Hey, I have this test skin where I'm changing the size of the text dynamically. It changes its size according to its number of characters.
The problem is that, although I managed to resize the text using a technique I found somewhere in the forums, I can't manage to keep the text centered. I'm out of ideas.
The text will have a maximum of 12 characters and a minimum of 1
it goes from size 35 to size 12
The dark grey rectangle represents the text's height
I did find a solution but it wouldn't do it as good as I want to, so any ideas are welcomed.
What I'm doing right now is: I'm using a measure to count the number of characters
and I have a rectangle and a text, in the text fontsize i'm using thisIt divides the number of characters by 3 and clamps it between 1 and 3, and the fontsize is divided by that. That is to keep the size between the range I want. It also makes it not too linear so it starts scaling at 3 or more characters. (StringAlign=Center)
Whatever I need to do, I need to add it to the Y position, so it accounts for the size change. What I did was: (I actually did a lot of tests and this is the closest I got to what I want)but it won't do exactly what I want, is not perfect.
Even tho the start and the end look good, on the middle it looks like this:Thanks in advance.
Edit.
Well, it seems like the answer is
