Hi,

I would like to know what components or techniques should be used to make the News Ticker on the assembler, as is done in Borland Delphi environment. The architectural solution is important because it helps flexibly manage the component and paste multilevel lines, icons, and links, as in the program TheBat! For different kind of help I would be very grateful!

Example for News-Ticker can be seen in the famous program TheBat! I mean just a scrollable list of new messages, MessageTicker.

Thanks in advance

Please make an effort and
a) explain what you want, e.g. with a screenshot
b) provide a URL to that "famous" newsticker

search the forum for "text scroller"

BTW, don't search for "text scroller" using "search" in upper right corner - it only shows dedndave's post!

You have to use the "search" listed after "home" and "help" on the left.

Maybe that's obvious but it's confused me b4
I am NaN ;)

lol - it only searched the current thread

that's the general idea
however, if you google for images of "TheBat!"
it would seem that it just uses "normal" statusbar text
you could do that char by char, i suppose

Thank you! I searched "Ticker" component, but not like the "scroller". Examples with scrollers I found on the old forum. I made a screenshot of the mailer.

:t In fact, very similar to the statusbar text, for easy application probably will be more convenient to use. I'll try to make this version  :icon14:

if you want "smooth scrolling", you'll have to create your own statusbar window
although, i have seen guys put graphics in a statusbar - i've never played with it
