Hi,
Is there any way to draw all the text objects above all the sprites.
I am wondering if there is a single command for this.
I know that I can 'split' the sync() command but in this case I have to draw all of my sprites one by one. I don't want this

thanks

There is a SetTextDepth() command. It works like all the other set depth commands do

Thanks for your response, but as I mentioned before it would be nice if there were a single command for all text objects.

It works just the same as sprites, you have to set each of these individually too. Everything starts at depth 10.
I tend to create a function that sets all of the defaults for a sprite or text or anything else...

setTextDefaults(textID)

By calling this function after creating your text, you can set the default depth, alignment etc.
