Creating a Scrolling Text Effect in Editor X

Alright, let's say you have a website or a section where you want to include a scrolling text effect. To achieve this, follow these steps:

Step 1: Add a container

Go to the section where you want the scrolling text effect and add a container.

Step 2: Adjust container settings

Make your container take up the full width of the section by setting it to 100% width. Also, set the container's alignment to the left and middle. Set the height to 100 pixels and remove the container's background color. Keep the magic happening by removing the section's height.

Step 3: Add your desired text

With your container ready, add the text that you want to scroll. Line up the text to the left and middle of the container. You can play around with the text settings, but for this example, we'll use the Barlow Medium font at 21 pixels. Ensure the text takes up the entire width of the screen.

Step 4: Add the code

As we mentioned earlier, this scrolling text effect requires a bit of code. Don't worry, though – we got you covered! Simply follow the video tutorial by Extreme and copy the code he provides.

With this code, your text will now scroll smoothly in your container, providing an eye-catching interactive element for your website's visitors.

And there you have it! With a bit of coding magic and some Editor X know-how, you've now created a scrolling text effect for your website. So, go ahead, give yourself a pat on the back – you deserve it!
