          try this in your custom.css

          
          .helloworld {
            height: 125px;
            width: 600px;
            overflow: hidden;
            position: relative;
          }
          
          .helloworld div {
            display: block;
            width: 100%;
            height: 130px;
          
            position: absolute;
            overflow: hidden;
          
            animation: marquee 10s linear infinite;
          }
          
          
          @keyframes marquee {
            0% { left: 50%; }
            100% { left: -100%; }
          }
          

          Do note, the Pi doesn’t handle css animations that good, it lacks hardware acceleration.

          The css is mostly taken from : https://codepen.io/jamesbarnett/pen/kfmKa

              @johnnyboy I just wanted to state the source, since I basically just copied the css code, (credit where credit is due :D )

              The css I posted above will scroll any text you enter in the config for the helloworld module, no need to alter any code.

                    I tried the code and it works … but in my case I call ‘helloworld’ twice in ‘config.js’ - one text in ‘upper_third’ and one in ‘bottom bar’.
                    Is there away to make only the text in ‘bottom bar’ to scroll ?

                      @zkab you can select all helloworld modules in region bottom with the selector .region.bottom .helloworld

                      Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track
