Is there a recommended limit as to how many characters are entered/displayed in the marquees? I was just wondering if too much info would affect functionality. I wanted to run the WSOP results from the first 20 events (top 3 places) on my horizontal announcement marquee. I thought I better ask before I copy and paste. Thanks.

That's not a problem. It takes a string and just keeps painting characters until it reaches the edge of the screen. So, for once, length doesn't really matter.

Thanks for the "short" reply. Laughing
