TV output widget code

Where is the code for the TV output widgets? I haven’t been able to find it!

What I’m doing is using the marquee widget to scroll a list of images in a row across the top of the page. It’s working great, except it scrolls the images across the page and clear off the page before the head of the list starts across again. I’m needing it to be a continuous loop, like the image scroller used in the iPod intro on the apple.com page. I could easily enough use their scrolling js script, but I’d rather use native MODx widgets if at all possible.

/manager/media/script/bin/

found the file; tmplvars.format.inc.php. Now to get it to do what I want.

Funny! Did a Google search for information on the webelm.js library, and the first item was an entry in the MODx bug tracker!

Hello,

Despite the warning that I should consider starting a new topic I reply to this topic because I came here through a search and the topic fits to my own case

Under /manager/media/script/bin/ I’ve found the marquee.js and examined it to get an idea if I can use this code to make my marquee scroll continuously. However, if I’m correct there is no parameter in this marquee.js with which I can make the marquee scroll continuously. I suppose that I’m using the widget correctly because my Ditto call that I put in the "Default value" works fine and scrolls.
Sottwell mentioned the tmplvars.format.inc.php, I also looked at this file but no clue.

Can someone point me in a better direction?

Thanks!

Hello again,

I looked again (and better) at tmplvars.format.inc.php and I found the section where the marquee is created (case "marquee"). At some point the div marqueeContent is generated to display the contents of the marquee. Would it be a solution to have this div generated twice? Or would this postpone the time that the empty space appears?
Or, is it impossible to create a continuously scrolling marquee with this script? I’d appreciate it if someone told me so. In the meanwhile I’ll look for a replacement script.

Best regards,
Andres

Hi,

I must be missing something very obvious here as none replies

Seriously: I found a script that should make the marquee start over again but it was done by applying equal line-heights and font-sizes. Apparently this is not a simple subject.

best regards,

Andres
