Add a richtext.remove equivalent for characters about defold-richtext

[britzl]

Could you please be a bit more specific about exactly what you expect from such a function? Could you give an example of how it would be used and what the expected result is?

Well remove does this.

richtext.remove(words)

Removes all gui text nodes created by richtext.create()
I was hoping for an equivalent for the same function for
richtext.characters.

Since a similar existing function already existed I thought to ask for it.

Though my use case currently is that currently I get the result of create. And replace some of the words with the characters like:

Words = richtext.create("some sentence")

local temp = richtext.characters(Words[1])
richtext.remove(Words[1])
Words[1] = temp.

On cleanup I would like to do the same as

richtext.remove(Words) or a similar
richtext.removeCharacters(Word[1])

to simplify cleanup. Probably easy to do manually but thought I should ask since a similar function already exists
