Abstract

Lets AGS have multiple TextBoxes on multiple GUIs

Dependencies

AGS 2.71 or later

Functions

Most of the functionality is automatic when the module is imported.

However, the following function is used internally but may also be

handy for users, so is made available

 Label *MultiTextBox.HighlightCloseLabel(GUIControl *gc, int color);

Finds the labels with the closest top-left corner to this GUIControl

and sets it to have the specified colour

Caveats

Configuring may require editing the module: e.g. if you don't want

the highlighting, etc. I didn't want to have too many config

options as the code runs in rep_ex_always and might get slowed up.
