The hard part:
have it's inputs set as "Automatically restart with stransition "

The easy part:
Have a trigger on overlaying in that calls a script that checks how long its content is , relate that to the speed of the ticker taking into account the width of the ticker frame itself and the fontsize character width used plus the time it takes for the last character to travel the whole width of the ticker to calculate the total time needed before transitioning out .

or take a stopwatch , time how long it takes until text has gone by (in preview) to use as a delay after overlaying in each time one changes the content

pretty simple basically

and this sounds not so good ;) ... i know the len of the text a short time before i will use it. So not enougth time for me to "time-stop" the len. So, its better to calculate the time or the position. But for the position i need a "gettextleninpixel function". A simple (charwidth * textlen) is not enougth if the font is not fixed len. (Or i must build up a function what do that for me)

i never use the script-part of vmix before. Did u have a litle example for me to do this calculation?


THX.
