Scrolling text or document display in Keynote '09

I would like to build an animation that would scroll through a list of about 100 names, one name per line (or two) from top to bottom, at a readable but not slow cadence, somewhat like movie credits. The list could be in a Pages document, a PDF or directly in Keynote. Probably just plain black text on a white background or the slide background. The list would take up about half the screen.
Any ideas how to do this?
Thanks

Another option would be to use iMovie and the Scrolling Credits Title to make a movie of it and then import the movie onto a Keynote slide.

Possible to show bottom of scrolling text first when icon is displayed?

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to show the bottom of
scrolling text when the display comes up? For instance, let's say
you have 20 lines of text in a scrolling display, but it only has
room for 10. By default, Authorware shows the top 10 lines in the
scrolled display, not the bottom 10. I want to show the bottom
10--is this possible?
Thanks,
Edwin

Hi,
Well, I decided to have the most current information at the
top of the display. For instance, if it were a chat, the most
current chat info would be on top instead of on bottom. That fixed
the problem adequately.

Display a warning message (text) for document up/download in cFolders

Hello,
We are working in the development system of cProjects Suite 3.1 on the cFolders application. Lets say there is a collaboration which contains a folder which in turn contains a document. On clicking the document name the document details are displayed. Under the window "Current
Version" the following text message is displayed:
"To display the file of the current version, click the hyperlink. To edit the file of the current version, choose "Checkout" if you want to change it online, or download if you want to change it locally"
We want to change the message text as follows:
"To display the file of the current version, click the hyperlink. To edit the file of the current version, choose Checkout. Using the "Upload" button will result in overwriting the latest version"
Kindly suggest the means to achieve this.

App Wanted to Display Large Scrolling Text

At a very crowded & noisy gig a while ago I saw someone use their iPhone to display a message to someone about 10 yards away (who he couldn't get to easily). He did it by typing the message into his iPhone and then holding the iPhone up & it displayed the message as large scrolling text (IIRC it was something like "2 pints bitter, glass wine & some nuts"). I haven't been able to find something (pref free) that can do that - any ideas?

Maybe this... http://appshopper.com/utilities/shout-it

Creating scrolling text on an iWeb page

I came across Old Toad's Test site and was suitably impressed by the enhancements detailed on his home page. (I did not post the link as I did not want to breach any confidentiality).
Q) How do I get scrolling text on an iweb page? By way of an experiment, I have copied the html code from old toads site into a html widget and then selected apply however the text simply displays, it does not scroll.
I have no html experience apart from cutting and pasting code into the widget box and then selecting apply. What am I doing wrong, please can anyone help? Thanks

The scrolling box is on this demo page. As I mentioned it will work with a text, pdf and Word document. I've not been able to get an rtf document to display nor a Pages document. But you can create pdf files from each of those applications and use the pdf version.
If you can live with the default text that comes with using a .txt file it will not have toolbar at the top that a Word or PDF document will and be a lot cleaner. There may be a way to set the font to be displayed in the page but it can't be done in the text document itself. I've not figured out how do to that as yet.

Arrow key and space bar do not work scrolling in PDF document with film file?

I have made a single PDF file from 26 different InDesign files, first exported to PDF:s. Text and photos. One of the documents contain a film file (.mov).

Scrolling text is jumpy/pulsing when compressed

I'm making end credits using the scroll up text animation behavior in Motion 2.1.2. Whenever I compress it for DVD Studio Pro and insert it the text looks terrible. It is pulsing in and out and is hardly readable. I found a few other people who have had this problem, but no solutions that have helped.
I have done credits using the scrolling text in Final Cut without much problem, but for this project I need motion in order to use text of different sizes.
Here are my specs:
Project Properties - NTSC DV; 720x480; Pixel Aspect Ratio: NTSC D1/DV - 0.90; Field Order: Lower First (Even); Frame Rate: 29.97; Background color is black (0%)
Render Settings - Motion Blur Samples: 8; Shutter Angle: 360; Output Antialiasing Method: Best
I used Export using Compressor: DVD Best Quality 90 minutes 4:3; I tried using the Color+Alpha and just Color in the Output options. Premultiply alpha and Use field render are both checked. Use motion blur is not checked.
Most of the text is Geneva Regular 14 pt font. I have tried completely white as well as setting the RGB sliders all at 235 with no difference. I also tried using a black outline with no difference. The scroll up behavior has a rate of 52.
Please help! It took me forever to put these credits together and I don't want to start from scratch with another program. Making the text bigger helps a little bit but I would really like to keep it the same size for timing and format sake. However, I can't keep it like this because it looks terrible both on an Apple Cinema display and on a tv after burned to DVD.
Thanks!

My first guess would be the font itself. Geneva is a pretty thin font and it's not likely to look good interlaced and on a TV. Can you try a thicker font?
I'd also turn off Field Rendering. It looked much worse with it on than off. Keep Frame Blending though.

