Easy,

Make sure you have in your keymap "chat copy " and "chat paste"
(I bind copy to ctrl -c and paste to ctrl-v

Now,

Open up your e-mail (in game) and start typing, it will filter the first "\" out when you go to type your color codes.

Once you are done typing up everything, copy it, then paste it into your house sign text at the management terminal.

You'll need to edit out the extra backslashes (i.e change \\#RRGGBB\\ to \#RRGGBB\ )

I believe you have to make it in notepad or the like first, then cut and paste into name in game. So you'll need to do some key remapping.

LOL posted same time as Aviatrix

But yea, what Avia said.

You know... I'll have to try notepad. It's funny how SWG shares the windows copy/paste buffer.

Notepad is what I use myself when doing signs on multi-lines, it makes it a lot easier to get the color and wording just right as the \ character shows up so I don't have any problem copying it... and it's only logical that anything you copy goes into your computer's clipboard... all of the other programs that you can copy from/paste to do. Your computerdoes, after all, only have one clipboard.

The clipboard is nothing that belongs to the computer itself... it belongs to the OS

Ok - I realize when it's time to ask for help, and I am at that point.

I'd like to make a multi-line sign as well.

I did the rebind. If I type something into the chat box, I can copy it and paste it there.

I can copy something from notepad and paste it into the chat box. I am unable to copy

from the in-game e-mail, nor can I seem to paste into the e-mail box, or the house namebox.

Am I doing something wrong, or is it possible that with the new patch you can only copy/paste

INthe chat box??

Could someone who can make a multi-line name please verify forme??

Thanks in advance!
