  • name: - The global variable name that will be assigned, or for an anonymous fontstring.
  • drawLayer: - The layer the font should be drawn in.
  • templateName: - The name of a virtual template. If nil, the font string does not inherit any properties.
  • line: - The new fontstring object as a child of this frame.
  • Unlike s, FontStrings do not support sublayers, and will always be drawn above textures sharing the same layer.
