Displaying long texts in a small text area.

Hi,

Yes.

textArea.setTypedText(TypedText(T_MYLONGTEXT);
textArea.setWideTextAction(WIDE_TEXT_WORDWRAP);

You can do the same for something like chinese with:

textArea.setWideTextAction(WIDE_TEXT_CHARWRAP);

Is there also another solution? I don't want the long text in a new line. I would prefer when my text could running through the first line like a treadmill.

Hi @MHase​ 

I've tried the WIDE_TEXT_WORDWRAP but I need in one line too..

So I've implemented a function to rotate the Wildcard buffer, below you can find the function:

void Screen_MultimidiaView::string_rotate_right( char *s )
{
 size_t n = strlen( s );
 
 if ( n > 1 )
 {
 char c = s[n - 1];
 memmove( s + 1, s, n - 1 );
 *s = c;
 }
}
 
void Screen_MultimidiaView::string_rotate_left( char *s )
{
 size_t n = strlen( s );
 
 if ( n > 1 )
 {
 char c = s[0];
 memmove( s, s+1, n - 1 );
 s[n - 1] = c;
 }
}

This function rotate in one character, so for example you can call this function each second.
