I have a simple question, but i need to ask.

I’m displaying text using [jit.gl.text2d] and I’m calling files from a folder using the object [text]. The text files are just comments that somebody previously type using [textedit]. 

By problem is that i can’t find the way to show the text in more that one line. How can I control the numbers of lines that [jit.gl.text2d] displays? i know that it could be really simple, but I missing this step.

You might want to take a look at jit.textfile and jit.fprint. Regardless, you will want to make sure that you are saving your carriage returns. With textedit, you will want to be sure you are either appending carriage returns or outputting the contents as one symbol (output mode attribute set to 1).

If you are still having trouble, post a simple patch.

I was trying to have more lines using jit.textfile but I don't get it.

Here is part of the patch, I just trying to put the text into the output window. When I have long text I don't find the way to organize it in a column.

',' or '}' character expected after value for key 'linecount': line=182, char=24, text='...his isnseveralnlinesnof jitterntext", "linecount" : 5 {'

It's pretty weird... 
I can not open the max 5 Patch:

May someone attach the Ben's max 5 patch ? 

I've upgraded my soft but it still doesn't work.

i've cleared the text object, which i think might've caused you the problems.

can you try this version?

It is regular: text2d needs to receive first a "text somewords" before the matrix works as expected?

I insist, what is the issue with [jit.gl.text2d].

It does not work until you send a "text" message to text2d.

Works with Max4, no satisfying results with Max5. What am missing?

Thanks for pointing this out. Its either a bug or a doc error, I'll figure out which.

This should be fixed for the next update, thanks!

i was having the same issue with Recipe 28

is there any temporal solution for this problem when using multiple lines of text?, at least until the next update!

Not sure what you mean. You should be able to use multiple lines of text, just send any 'text' message before sending it matrix data.

But maybe I don't understand your problem. Post a patch?

can I render a jit.qt.movie to the same instance of jit.pwindow ?

still looking for another way to display subtitles parsed from my srt files.

the main target: using more than one subtitle at a time (one on each line)

I built a real-time typing visualiser with multiple lines feature, based on Rob's patch.

You have a weird behaviour when you 'delete' a 'space' or a letter, and when you hit 'return' after a 'space'.

I could not find a solution unfortunately.

With the previous patch, I tried to make Jitter Tutorial 29 (Using The Alpha Channel) OpenGL-based.

However I failed because jit.gl.text writes solid letters upon my alpha-blended letters. Is there any way to avoid that?

Thanks a lot,

are the colors mapped as rgba instead of argb when they are in a texture ?

also, when i connect the output of the jit.gl.pix under the jit.gl.text to a jit.pwindow, it's all black, no sign of letters. Is that normal ?

hi masa, check my post here for a possible fix for your first problem:

https://cycling74.com/forums/jit-textfile-adds-characters-that-are-not-in-the-used-text-file

for your second problem, you must use jit.gl.node (with @erase_color 0 0 0 0) to capture the text and create the alpha mask:
