| style="width:40%;" | '''Visionaire Studio''' is not all about clicking everywhere. We also have are own built-in text editor which allows you further ''enhance'' what is already possible with the editor alone.You can use it to further enhance your game, or to speed up workflow; which is all fandango, if you are more used to coding than ''wysiwyg'' visual development. Most of the available action parts can be accessed or manipulated through the [[Data_Structure|data structure]] tables or [[Compiled_Index_of_Lua_Scripts_for_Visionaire_Studio|functions]] we have already created, but you can still write your own custom functions and scripts with ease. All it takes is a little time and patience to get to grips with, and you will soon be banging scripts out left, right and center. We fully support Lua 5.1 and the openGL ES 2.0 shader language. Our text editor is based on [http://www.scintilla.org/ Scintilla]. Here are some of the available features: * Lua (5.1) & GLSL shader language (es 2.0) * Color syntax highlighting * Collapsible blocks * Import/read/write external files * More in the future... || [[File:mp_text_editor_1.png|650px]]
