Android Question Using smart strings for Label or Button text

[mscientist33]

Label1.text=$"[Alignment=center][TextSize=20][b][color=0xff006688]"${rs.GetString("Title")}"[/color][/b]  [/TextSize][/Alignment]"$

The label text actually show $"[Alignment=center][TextSize=20][color=0xff006688]Hello World[/color] [/TextSize][/Alignment]"$

Can we use smart strings in this way for labels and buttons etc?

CSBuilder should do (mostly?) what you want, See: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/charsequence-csbuilder-tutorial.76226/

You need to assign that string to a BBLabel.

[B4X] BCTextEngine / BBCodeView - Text engine + BBCode parser + Rich Text View

Be open minded. This is a cross platform library with several features: - Text drawing engine. - Text layout engine. - BBCode parser. - Two custom views that connect everything: BBCodeView - multiline, scrollable with support for embedded views. BBLabel - lightweight label. - NEW...

I understand that cs builder can do it mostly but i'm wanting to know if it is possible to use smart strings. They are much much easier.

The question is really about BBCode, which is the format used by BCTextEngine and its views: BBCodeView, BBLabel, BBListItem, BCToast and maybe others.

So with normal buttons, labels etc we are to use cs builder. This is what I take the answer is.
