I know how to make a type writer effect …Im having trouble adding textFormat to it as it types though

each time a new letter is added it clears the Formatting…does anyone know a way around this? I tried using htmlText = “\<b\>asd\</b\>”  
but then it fails to recognise the tags since its loading one letter at a time, i made and algorithm to recognize a tag and put the whole tag into the htmlTx…but that didnt work either…
