Sorry if I bothers anybody with this (and other stuff), but i have really difficult question about two Textcolors. I mean:
Text start with red color an getting to green. How to make a text(in Warcraft), which have two colors? I don't mean:
|cff00FF00Text|r|cffFF0000Text|r:
This is [Color][Color], but I mean that a color changes from one to an other color, e.g. Green to Red.

theres no fuctino to do that, you need to do a color for each character

Tim.
There are color programs in our resource database and at sites like Wc3s that offer this feature. However like Immoralis said, you will need a color code per character. The programs only generate the correct codes for you.

You mean text like this?

Use this tool - http://wc3sear.ch/index.php?p=Tools&ID=47&sid=

EDIT: This tool makes automatically ready code just to copy-paste to warcraft... not only the codes for one character but whole text

Thanks guys, you're really nice. It is nice to see that more skilled people help lesser skilled one and not just turning away. That's honorable.

Just something to be keeping in mind when using stuff like this:

These colour codes tend to generate obscenely long strings, and as we all know, Warcraft has a finite string limit. So storing shit like this in caches, variables or even just for use in displayed strings can cause some serious uh-ohs.

FYI - Trying to put overlong strings into caches or variables causes editor crashes, and could result in loss of progress.

What about normal Tooltips? Does it work with it (Unit,Ability,Item names ?).

yeah, but again I think it counts towards the maximum character count of 1023 it seems, would really appreciate it if someone could verfiy that value for me.

BBcodes, HTML, Warcraft III when you are making gradients. You can also add other types yourself. When you are exporting colors you have more preset options.
