For the “Modify Text” action with variable conditions. The example consists …of a text button menu using instances of the same text object with mouse-over effects inside a function. It's an ideal method for those that prefer to have fewer objects in their list plus want an easier/faster way of changing both the text and most styles through events. Another possible use is for a GUI that has several text objects which need to change frequently such as score, coins, inventory, etc. I hope it helps someone. Please feel free to suggest improvements; maybe needs more comments or further explanation? http://www.mediafire.com/file/4dqtlmyqhcomce6/Dynamic_Text_Menu_Example.zip/file Note: The text specified via "modify text" isn't visible until preview. It will say whatever may be in the text object (in the example, it's 'menu item').
