You can move all your #title & #button text descriptions used in Print() statements:
In controls.sc, in the Print() procedure change the '(case #button' section:
Code:
(case #button
= hButtons[buttonCnt] (DButton:new())
(if(>= Abs(params[+ paramCnt 1]) 0 and <= Abs(params[+ paramCnt 1]) 999)
(send hButtons[buttonCnt]:
text(Format("%s" params[+ paramCnt 1] params[+ paramCnt 2]))
value(params[+ paramCnt 3])
setSize()
)
= paramCnt + paramCnt 3
)(else
(send hButtons[buttonCnt]:
text(params[++paramCnt])
value(params[++paramCnt])
setSize()
)
)
= btnsWidth (+ btnsWidth (+ (send hButtons[buttonCnt]:nsRight) 4))
++buttonCnt
)
And the '(case #title' section:
Code:
(case #title
++paramCnt
(if(>= Abs(params[paramCnt]) 0 and <= Abs(params[paramCnt]) 999)
Format("%s" params[paramCnt] params[+ paramCnt 1])
++paramCnt
)(else
(send hDialog:text(params[paramCnt]))
)
)
Now, you can use either technique - specify a static string or a text resource like this:
Code:
Print("Hello there" #title 999 1) // 999 is the text resource holding our title text
Print("Hello there" #title "Greetings") // the original way of specifying a title still works too
Same with buttons:
Code:
Print("Make a selection" #button 888 2) // 888 is the text resource holding our button text
Print("Make a selection" #button "OK") // the original way of specifying text for buttons still works
Of course, if you are this heap-bound, you'd have the actual text of your Print statement to be in a text resource too, so a more realistic example would be something like this:
Code:
Print(0 15 #title 999 1)
Print(0 22 #button 888 1)
