With this piece of code (represented as an object: obj_text_box), you can make any text, given any font, any color, and any size, react when the mouse cursor is set uppon it. Either if it's as simple as a dot ("."), or as complex as a whole sentece ("Hello world!"), a dynamically defined "collision" box will sorround your text, and it will react! Watch the example video to understand how it works.
