Ticker Control

I would like to see a Ticker control that would allow you to scroll the contents of a device property across the screen. Maybe an AlphaList could be the source property and the control could scroll multiple messages with pause in between. This would be really nice to allow scrolling news headlines across the bottom of a screen.

I think this could be done using a script really easily. Use two properties. One for the entire message and one for the text shown in the siding window that changes it's position every X milliseconds . This is pretty easy to do using a circular queue. I might try and write one for you. I was looking for this myself.
