Text appearance: Specify how the text will appear on screen:
Animated: Text appears on screen from left to right (similar to a Teletype-style ticker).
Static Text: Lines of text appear without any animation.
Scrolling: Text scrolls across the screen (similar to a news or stock ticker). If this option is selected, the Number of Lines parameter will be limited to 1 and the Time to Display Each Line parameter will have no effect. Note that this option is not available for LSx22, HDx20, or HDx10 models (to enable scrolling with the LS423, BrightAuthor version 4.7.0.8 or later is required). The text can scroll either right-to-left or left-to-right with firmware versions 6.1.37 and later: This scrolling direction is determined by the language of the first text item used in the Ticker zone (e.g. Spanish text will set the ticker to right-to-left, while Arabic text will set the ticker to left-to-right).
Scroll speed:(Scrolling text only) Use the slider to set the scroll speed to 100%, 200%, 300%, or 400% of normal.

To adjust the font size in a Ticker zone, change the number of lines displayed in the zone. To do this:
Select the Ticker zone and click the Zone Properties button.
This will open the Zone Properties window, where you can increase the number of lines in the zone. The font size decreases with more lines and increases with fewer lines. You can also increase or decrease the size of the zone to adjust font sizes.
Scrolling Tickers can only display 8192 pixels per string. Due to this limit, font options can affect the total number of characters that can be displayed within 8192 pixels.
