<div class="">Wow! This is a big surprise, Steve - thank you!</div>

<div class="">I really like these additions - to be able to write
signs in colors, and also, to be able to write some signs with
one symbol larger than the other, actually is useful for writing
depth - the smaller hand or symbol would be read as “further
away from the body", and the larger symbol would be read as
“closer to the body”…So this special styling is a great addition

<div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000" class=""> Hi
SignWriting list,<br class="">
<br class="">
Recently, I had the chance to talk with Jonathan Duncan
(SignWriter Studio) about several issues. One issue he
mentioned was size and color within a sign. It started
me thinking, and I made a few improvements to SignMaker
and the SignWriting 2010 Javascript library.<br class="">
<br class="">
I added padding, background color, and the colorize
option. Here is the sign for SignWriting with a padding
of 10, a background of "lightblue", and the colorized
option selected. These options are now available in
SignMaker on both the PNG and SVG tabs.<br class="">
<br class="">
<img apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes"
apple-inline="yes"
id="79C3C397-DB9A-4608-800C-DD79831331EC"
src="cid:part3.08090005.09020308@yahoo.ca" class=""
height="232" width="99"><br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
For programmers and power-users, I have created a new
type of string, called the styling string. The styling
string succinctly describes styling for the entire sign
and for individual symbols.<br class="">
<br class="">
The styling string for the above is: -CP10G(lightblue)
<br class="">
* C for colorize<br class="">
* P10 for a padding of 10<br class="">
* G(lightblue) for a background color of lightblue<br
class="">
<br class="">
You can use the styling string in SignMaker on the PNG
or SVG tabs. <br class="">
<br class="">
You can also use the styling string on the SignWriting
2010 Javascript library API page.<br class="">
<a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://slevinski.github.io/sw10js/api.html#sign">http://slevinski.github.io/sw10js/api.html#sign</a><br
class="">
<br class="">
For the FSW, enter the sign string with the styling
string at the end. For example:<br class="">
M523x535S10019478x475S10011502x466S2ea04507x502S2ea48485x510-CP10G(lightblue)<br
class="">
<br class="">
For the individual symbols within a sign, you can set
the color and size using a styling string. This is not
yet supported through the user interface of SignMaker,
except through the styling string. <br class="">
<br class="">
Here are 3 examples were individual symbols have been
doubled in size.<br class="">
<img apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes"
apple-inline="yes"
id="EC658CF8-CB7C-4DFD-8842-E151FDE76A0F"
src="cid:part5.00010504.06040308@yahoo.ca" class=""
height="107" width="249"><br class="">
<br class="">
<br class="">
The styling string is definitely not a plain text
concept, but it is useful. I've put a presentation
together about the concepts with some examples.<br
