In PSP 8 I recorded a trivial script (pasted in full below) to add some arbitrary text and centre it horizontally. (Despite its simplicity it generated an astonishing amount of code!) It works as expected.
But can anyone show me how to edit this so that instead of that specific text string it will add whatever text is on the Windows clipboard please?
Code: Select all
# This script was recorded. I simply added some arbitary text 'My added text' and horizontally centered it.
# Font size seems to be specified in lines 44 and 82
# And text string specified in line 95; its position appears to be in lines 46 & 84, although I don't know how to relate the numbers '820.5,220.5' to the actual position I see in the image.
