I think I asked this question before, but did not get an answer that I could use.
I want to create a multi line ticker with a few graphics to use in soccer and horse racing...
One ticker to have 2 lines of text, one above the other...

Here is what I want to accomplish....1 graphic, 2 lines of type



I want to be able to have this layout running for each race, where all horses and riders would be displayed

You didn't provide answers to the questions there either
Now you are even adding multiple/mixed colors, fonts etc and another sport too

I mixed the colours on purpose, but that is not what I want, I did that to show I want 2 lines, colours is not important....

Then why show it that way , that is pointless.

In PM you said you were going to provide the graphics and the exact desired layout in order to create for you but never followed up on that . has been more than a month ago now. But you rather re-ask the question as you "forgot" your initial post and subsequent communication and responding to the request in previous post wasting my and others their valuable time .

Let me quote the questions asked in your previous post as clearly you are not checking up on it https://forums.vmix.com/...-Ticker-Titles#post94238

Quote:
Do you have a visual example?
How is the data received and split as individual data items?
Really sure you want to display this with a ticker?


Instructions given through PM: (also never responded)

Quote:

Put the items that have to be in the ticker in a separate layer, they can be positioned mid ticker as if this individual was halfway for example . if needed specify where items have to appear or disappear in cases of not full width screen display of ticker itself , give the ticker items already names that makes sence to you and your data binding (datasource)

If you provide (exactly how it needs to look) something like

Tcontent.JPG (219kb) downloaded 4 time(s).

for something like



maybe we can talk

Mind you:
- be sure about your individual data source content columns
- Each textbox is of FIXED length ( no change possible, auto resize text within is) !
- Images will need full location path in datasource or in the data source format field!
- The Ticker content box if of FIXED size (no change possible) !
- want to stitch separate data content as one you will need to script! (say name plus weight etc)
- Ticker speed can add space between block , but not less (combination of ticker speed and datasource auto next timing)!
- Proper triggers for starting and stopping auto next datasource, ability to start at first row etc is needed and other input settings when overlaid
- Make sure layout matches backgrounds and top layer in case of covering up parts and other not ticker content parts
- Make your design proper looking , not as crappy as above example
- did I mention scripting for more controlled displaying ?
- i do not design graphics and layouts! (below are inspired by online videos)

This is exactly what I need....need it like last week.....The example in the first video is perfect....don't want anything too fancy, just simple that I could update quickly, and add more entries as needed......I have races on Saturday, and I wish I could get that set up
