So I came across the %colorname help file which introduced me tons of new color options(thought for so long that we were stuck with 16 or however many). Only problem I have is when I want to color something that I'm not triggering off directly. Like if I want to color some information I send to another window, I used to use %ansi, but that only seems to work with the regular colors. Can't get it to work with any of those other colors in the %colorname helpfile. Luckily I can just create triggers for that window that do the job(some reason I have to include mxp in front of some of them, but not in the regular window). But now I can't figure out a way to get color with a #SUB.

Example Trigger:

#TRIGGER {You are currently using (%d)~% of your shield block skill.} {#IF (%1 > 9) {#IF (%1 < 100) {#SUB {Shield~:" " %1~%}} {#SUB {Shield~: %1~%}}} {#SUB {Shield~:" " %1~%}}}

If there is a better way to right align stuff, please let me know. Have three other lines all in a row, like for them to look neat.

Now I want to color Shield: and 100% differently.

I can kind of do it, if I use #COLOR in the trigger and than #PCOL on the %1 but I want to include the %, and I needed to evaluate the number for double digits. Hmm maybe I can evaluate percentages, but anyways... is there a way I can color it like I would with %ansi for the normal colors? I thought %ansi(%colorname(slategray)) would work, but no. HALP!!!111

EDIT: Any colors that weren't working was a problem in the trigger. These are all fixed.

Now that I look at this #CW would have been faster to make these, but I thought these colors were only going to work with #PCOL at first.

Is there anyway to increase the textbox we type posts in? Seen this feature on most forums, this thing is so small.

I haven't used colornames myself, so I'm not sure how they behave in mxp. However, mxp allows you to use RGB numbers, so if you have a list handy you can always use those:

#MXP ~<color $FFFFFF>this is white~</color>

Thanks, actually doing <color seagreen>dkfjsdkl</color> works fine, no need to hunt down a RGB calculator(though I did and tested that out first).
