Hints

• Possible transformations with \t:
  • Colors: \1c, \2c, \3c, \4c, \c
  • Alpha: \1a, \2a, \3a, \4a, \alpha
  • Border: \bord, \xbord, \ybord
  • Shadow: \shad, \xshad, \yshad
  • Transformations: \fr, \frz, \frx, \fry, \fax, \fay, \fscx, \fscy
  • Blur: \be, \blur
  • Font: \fs, \fsp
  • Clips (rectangle): \clip, \iclip
• All times are in milliseconds
• Coordinates reach until 1/8 units (except drawing code)
• Blur affects outline, but if there's no outline, it affects the whole object (text or shape)
• If there's no \org defined, the ancher point of alignment is the orientation point for transformations
• Accelerated movement can be realized by z-axis rotation with a far away \org or stretching (\fscx and \fscy transformation) an invisible shape at the beginning of dialog line.
• Shapes and characters are sitting on the baseline, defined by the biggest shape or character in dialog line.
  Shapes with {} before and characters will be right-shifted in position by the sum of width of characters/shapes before.
  Minimum shape x/y coordinates less than zero can be used for left/top shifting. Minimum shape x/y coordinates greater than zero can be used for right/bottom shifting.
