The VCL (Visual Component Library) Newsticker Component TTicker is an easy to use ticker bar that offers a professional look and feel as well as maximum flexibility for seamless integration into your applications.
TTicker runs with Borland Delphi (Version 7 or higher), CPP-Builder and as well with all VCL.NET IDE's (Delphi for .NET, C#-Builder).
TTicker is perfect for any application that needs to display news streams or alerts to the user. Applications such as stock management software or helpdesk information systems derive great value from the use of the TTicker newsticker component. You can fully customize the ticker component to your needs and have full control over the text displayed and the visual style.
New feature in version 1.1.0: Apart from scrolling text in the ticker bar, a new visual effect has been implemented which renders each text line separately with a smooth blending/fading effect. This is especially useful when you fear that a permanently scrolling bar might create too much turbulence on the screen for the user of your application.
Main Features:
- easy "plug and play" use (pure VCL component)
up to two ticker bands with different scrolling speed
- alternative blending/fading effect for displaying text on the bars
- text highlighting for very important messages or notifications
- flicker-free scrolling (also on TFT screens)
colors, styles and fonts completely customizable
- displayed text is fully customizable and can even be changed while the newsticker is runnning
- click-handler for further processing of clicks on message items (text)
- excellent performance: flicker-free scrolling with nearly no CPU usage |