How can I use a table as source for scrolling text

Hi,
I have a javascript scolling news on our portal page and anytime I need to update the news I have to update the portlet. Is there a way to use a database table to store the news and get it displayed automatically (as a scrolling text) after committing the transaction.
Thanks,
Leonard

What do you mean by updating the portlet - page refresh?
The nature of HTTP is that the client has to initiate the communication. As long as the browser doesn't submit a new request for the page, the content won't refresh.
There are tricks, though that you may consider... such as placing an iframe on your portal page that "pings" the server and checks whether there's any change on the server side. Another option could be using an applet.

Cant get automatic scrolling text pane to work from other classes

Hi guys, I've been creating a program that utilises JInternalFrames, one of which frames is an "event log" which is simply a Document I append text to, problem is I'm getting some strange logic errors. It works fine if it's just left alone and adds text from its internal timer method, but as soon (sometimes on 3rd or 4th call) of it's static method called 'append' it starts spewing out error message - mainly ""AWT-EventQueue-0" java.lang.NullPointerException", and stops working.
Here is my internal frame (a MyJDesktopPane component), with its internal appendText that works fine.
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Date;
import javax.swing.*;
public class EventLog extends JInternalFrame {
    public EventLog() {
        super("",
                  false,      //resizable
                  false,      //closable
                  false,      //maximizable
                  true);     //iconifiable
        atp = new ELInternal();
        this.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(atp));
        this.setSize(200, 200);
        this.setVisible(true);
        // Add some text every second
        Timer t = new Timer(1000, new ActionListener() {
          public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            String timeString = fmt.format(new Date());
            atp.appendText(timeString + "\n");
          SimpleDateFormat fmt = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
        t.start();
    public static void append(String in)
         try {
                   atp.appendText(in + "\n");
         } catch ( Exception e ){}
    static ELInternal atp;
}Here is the internal panes content:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.text.*;
public class ELInternal extends JTextPane {
public ELInternal() {
    super();
public ELInternal(StyledDocument doc) {
    super(doc);
// Appends text to the document and ensure that it is visible
public void appendText(String text) {
    try {
      Document doc = getDocument();
      // Move the insertion point to the end
      setCaretPosition(doc.getLength());
      // Insert the text
      replaceSelection(text);
      // Convert the new end location
      // to view co-ordinates
      Rectangle r = modelToView(doc.getLength());
      // Finally, scroll so that the new text is visible
      if (r != null) {
        scrollRectToVisible(r);
    } catch (BadLocationException e) {
      System.out.println("Failed to append text: " + e);
}So every time I call "append" which another classes need to be able to call to update it's current event, It just doesn't work... ? I've been staring at this code for hours, think it's going all matrix on me.

Isn't this the "*new* to java" forum? I know what error messages are for, if I understood it I wouldn't be here asking the question!!!!

Creating Scrolling text panels in Indesign CS5 for Interactive SWF's

Hi,
Is it possible to do as it says in the title?
I want to add some text panels and provide the ability to scroll through the text.
It will be output to an Interactive SWF file online.
Can this be done in Indesign CS5?

Hi,
Thanks for the updated information.
I created a scrooling text box in Flash CS5 and created the swf, that works fine.
Importing into Indesign CS5 isnt as straight forward as I expected?
I get the SWF icon on the Indesign Page, but previewing or publishing only shows the SWF icon, no Scrolling Text box displays.
Im ust add that if I click on the SWF icon the Text box displays, but I want it to display by default?
Are there more steps I need to take?

How to solve the flash Builder 4.6 scroll view and textinput display problem?

I have a dynamic form application which worked well on flash builder 4.5, having display problems in flash builder 4.6 now. What I did is adding
TextInput objects to a scroll view and set the texts for them dynamically. Everything is fine after the screen loaded. But if I scroll down, sometimes the texts will be placed in wrong positions. I attached the screen copy of the wrong display. Does anybody know how to solve this problem? Thanks.

Check out the two threads below (if you have not already). I have not tried it but aeonus describes an approach that made me think of something that might work ... It is a workaround but, what if you have a text field (txtA) with the skin that does not allow soft keyboard selection, but does scroll correctly, and on the onClick event of that text field, you dynamically cover it with another text field (txtB) that does allow soft keyboard selection, (but does not scroll properly) and trigger the keyboard. After you get the entry from the user, set the value of txtA and destroy txtB ... leaving you (theoretically) with properly scrolling text fields. If you have a lot of those in your app, you might want to write a component that implements that behavior.
"Create a dynamic textfield, and on click, invoke create a StageText instance at the same location as the textfield (by setting the StageText.viewPort property)
Finally, set StageText.softKeyboardType to "numeric" and call StageText.assignFocus();"
