Ticker Animations

Posts: 28
I'm curious why ticker animations aren't supported-

Actually, I've seen a couple of animated tickers. I'm curious how to setup animations for tickers, does anyone have any tips / tricks they can give out? Thanks.

I assume you mean 'swap animations' where the ticker items move to reflect the new positions? Unfortunately these are still not supported due to technical issues with how the tickers are implemented. It is still high on my list but it's a tricky problem to solve in all cases.

Any tickers with swap animations using ATVO are custom-built themes, they do not use the theme editor but were made by us from scratch. It is not comparable to the theme editor.


You can however do some different kind of ticker animations manually. Some examples will be available in the ATVO Theme we will release soon. For example, I use a ticker to show the grid or the list of results. It shows up to 10 results and then scrolls up to show the next 10 results, etc. This is all done with a static ticker (that shows up to 60 drivers), a simple 'TranslateY' animation to move the entire widget, and some scripting to make sure it moves the appropriate amount.

Yeah; I was looking for swap animations on tickers. Hope to see an update in the future to support it though!

Has there been any update for this yet?
Interested in ‘swap’ animations’ if it has been implemented?
Thanks a bunch!

RaceSpot is not using a theme created with the theme editor. What RaceSpot and other customers are using is basically a custom software (we call it “custom theme”) tailored for their needs compatible with ATVO. You can’t compare a “custom theme” with a theme editor theme - its two entirely different pairs of shoes. As Nick mentioned already, it is a tricky problem with the current implementation which means we will also not be able to give any ETA.

ok . Thanks for the information.
I was looking for a way yesterday and found a step in the right direction. so i believe ;)
we must work with the live Gap. When a car Lose the Position the gap goes in a negative. We can create a script that say, when the live gap goes in negative (-) than make the Background color red.
in the Car win a Position is the best way to script the +0.001 to 0.010 than show green background for a view seconds.
I test that with dynamic backgrounds. it works. but the Performance is goe down. Best way i think its a script.
I hope its a way or idea
