A long term complaint and many requests have revolved around spacing issues when using vMix Social with a ticker, usually a top-scrolling ticker.

The issue (and frankly ugliness) arises from the fact that the spacing between social posts either has to have:

I can enter pages of text into the ticker element in a title and have it space out perfectly. When social feeds the same ticker, there are gaps because the ticker in "add" mode only allows a fixed sized block per post.

What is needed is an AutosizedTextBlock which will resize the block vertically based on font size and number of characters for the text in that block. Because font sizes don't always map nicely to pixel sizes, you'd have to weight the conversion a little on the big size. Even so, it would cut way down on these gaps.
