How can I format the text in a textfield, like in a wordprocessor?
Best, Fredi

Text fields in LiveCode are not full-fledged word processors; they can use a subset of HTML and RTF, but there's no support for embedded tables, paragraph alignment, etc. You can get and set the htmlText and rtfText of a field, read it from a file or write it to a file.

you can also set the textstyle, textfont and textsize of whole fields or parts of the text of a field (that is called a chunk in LC)
