alignment of text in a dummy text device

Post by JuanUil »

Hi all,

is there a way to change the alignment in a dummy text device in LUA?
I would also like to change the color of the text is that possible?

Thank you for any help

Juan

So for instance
meldtekst= <font color="red">Dit is een melding</font>
should work?

this gives me a fault unexpeted symbol near <

No, not working.
Jos I use this in the afvalwijzer.
I now get the <fontcolor> in the text device

Code: Select all

txt ='<font color="red">txt..web_afvaldate .. " = " .. web_afvaltype .. "\r\n"</font>'

Yes, that won't work. ;)
Try this version:

Code: Select all

                     txt = txt..'<font color="red">'..web_afvaldate .. " = " .. web_afvaltype .. "</font>'\r\n"

I've just actually tried it with a text sensor and worked fine for me.

How does it look for you?

ps: I do see there is an single quote too many at the end, so the line should be:

Code: Select all

                     txt = txt..'<font color="red">'..web_afvaldate .. " = " .. web_afvaltype .. "</font>\r\n"

I don't know either, I am not using àny floor plans, but guess the text isn't treated as regular HTML in the floorplan, unlike the Text sensor text display.
Maybe somebody knows.
