Ticker Plug-ins

In order for a ticker carousel to work properly, the Viz Artist scene that the carousel is based upon must be created according to specific Design Conventions. There are also various Viz Artist plug-ins that must be available in order for a ticker carousel to work properly:

  • Scroller: The Scroller plug-in is a geometry plug-in, mostly used for creating scrolling tickers, which generates a dynamic line of scrolling elements. Information about the Scroller plug-in can be found in the Viz Artist User Guide’s Geometry Plugins/Ticker section.

  • Scroller Action: The Scroller Action plug-in makes it possible to design scrolling tickers that trigger actions when scroller elements are played out. Information about the Scroller Action plug-in can be found in the Viz Artist User Guide’s Container Plugins/Ticker section.

  • Toggle: The Toggle plug-in is used to toggle between objects in flipping carousel scenes. Information about the Toggle plug-in can be found in the Viz Artist User Guide’s Container Plugins/Container section.

There are also numerous Control plug-ins that must be available in order to modify the ticker elements.

Note: The plug-ins mentioned in this section are required for Viz Ticker to operate correctly. These plug-ins are shipped with the Viz Artist installer/distribution, not with Viz Ticker.
