Formatting Text

I know that probably like 1,000,000 users have already said this but is there a reason why your only able to have on font and one colour on sprite costumes, like, if I wanted Red text and then Blue text then I'd need two sprites so if I wanted it to
<next costume> or <hide> I'd need two scripts.

Re: Formatting Text

The workaround that I sometimes use, is to build the sprite with first one color of text, display it on the stage, then grab that portion of the stage and make a new sprite from it with the first text already on it.  Then I can add the second text color/font.  Really awkward! 

Another approach is to build the graphic in another program and import it as a sprite costumer.
