How to select only "Kola" and "out of character" stay white color?

Each selectable text must be its own seperate TextDraw. Adjust the TextDrawSetSize parameters until the area matches your desired clickable area. The TextDrawSetSize areas can't overlap.

Excuse me.. what is TextDrawSetSize? you mean TextDrawTextSize right?

Edit: gosh, I am not trying to disrespect Kalcor, I was just wondering if there was a new function that he didn't mention in the RC thread...

Haha was just kidding by the way

So if i understood well from the conclusion if you set the text size bigger which will end to be part with other textdraw it will make 2 textdraws clickable by mistake?

I will probably create a GUI library to make things easier for myself and many others who is facing the problem, misunderstanding with the term textdraw.

Yes, I did so for each selectable text separate textdraw.
Look at this as an example:

pawn Код:

Stats[7] = TextDrawCreate(219.000000, 122.000000, "In character");
TextDrawAlignment(Stats[7], 2);
TextDrawBackgroundColor(Stats[7], 255);
TextDrawFont(Stats[7], 1);
TextDrawLetterSize(Stats[7], 0.239999, 0.999999);
TextDrawColor(Stats[7], 7660031);
TextDrawSetOutline(Stats[7], 0);
TextDrawSetProportional(Stats[7], 1);
TextDrawSetShadow(Stats[7], 1);
TextDrawUseBox(Stats[7], 1);
TextDrawBoxColor(Stats[7], 0);
TextDrawTextSize(Stats[7], 269.000000, 66.000000);
TextDrawSetSelectable(Stats[7], 1);

For some reason you have to reverse the TextDrawTextSize width/height when using alignment = 2 (centered). This is something to do with GTA:SA. It's not designed by SA-MP.

https://sampwiki.blast.hk/wiki/TextDrawTextSize

try:

pawn Код:

TextDrawTextSize(Stats[7], 20.0, 269.0);

If multiple text is still selected, change 20.0 to 15.0 or 10.0.

Do we need to play with the coordinates now to acquire the best result or just reverse the exact value?
