[Geomerative library] Parkinson text editor

[6 Replies]

Hello there,
I'm trying to make a simplified "parkinson" text editor. I used two snippets to build it but I have two main issues :

- the return button doesn't work, only makes a space

- there are lines between letters that I'd like to remove, but I can't figure this out.

I use geomerative library. Could you please help me ? Here's my code :

6. Title : TypoGeo_Wiggle
7. Date : 01/03/2011
8. Version : v0.5
9. More motion but this time with a random movement
10. to make the text wiggle. Again key'A' to freeze.
