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"

Hoi Jos,
I now get in the TAB others the right format.
- Knipsel1.JPG (20.12 KiB) Viewed 1563 times
but I also placed the textbox on my floorplan.
here I get
- Knipsel.JPG (23.66 KiB) Viewed 1563 times
So the alignment is crap and the color is not coming over.

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.
