MarqueePane looping

[vangelisl]

Hello,
I know its not possible with the current code, but could you recommend a way of making the marquee pane seem like its endlessly looping, for example when the text its displaying ends, have the head of the text right behind it, like a real life marquee.
Thank you.

Please try duplicate the first several characters in the end in your displaying string based on the width of the MarqueePane and set the timer accordingly so that it looks like it's an endless loop.

For example, if you want to display "GOOG 429.11 -6.51 DIA 87.64 -0.1 FXI 39.19 +1.12 GLD 93.62 -0.21 USO 39 +0.81 MSFT 22.25 +0.17", you could make the string to "GOOG 429.11 -6.51 DIA 87.64 -0.1 FXI 39.19 +1.12 GLD 93.62 -0.21 USO 39 +0.81 MSFT 22.25 +0.17 GOOG 429.11 -6.51 DIA 87.64 -0.1 ".

Since the width of the MarqueePane is limited, if you have a long unknown string, you could programmatically copy the first several letters (which is decided by the width of the MarqueePane) of the string and append them to the end.
