Question of show text

[Hugos]

You must set a variable with this function: The user enters the characters on the keyboard and they are shown with one line on the screen. 
How can this be done?
(A variable is a string of text)

onClientCharacter

Example:

local text = ""

addEventHandler( "onClientCharacter", root, function ( character )
	text = text .. character
end )

Is it possible to delete the last character when clicking on "backspace"?
 

[salh]

you can make new function for this

can the resulting text be output to "DxDrawText"? If so, then how to do it?

(Can be example on opportunities?
)

 

[salh]

local text = ""

addEventHandler( "onClientCharacter", root, function ( character )
	text = text .. character
end )



addEventHandler("onClientRender", root,
    function()
        dxDrawText(text, 398, 71, 817, 192, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 2.00, "default", "center", "center", false, false, false, false, false)
    end
)

I don't know why, but "backspace" doesn't work. (For example, if you change the character to y, q, d, f or s -  works)

[salh]

becose the onClientCharacter hes job get the key

not make action for hem

if you want backspace you need make new function for new action

use this:

id = guiCreateEdit(414, 226, 353, 90, "", false)
guiSetAlpha(id, 0.00)

addEventHandler("onClientRender", root,
    function()
        dxDrawRectangle(412, 223, 365, 98, tocolor(7, 39, 0, 121), false)
        dxDrawText(guiGetText(id), 411, 224, 777, 316, tocolor(255, 255, 255, 255), 2.00, "default", "center", "center", false, false, false, false, false)
    end
)

"backspace" only works for the "onClientKey" event, my bad.

In this case, add this event for the "backspace" key and it should work.
