Limited to 10 text entries?

[piltrafus emeritus]

Hi. The reticle accepts more than 10 text entries in the attribute editor, however, only the first 10 actually show in the viewport.
Is there any hardcoded limitation to the number of displayable text entries? Can be lifted?
I couldn't find anything in the source files.

Thanks.

I'm running into the same thing...anyone know of any way to increase this limit?

Actually there is a hardcoded limit. Look at function spReticleLoc::getTextData() in spReticleLoc.cpp:

There  is a loop like this:

for (int i = 0; i < numPlugs && i < 10; i++ )

Change it to:

for (int i = 0; i < numPlugs; i++ )

to get rid of the limitation.

Good luck,
Peter
