Title: Nutcracker: bug fix, scrolling text
Post by: smeighan on June 01, 2012,
Can someone try scrolling text on Vixen? I rewrote the module that outputs the code, make_vixen.php
I next need to fix the make_lor.php to have the same fix,

thanks

Sean -  It is working on my tree.  (1/2 tree of 16 strands x 16 pixels each)

In my case, I have to start at the top of the tree for the text to be correct.  If I select the 2nd row, it is not correct.

There seems to be a minor bug with the outputting.  If I go back and make a change to the effect and re-create the Vixen files, there are remnants of the previous version of the effect.

Nutcracker rocks!!

I will be at home if you need to call me.

UPDATE:
Sean - I was able to spend some more time with the scrolling text effect.  I created 2 lines of text.  The first line is OK.  The second line has some pixels that are out of place by 1 pixel.

I tried just 1 line of text starting on the 4th row and it also had a problem with a few pixels being off by 1.

Is there anything you need from me to help you debug this?

no, i know about the one pixel off. i can see that on the nutcracker channel preview. i want the actual display to look like the channel preview. the being off by one pixel is on my to do list.

Ok, scrolling text, part 2.

I rewrote a big chunk of the code for making Vixen vir and vix files. Someone please give it a try

thanks
