Changing text color for individual lines
Changing text color for individual lines
My question is, how to change text color for individual lines, for example making a line in red color, no matter what actor is saying it. How to add different colors to different menu options?

Hi,
There are two ways:
1. You can use rich text codes. Example:
2. Or you can use [em#] emphasis tags. Example:

Hi Tony
I discovered the emphasis tags through this post. Amazing stuff ! I was about to do something manually and it sounded like an unscalable nightmare. The emphasis tags is a much cleaner solution that's much easier to maintain.
I managed to test it on a few words within a line, however the underline box does not seem to work. Is there anything that needs to be enabled to allow underline to work with emphasis tags?
Thanks !
Dave

Hi Dave,
Use TextMesh Pro or Super Text Mesh. (See TextMesh Pro Support.) Unity UI Text doesn't support underline.

Hi,
We are already using TextMeshPro.
I'm attaching the Emphasis settings as well as the TestMeshPro component. Is there anything wrong I'm not seeing?
Thanks again !
