[Xerte] Text entry colour

OK, I just added those four additional optional properties to the
textEntry icon:

inputFont - a string, i.e. Verdana
inputSize - i.e. 24
inputColour - i.e. #RRGGBB (note the html formatting for the colour)
inputBold - a 1 or a 0

download and enjoy.

Not so concise, but:

rs.setNewTextFormat(new TextFormat('Verdana', 12, 0xFF0000, true));

using the first method with a perpetual interaction will work. I should
add those properties to the icon itself, because you might not want
perpetual interactions for some good reason

I would add

inputFont
inputColour
inputWeight
inputSize

I think - any others?

Is there a similar way to make it bold?

Alternatively you can set STYLES.inputColour = '#FFFF00'; and change the
values as you set more textEntries up. Notice the colour is formatted
differently in the two approaches.

- Give the textEntry an rs property myTxt
- make the interaction perpetual
- in a script afterwards set myTxt.textColor = 0xFF0000;
