The Mark Text plug-in allows you to highlight or underline words in a text string.

Mark Text Properties

• Text to Mark: Sets the text that should be highlighted. The text is case sensitive.

• Marks spaces: Also allows to put the marker between words.

  • Please verify your scene when using the Mark Space option on single words located at the end of the textbox. In some rare conditions, it may happen that the selection does not match the expected result.

• Multiple marks: Highlights all matched text.

• Use regular expression: Allows regex to be used for more sophisticated highlighting. 

  • Only matched group: Highlights only on capture-groups (value), other matched texts outside capture-groups or inside non-capture-groups (?:value) are not.

  • Case insensitive: Matches both upper and lower case.

  • Grammar: Selects one of the following supported grammars:

    • ECMA

    • Basic

    • Extended

    • Awk

    • Grep

    • Egrep

• Mark: Selects which text should be highlighted. Available options are foreground (Front), background (Shadow), Both and None. Background highlights the text’s shadow.

• Size: Sets the thickness of the highlight.

• Position: Sets the y-position of the highlight in relation to the text.

• Depth: Sets the z-position of the highlight in relation to the text. This allows the highlight to move behind the text.

• Foreground Color: Sets the color and alpha value of the highlight.
