How to show scrolling text when text character length is more then text field width.

Question

I have text field width 50. But string length is more than text field width so need to implement scrolling effect, if string length is greater than text field width then string will animate with scrolling effect right to left continuously.

Hello,

 

a text owns the property "ScrollOffset", this property decides the beginning of the text inside its area. You can change this value continuously by an "PonitEffect" that effects is movement.

Therefore just use the "Outlet" of the PointEffect.

 

Kind regards

Hi,

the point effect needs to be enables ("Enabled") and of course the timing and values ("Value1","Value2") also needs to configure for specific behaviour.

Kind Regards
