Overlapping Marks


Steps:

1. Download X-tra Editor 2.5 and run it.
2. Load up your map by clicking open and then going to where your map is and loading it.
3. Goto the Place you want to overlap and place the Followng mark Called a "Back Mark" It determines what appears in the back text: 
4. If You Want, find a color mark (Bottom Of The Page) And Place it after the overlap mark: 
5. Now Write the text you would like to appear: Text
6. Now Place This Mark Afterwards, "The Front Mark", it determines what appears in the front of the text: Text
7. Now Place Another Color Mark If You want: Text
8. Now Write The text You would like to appear over it: TextText
9. Now Make spaces at the end of the second word, preferrably tab marks. You can get them by pressing Tab in notepad, and then copying the Tab character into your map.

There You Have it, a 2x overlap (Works in Brief, Forces, Map name, Leaderboard, unit names and anywhere else)

3x Overlap

Steps:

1. Run X-tra 2.5 and Load your map
2. Do the same thing you did above except when you get here, place the back mark again: TextText
3. Put another color mark if you wish: TextText
4. Write the Text you would like to appear their: TextTextText
5. Keep making spaces until it's perfectly overlapped, use the space again to help with this process, takes a while to get right.


There You Have it, a 3x Overlap! Can also be used anywhere
It's all about trial and error. But here are things to think of.
The overlapping back mark centers the text.
The overlapping front mark moves the text to the right.
So if you put tabs, characters, or spaces after the overlapping front mark text, it'll be farther away from the right and be closer to the center.
Hard to explain. Do you get it?
