Feature Request

[Joe (aka FlashPulse)]

Unless I’m over-looking something…

1.) An option to display the grid above everything, with transparency option.

2.) HTML support within Dynamic Text.

I know you can add a Div Element with HTML but it doesn’t show the text until you publish and preview your site. The Div Element is a nice feature for some things but being able to add basic HTML to a Dynamic Text would help with copyright symbols, bullet list, etc.

Thanks!
Joe

1) Select Options from the top menu bar and then select Grid menu item. To change default grid options, go to File > Preferences – View page.

2) Click on the A icon on the left and hold down for a second to get the menu. Select Add Dynamic Text. Alternatively, select Objects from the top menu bar and then select Add Text > Add Dynamic Text.

1.) I totally didn’t even think of the preference for some reason. I would suggest adding a new menu item under Options menu then. Add a “Grid Options” menu item that opens the preference window to the proper area. Just in case someone overlooks the current method like I did.

2.) Oh, I was able to create a Dynamic Text but wasn’t able to use HTML, such as, %#169 for the copyright symbol. I think there use to be an option you had to select to enable HTML in a Dynamic Text box. I didn’t see it in KoolShow though.

See if typing ALT + 0169 will allow you to enter the copyright symbol — https://www.alt-codes.net/copyright_alt_code.php.

It makes sense that you can’t enter an html code in the text. I will investigate what it takes to allow html.

I’ll try that when I get home. Thanks!

Ok, I feel like a goob. I said Dynamic Text throughout this post. I should have said Static Text. Yes, Dynamic Text does support HTML, such as &#169, but I was using Static. Just for the fact that you can see Static within KoolShow. So I may switch it to Dynamic, I just wish you could see Dynamic within the app.

Sorry for the confusion Bob.
