See my previous post today before this one.

I tried to experiment a bit with the visibilitygroup attributes creating
two tracktext items, putting them in the same visibility group and
position and setting visibilityorder to 1 for the first and 2 for the
second and setting animate=true on the first and animate=false on the
second. The idea was that this would make it possible to show the first
item for 10 seconds (with scroling) and show the other item for 60
seconds (without scrolling) and thus make the scrolling happen less
often. Unfortunately I didn't get it to work, so there is probably some
bug either in my code or Logitech's. I'll put this on the todo list
because I think it's a good idea to be able to configure this a bit
better than you can today, but it's probably not going to be fixed in
the near future.

See my previous post from yesterday, in addition to the ones you mention
there is a X_OF_Y keyword.

You want to set align=right and set a value for the "width" parameter.
For example:
align=right
width=50
posx=200

When you set "width" you also need to adjust "posx" accordingly.
The "posx" value will be upper left corner relative to the left side of
the screen but by setting width you can limit the length of the field
and due to this use "align=right" to always move it to the right side of
the field.

Would you like automatic wrapping if the title is too long ?
You can avoid text scrolling by setting animate=false but that will cut
the text on the right side and I suspect this isn't what you want ?

It was some time since I implemented this, so I'm not sure if the line1,
line2, line3 attribute is a bug or if I've forgotten how wrapping was
configured, I suspect it's just a bug in the configuration screen or
something remaining from the initial implementation of tracktext which
didn't have the same configuration possibilities where you could specify
exact formatting keywords.
