Hello
Is it possible to create a scroller?
For example - I have a text in bitmap, that displays over panorama, but it's too long (does'n fit to the designed window). I don't want to divide it into few different parts, but have one big file.
I was thinking about that, but I don't know how to hide unwanted part of an image... It should hide directly under panorama, but how... Maybe there is something like a mask, that can be specyfied to an element (such as uielement)
Can anyone put some light on this subject?
Re: Scroll
Scrolling something, as in moving it across the screen, is not a problem. Masking so you see only a part of the element at any one time is trickier, if not impossible. Depending on your design, you may be able to put something 'on top of' the part(s) you don't want to show, but SPi-V does not have any mechanisms to do clipping or masking. It is not going to be easy to add/implement it to SPi-V either...
I will keep this request in the back of my mind and see if I can think of a way to implement it.
