Description Jacob Floyd 2005-12-30 23:29:18 UTC

In a gensplash theme, I'm trying to use the text element as documented in:
/usr/share/doc/splashutils-1.1.9.8/theme_format.gz
<quote>
text [flags] <font> [style] <size> <x> [left|middle|right] 
  <y> [top|middle|bottom] <color> [exec|eval] "text"
</quote>

Every time I use this element with (testing with "splash_manager -c demo -t <name>") splash_manager complains:
parse error @ <line of text element>

My current text line (in my .cfg file):
text silent /etc/splash/GentooOnTux/impact.ttf u 10 300 middle 300 middle #ffffff "12345"

Could you please try to upgrade to 1.1.9.10 (and make sure that the 'truetype' flag is set for splashutils)?

Comment 2 Jacob Floyd 2005-12-31 10:32:18 UTC

OK. I will try, and report in a moment.

Comment 3 Jacob Floyd 2005-12-31 13:32:56 UTC

Thanks, 1.9.10 fixed the problem.

Comment 4 Jacob Floyd 2005-12-31 13:33:49 UTC

~1.1.9.10
