Hello.

I need to put in a form an horizontally scrolling text. Something like a StaticText (so I can set text style), but with the text scrolling horizontally, like a markee, just one line, one or two words. Anyone knows any control with this property, or how to do it programmatically in an easy way?

Tks !

Daniel

Hi,
?
I don't know any component. Basically you can do it with Canvas.TextOut(X, Y, string);. Use timer and OnTimer event will render the text in position x:=x-1. Better approach can be to create a "long" TBitmap with text and only copy the part of bitmap to canvas. Of course it depends on the length of text too. Solution with bitmap needs more memory but less CPU.? ?
Vojt?ch?

Thks Vojtech,
I'll try the Canvas.TextOut way.
I hope it doesen't blink, or so. Let's see.

I use a stringgrid
with the right properties set, you have no lines, no header, you can set the size easily to as much as you like. the only ?trick? you have to use is that you always have to insert to the first line and not the last ;)
