded the reaperblog scripts - version 12-10-2018 - but I couldn't find those scripts he mentioned in his video. But nevermind, I guess a combination of "Overlay text" and one of the "colorizers" can be the solution. |

Ok now: A combination of "Overlay: text" and "set colours"
(or similar named) doesn't do it, because even in a new track always the whole video-stream is affected. My workaround is: Just take a GIF-image which carries the text. |

If you subscribe to the reaperblog which is free (although donations are welcome I believe) you will be sent links to download the extra video processor Presets

A new version of my text overlay is in my new video course that I launched this week.
text color, drop shadow, background color can be controlled

Can't figure out how to make red text
Quote:
When I put in gfx_set(green,fga)I get green which makes sense. However, when I put in gfx_set(red,fga), I don't get red. It just stays green. Same with gfx_set(blue,fga) What am I missing here? Thanks |
