size: by default the size of the logo is 1 (if it is a rectangle and width and height are not
equal, the bigger dimension will have a size of 1, the smaller is proportionally lower).
'Size' serves to scale these values.
Example: #L01_C,0,0,2.2
Which means in plain English: show logo 1 from the list, justify it to the center of the
ticker window (C), x,y coordinates need not be modified (0,0) , but the size of the
rectangle - which by default takes its aspect ratio from the dimensions of the bitmap file
- should be multiplied by 2.2.
Separators:
You can define an element of the ticker to be the starting or ending element or also the
automatic line separator that separates all lines. Separators can be set using the same
tags as you can include in the text of the ticker (see the picture above). Each separator
is optional.
● ClipBox: for its use see the description under Text object.
● Clone: Tickers cannot be cloned. There is no point.
● Inherit from Parent: For its use see the description under Text object.
6. Clock Objects
Like the Ticker object, in the hierarchy Clock is always a parent, because when it is created it
automatically gets a Text object as its child. This text object defines the parameters of the font
used to show the clock.
Common properties of a clock object: they are the same as those of Text object.
Special properties:
● type: possible settings
System time shows the built-in clock of the computer, which is a conventional but fairly
precise clock.
Internal Timer: practically it works like a stop-watch and is based on the built-in clock of
the computer.
External Timer: a stop-watch but based on data information coming from an outside
source.
● offset time: this should be used in conjunction to the System Time type. The value of
offset time is always deducted from the current system time and the result gets displayed.
● format: possible settings
hh.mm hour, minute
hh:mm:ss hour, minute, second
