Android Question Teleprompter

[hub73]

Hello.
I am thinking about programming a teleprompter for a 7 inch tablette.
But i've not idea to begin.
I need to vertical scroll a 'wrap' text'
Could you help me with your idea ?
- Perhaps an EditText item on a panel and next vertical scroll the panel ?
- Perhaps just en EditText and some code to automaticcaly scroll the text ? (i don't know if it's possible to control the text scroll with code)
Many thanks.

Even an xCustomListView with its AddTextItem since, given text size and font, you should know how many chars show on a single line.

Did you look at this thread?

[B4X] BBScrollingLabel - rich text scrolling label

(this is an animated gif, it is is much smoother in real usage) BBScrollingLabel is similar to XUI Views ScrollingLabel, however it is based on BCTextEngine and can therefore display formatted text. It is cross platform. Usage instructions: - Download the b4xlib and put it in the B4X...
