Published Styled Text writes backwards?

PostMon Nov 16, 2015 5:17 pm

I just noticed this in 8 but checked in 7 and it's the same. If you publish the styled text on a text+ tool and then connect to that on another text+ tool and type some text, the text writes backwards? Any idea why this is? Is it by design of just one of those things?

Curious, what are you trying to achieve by doing that? perhaps there is another workflow.
Also, please post those two text tools if you can, i'll take a look

OK, I was producing a tutorial looking at 'instancing' controls on the fly rather than instancing a whole tools and so looked at the option to publish the Styled Text and seeing what happened if I connected that to another text+ tool.

The solution is to use an expression if you need to do this as that works as you would expect - so it's not a big issues, it just happens to be one of those odd things you come across from time to time ...

PS - I tried to upload a .comp example but apparently that isn't allowed by your system.

Understood.

Publishing the comp by opening the text of the comp, copy all, paste into the "[code][/code]"
