What is a Ticker

A Ticker contains its own items. These items are essentially the same as Layout’s segments. Ticker displays its items gradually in a scrolling fashion. The scrolling speed and direction can be configured.

Ticker is used to display segments, that don’t need to be visible all the time thus saving space on the Layout for other, more important segments.

A Ticker is especially useful, when containing a Banner. Sometimes Banner’s content is too long to be comfortably displayed. Putting such Banner into a Ticker enables the full display of longer texts without taking up unnecessary space in the Layout.
