Vertical scroll plugin

Post by nsa666666 »

I dont know if somebody wanted it but i thought it is a usefull feature for RSS-feeds.

It is the 0.2 Alpha of the plugin. Please use following syntax:


$dll(verticalscr,1,[horizontal size of lcd],[Your very long text])
$dll(verticalscr,2,[line number],[horizontal size of lcd])
...

for example:

$dll(verticalscr,1,16,$Rss(http://www.wired.com/news_drop/netcente ... nter.rdf,b))
$dll(verticalscr,2,2,16)
$dll(verticalscr,2,3,16)
$dll(verticalscr,2,4,16)

will scroll wired.com feed at 16x4 display.

welcome to community.

Great plugin...

It was an old request check this: http://www.lansley.co.uk/forum/phpBB2/v ... +scrolling


Just a couple of notes about users:
:arrow: check the "Don't scroll this line" in each line for better result.
:arrow: the example $dll(verticalscr,1,16,$Rss(http://www.wired.com/news_drop/netcente ... nter.rdf,b)) is wrong the correct is $dll(verticalscr,1,20,($Rss(http://www.wired.com/news_drop/netcente ... nter.rdf,b))) you have missed one bracket set!

One more for you:
:arrow: can you increase a bit the min refresh intreval for best visible results? (the scrolling is too fast for reading)

Thank you for testing.

I've increased the refresh intervall to 1,5s.(Please use old download link).

With my version of LCD-smartie (5.3.2.17) it works without barkets. :roll:

P.S.: It is better if you have an LCD with 4 rows.

I have tested it in both two and four lines.

My eyes are rolling in both cases :shock:

Already checked for DNBridge.dll but failed to notice that .NET 2.0 required. Doh!

It seems like if you use it more than once (on two different screens), on the second screen shows the remaining piece of paragraph left in the first screen when the screen changes.
