If that helps simplify your code,then all the better. Sure it will be more complex for some, but I would expect those users to just use one of the predefined examples.

One thing that would be useful is to have an option to show the league name sport or icon while it's showing a particular score type. For example if it's showing MLB scores then have a configurable MLB text box and/or icon. When it switches to NFL, NHL, etc then change accordingly. SDT on non-Jive displays does that now. When showing two lines of text the upper line will show the league and the lower will be the scores. Coding it to work with a ticker display was difficult to get the timing right but well worth the end result. -Greg -- GoCubs ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GoCubs's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=312 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77864 _______________________________________________ jive mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/jive
