Subject: Re: Scrolling Text Automatically

Do you want/need continuous scrolling or would you settle for discrete/incremental scrolling? You could use tMsTextBox.u32 to auto scroll to a particular line, or you can add text dynamically and scroll to the top or bottom of the newly added text and otherwise programatically scroll to specific calculated lines. You can also highlight a given line.

Disadvantages are that you can't get anti-aliased text and if won't work on Mac.

tMsTextBox.u32 is available from http://mediashoppe.com/files

To sync the scrolling to the screen number, you can use one of the tools/methods posted by others on this thread.
