Hello everyone. New to the forums, so please feel free to direct me to another thread if this has been answered (but I did look...)
Fairly simple scenario:
* Four rows of data. Two columns
* Ticker category "Title" in column 1
* Ticker content in column 2
When using Auto Next and Loop, is there a way to cause the Column 1 (Title) to advance to the next row only after the ticker content in the same row finishes scrolling?
I have read about monospaced fonts and timing the rows, etc. But I'm looking for a solution that will work with the same font that is used in the other graphics in my titles and the ticker content will not be consistent length from row to row or week to week, as it is updated in my production.
Is there an "advanced" solution for this in vMix? Or am I out of luck. Appreciate any insight on this topic. Thanks!

Wont work with Auto Next and Loop unless your ticker content are all of the same length and timed properly ( ticker type set to Add) Is achievable using a script that times the duration based on the lenght of the text (and a few more criteria) before going to the next row

Good feedback. Confirmed my suspicions.
Anyone with basic Scripting knowledge willing to comment?
