Title: Text 'exiting' pixel matrix
Post by: Greg.Ca on April 19, 2015, 07:28:19 PM
I am still using the last version of 3.63?? Not any version yet of 4.?? however I would like to request that when text 'exits' my matrix, it has special effects. Currently I use text quite extensively on my matrix and we have very cool effects when text 'enters' the matrix but no 'exiting' effects when its time to have the line of text 'leave' the screen. I can have text enter from the top, left, right or bottom and even diagonally f ill the screen but with version 3.63?? there is no way to have any special cool effects when text 'leaves' the screen.

I would like to request some newer effects and also have 'exiting' effects so that I can control how test 'leaves' my matrix.

I have seen at sports stadiums that when text 'leaves' the screen, it sometimes 'spins' as it is exits the screen or I have seen one character at a time enters quickly or exits quickly.  Very cool and professional looking. Is this possible with this new version??

Thanks for your consideration. --Greg--

we can look at this in 4.0, we are no longer doing any development on 3.6

Have you tried 4.0?

Sean, I haven't tried any versions of 4.0 yet. Still to busy building more hardware boxes. Once 4.0 is officially released then I will try it. My understanding is that it still doesn't drive any lights yet?? Not sure.

I'm losing my last helper after this school year and right now I'm concentrating on building more hardware boxes. I should have a 150 X 60 megatree this year and a 84 X 128 matrix on the porch. Still in development. Should be a go by this Christmas. Also trying to build a 3360 pixel tree topper star. Also in development. Big things are coming from the west end of Highlands Ranch. See you next meeting. --Greg--
