    Hi, I need to create a text object, where the user can choose its font and size from a dropdown menu. To do so, I used HTML puzzles to create a dropdown list of options.

    I created my text objects in Blender. And with using the “update text objects” puzzle I can easily change the typing with the user’s input. Yet, how can I access the text font and size from Blender to be able to change it with the choice from the dropdown menu?

    You need to do it with a specific puzzle in init tab like this.
    Look at Jewelry Configurator demo how properly setup drop down menu with font choice.

    Hello Mikhail,

    I’ve got this already in the init tab. I just don’t know how to access the “font” and “size” values in the text object that was created in Blender. Is there any way to do it (the preferable way)? Or to UPDATE the properties of the “create text object” (plan B)? For plan B: this puzzle creates the text object but doesn’t update it. At least I don’t know how to do it.

    TO change size you need to recreate a new object each time you change the size. You can to it with puzzle create text object.

    Thank you Mikhail, that actually worked! It’s kind of a walk-around but works indeed.
