Upon request, I made this simple plugin to make a text scrolls like this:
Image


Dll name: Scroll.dll
Author: PCJ
Version: 1.0

----------------
Install notes:
----------------
Simply copy the dll to the plugins folder

--------
Usage:
--------
$Dll(Scroll,1,[width],[text])

Text is the actual text or LCDSmartie variables to show on your LCD.
Width is the text length you want it to display on LCD.

----------
Example:
----------

Code: Select all

CPU: $dll(Scroll.dll,1,15,$CPUType)

Thanks

Hey thanks for making the plugin so quickly.

:D
A couple of options I could see this plugin doing of course its up to you

1- add a way to change speed of scroll effect for longer messages
2-make a way to run two messages at a time like

Code: Select all

CPU Type:$dll(Scroll.dll,1,15,$CPUType)CPU Speed:$dll(Scroll.dll,1,15,$CPUSpeed)
currently only shows first scroll effect on both codes

Again Thanks for the plugin it is much appreciated
