  5. Open Context Menu to see the author of the description.

Features:
  • Prop Description Tool gun.
  • Display author.
  • Vertical Position.
  • Multiline.
  • Center of Screen mode.
  • Lite version mode.
  • Highly customizable: color, transparency, size, align, distance, etc...

You can configure, change and customize a few variables from the config file if you want to get a bit deeper. Both CenterOfScreen and Lite version mode can be activated in the config file.

I know this is a long shot, but if you made this compatible with save games (I mainly use HL2 save methods over gm_save), I would be eternally grateful. If you catch my drift :Dosh:

The text is not loaded after saving, alas.

When the Prop Description was made, it was thought as a server tool. If you want to change the settings you would have to go in the addon files and open the file "[*]/prop_description/lua/autorun/propdescription_config.lua", in that file you would have all the easy configurations that you can make.

But, in case you are not known with server management. You would need to extract the addon (.gma file) using gmad. There are a lot of tutorials how to extract addons.
After that you can put those files in a folder with your addons and change the configurations as you want (Last image of the addon in the workshop).

But... if this is not something you 100% need or you have no patience, I wouldn't spend much time. Or maybe you want to explore and give it a try, its up to you. All my other addons have and will always have an easier configuration, but this addon was made to be like this.

How do you do multiline? How do you change the setting beyond line height.

Please can you figure out how to do it? I'll love you for ever.

That was something I tried to do a while ago, but there was no documentation about it and I eventually stopped developing addons to gmod. Sorry.

Is there a way to set this up to work with the perma prop tool? This would be absolutely perfect for my roleplay server.

You have to change it in the config file.
Go to your addons folder and: prop_description > lua > autorun > propdescription_config.lua
Open the file and change the line 26 to: PropDescription.validClasses = {"prop_*", "npc_*"}

That means you can use it on any entity that starts with the name "prop_" and "npc_". I could update the addon to make it so you could change the settings ingame, but this addon is an old version.
