dexxa Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 this creates a gui that looks like a led banner. it displays some text and loops it. it reads from a file called banner.txt in my documents. you can change the size of it. make sure u change both $Pixel_Size, $Spacing and make $Spacing bigger than $Pixel_Size. it's kinda slow. needs more optimizations. you need char_def.au3.banner.au3Char_Def.au3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedna Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I like this idea - nice. But without optimization it's VERY SLOW - unusable. It could be optimized the way using SetPixel instead of labels and using hidden memory bitmap & BitBlt from memory DC to window DC. See BlackJack in examples where I did such optimizations.

BrettF Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Good idea, but it seems to have some inconsistency in speed- i.e. stats fast, then slows down.

GaryFrost Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Sounds a bit like text effects that was done a long time ago by peethebee SciTE for AutoItDirections for Submitting Standard UDFs Don't argue with an idiot; people watching may not be able to tell the difference.

Toady Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Hey I think this is cool. I made an LED sign in my microcomputer design course in college. This script follows the same technique, good job! www.itoady.com A* (A-star) Searching Algorithm - A.I.

dexxa Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 I dont look at the source at all..But with guictrlcreategrapic?simpler, labels, lots of them.it starts out fast because initially there are less labels to manipulate. and as it scrolls, it has to change more labels.my code only changes the labels that have to be change and nothing more. i am not sure how to further optimize it.....

James Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 Haha cool! At first I thought it would require an actual LED banner. Shame its slow though, solve this look at Zednas post!
