Roku Developer Program

I just got around to reading the email about the new SDK - looks exciting. By the way, do you plan on updating the online version of the email to include the links that are missing? Anyway, as I work on a channel for someone else and he keeps asking me about what is possible, the latest question had to do with text formatting. I had to respond that there is NO formatting available for any of the text screens. Will the new SDK have some capability for text formatting? I'm not looking for HTML support, but it would be nice to at least have the ability to use tab stops and bold text.

Yeah, something happened with our sending of the email. I'll post the whole thing here.

If you use roImageCanvas, you'll be able to place text anywhere on the screen you want (though I don't believe tab stops are supported) and you'll be able to supply TTF or OTF fonts to use as part of that.

Cool, thanks!
