@sdetweil said in Creating a text box that scrolls continuously horizontally:

which is the whole point of the scroll , yes? otherwise u just display it…

Thank you very much unfortunately I don’t have the technical skills to convert or adapt any of the existing modules to do this.

The problem there is this

It is geared for a news feed and I don’t know how to change that to the content of my choice.

The scroll window is small so in the case of longer quotes I would not be able to see the entire quote at once.

Also The space marked in grey in unused so that would make it ideal for something like longer quotes.

I have the Penguin Dictionary of quotations, is there there a way of scrolling the text continuously like with the news feed but horizontally

Below is where I think it would would fit best since some quotes are quite long.

In a MS Word format the dictionary is 85 Pages at about 500000 words

Thanks I do that except when I get to the error I am not sure how to fix it.

Can I send the code over to you as I cannot get mine to work and breaks the config file

Great thanks, just drop in Google Drive if that is ok with you.

@sdetweil The first two options give me a window that I can drag and drop to the second vertical screen

Unfortunately the scaling is still a problem.

Hi apologies I have tried but no luck.

I will try again.

@bhepler Thanks I will try

@BKeyport Thank you I will

Copied from my config js file

var config = {electronOptions:{x:1920 },
address: “localhost”, // Address to listen on, can be:
// - “localhost”, “127.0.0.1”, “::1” to listen on loopback interface
// - another specific IPv4/6 to listen on a specific interface
// - “0.0.0.0”, “::” to listen on any interface
// Default, when address config is left out or empty, is “localhost”

Is that correct?
