      I am trying to achieve the effect of text being typed, say in the contest of someone composing email or posting a question to an online forum. Anyone have any suggestion on how to achieve a letter at a time arrival of text... maybe even an occasional stop and backspace to change wording as if the typist is self editing as they go. Any help is much appreciated.

        Here a quick solution for the typewriting effect. But to get the feeling of misspellings and correcting would be a bit more complex. Maybe with a second Text actor that contains the misspellings and that one triggered at the write time and then the one again with the right spelling. Just an idea.

        Is now attached in my next post.

            Mmmh, I could not open it myself anymore, so I had to do it over again. Here is the new version and hope it opens, but you have to have version 2.1.

                I extended Michels patch a little with controls and therefore with a couple of little functions like next / previous text buttons or a backspace function. Michels work is always full of little things like the double puls with a random. I would have never thought of this. (Thanx michel)

                    I have been thinking of this. There must be a way to input text live.
