Hello, I've been struggling with this for weeks now and I'd really love to get it to work (which I dont)

The problem are the following:

/tsn 1 = team set name homeName

/tsn 2 = team set name visitName

The lua code below is what I have, and when I do /tsn 1or2 awdawdawddawwdawd the rectangle width should follow the homeName or visitName, depends on if you do /tsn 1 or 2..

If any of you could help me with this, I'd be so thankful, I guess I have to use dxGetTextWidth but I have no idea how.

  
function drawText() 
dxDrawRectangle(sW-90,(sH/2)-50,70,40, tocolor(0,0,0,110)) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorHome..homeName.."("..homeAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayHome, sW-80, (sH/2.26), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 102, 1, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorVisit..visitName.."("..visitAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayVisit, sW-80, (sH/2.17), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawText)

Thanks alot!

Can you post the rest of the code please?

dxGetTextWidth will return the width of the text when drawn with the same font and scale, you can use that width with dxDrawRectangle (third parameter) to draw the rectangle with the same width as the text.

A really basic example:

local width = dxGetTextWidth('test') 
dxDrawRectangle(0, 0, width, 20)

end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawText)

Would this do?

That was just an example of how the function works. Here:

  
function drawText() 
local width = dxGetTextWidth(hexColorHome..homeName.."("..homeAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayHome, 1, 'default-bold') 
dxDrawRectangle(sW-90,(sH/2)-50,width,40, tocolor(0,0,0,110)) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorHome..homeName.."("..homeAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayHome, sW-80, (sH/2.26), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 102, 1, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorVisit..visitName.."("..visitAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayVisit, sW-80, (sH/2.17), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawText)

Now just add another dxGetTextWidth for the second dxDrawText.

end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawText)

Like this yes?

That doesn't work =/

When I do /tsn 1 awdawdawdawd then it doesn't change width of the rectangle :/

(or /tsn 2)

You store the two values in the same variable so it will only point to the width of the visitName text. Plus you're only drawing one rectangle. You need to learn more.

It's supposed to be 1 rectangle with the visitName and homeName inside of it, and when I do /tsn 1-2 awdawdawdwdaawddawd then the rectangle should be the same length as the text length

:?::?:

Try this:

function drawText() 
local width1 = dxGetTextWidth(hexColorHome..homeName.."("..homeAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayHome, 1, 'default-bold') 
local width2 = dxGetTextWidth(hexColorVisit..visitName.."("..visitAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayVisit, 1, 'default-bold') 
local width = width1 > width2 and width1 or width2 
dxDrawRectangle(sW-90,(sH/2)-50,width,40, tocolor(0,0,0,110)) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorHome..homeName.."("..homeAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayHome, sW-80, (sH/2.26), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 102, 1, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
dxDrawText ( hexColorVisit..visitName.."("..visitAlivePlayers.."):".."#ffffff "..displayVisit, sW-80, (sH/2.17), sW, sH, tocolor(255, 0, 0, 255), 1, "default-bold", 'right', 'center', false, false, false, true, true, 0, 0, 0) 
end 
addEventHandler("onClientRender", root, drawText)

That doesn't work too man :S

This is what I mean about how it's supposed to be:
