String Placement Help

I am messing around with Text
and Want to make sure its possible to switch a certain spots position with another
I have tried doing it but have yet to achieve
I feel it is possible and swear I have seen it happen
Please give me a quick example if so

Wait what are you trying to do?

Simply move a certain text position to another

like for example 11111118

to like 81111111

I’m a bit confused like deactivate a text device and reactivate a text device in its place

hold on i think you can

What does show players name have to do with text position?

You wanna move the text to another area or what?
Or do you wanna change what the text looks like

a simple text box showing 11118
and then I want it to them say 81111
the 1 at the beginning and the 8 swapped spots
I want that to happen

This is purely example just to know

I am trying to figure out how to do it In block code I have been unsuccessful

Whats your system rn

well I tried many things but this is the main gist

All you are trying to do is spawn the 8 from front to back?
Im not a big on code so this looks like a bunch of blocks sitting here…

Cuz i thought this was simple :sob:

yes simply just moving a letter to another spot

._. then why are you here

know what back to the shadows of testing
Enters the shadows hopefully emerging with his solution since no one else has figured it out yet

Ah, the issue you’re probably having is with your emojis. Emojis are more than 1 character long, so you have to get the substring instead of just the letter number. The length depends on the emoji.

The length of the white square is 2, so you’d have to get a substring of 2 characters. I wouldn’t recommend using other characters of different lengths, since text strings work best if they’re all the same length.

I even tried with normal strings like letters or numbers

Well, you’re also trying to change Ant by NewPOS which are both text strings, so that doesn’t work.

Can you simply just tell me how to swap the positions of a string in the text
And I can lead off with that for my project til I run into another issue
