Sending scroll message #3

Closed gurues closed 2 years ago

gurues commented 3 years ago

I'm sending a scrolling message and the first time it works fine but the second time it doesn't scroll the whole message just a few letters. Both times I call update () but the second time it returns true very quickly. It happens to me both with the same message and with a different message. Between both messages I use the clock function to show the time. Is there a special way to use multiple scrolling posts ?. Looking at the documentation I can't find anything.

Greetings

Hi. Please post or link to the actual code that does not work for you. I'm sure that it'll be easier for others to understand what the actual problem is. I just tried two of the demos and they worked fine for me.

Versions <1.7.0 do not support displaying clock and scrolling text at the same time. Since version 1.7.0 you can do it (on different displays). See the TextClock example on how to do it.
