How to write text over a rectangle when pause

Hello all!

I want to make a tutorial scene, where I call a pause everytime that have an explanation of the game, but creating a black transparency rectangle to fade the game, and over this rectangle I put some text and make a hole on this rectangle to focus a specific part of the scene.

Any idea, example or something?

thx

It might be easier to fade out the layers with a block...

scene > view > fade layer

...rather than using a large actor. Then, you can put your text / actors on the top of the faded layers.

I dont know if I get it, but Ill try.

can you post a print of a simple example of that you sayd please?

thx
