Graphics

I have editable text (Cougars) that I want to move from right to left continuously along x-axis. I've tried continuous animation with sawtooth graph, but it's not a smooth transition. And the text will not always stay the same length so even if I could get continuous animation to transition smoothly, it would change when the text changes. I appreciate any solutions you can provide.

I am attaching the project here:

My proposal:
- Create a text object and publish just this text object
- Create a text object and use it as a delimiter (double space or so)
- Create a text object and in Visual logic Concatenate first 2 text object and then concatenate it again 10 times or more in order to have enough text as 2 times width size.
- Create a new Scene Director just for the crawl job
- Create a quad and animate it and use it as a crawl leader, add an event to loop this scene - at the half of the text the scene will jump at the beginning of the text
- Divide final text width by 2 and multiply with quad move (from 0 to 1) and invers it to change the direction
- In the main scene director add a trigger to start the crawl text
- The crawl will start in sequence mode, where you cand change the text too

Hey Matt,

I came up with a very similar solution to another problem before seeing yours further down; see if this helps you!

Thanks, Rosca and Zachary for your suggestions. Both solutions worked. It took some tweaking to get everything working the way I wanted it to, but ultimately I was successful. Much appreciated to you both.
