Cahge text colour via script

[GiovanniVolpe]

Hello everyone,

is there a way to get the list of all the properties of an object?

I would like to change the color of a text in a Mimic's script but from this documentation it seems that the Static Text object does not have this property...even if the "The object also has other properties" gives me some hope

Edit the Animations of the text object. You can set the color of the FillColor property, under the Pen section, using logic. Press the Flowchart button and if you need help with using ta flow chart press F1 to open the help.

Some example script to help:

Option Explicit

Public Sub SetBlue
  Mimic.Layers("New Layer").Item("T_1").Pen.FillColour = RGB(0, 0, 255)
End Sub

Public Sub SetGreen
  Mimic.Layers("New Layer").Item("T_1").Pen.FillColour = RGB(0, 255, 0)
End Sub

Thanks!

Is it possible (in a script) to read the RGB value from a Colour TAG?

Sure:

Public Sub SetBlue
  Mimic.Layers("New Layer").Item("T_1").Pen.FillColour = Server.GetOPCValue("TextColour.Colour")
End Sub

Can also use FindObject but for simple things GetOPCValue does the job.
