What I'm trying to do is have it so that when someone is typing what they are typing is always displayed, so previously typed letters will move out of view. Would "rendering destination dimensions" cause the image stop at some point or just remove previously typed letters?
I tried using it and it seemed to stop the text half way through the display area but this could just be something that I did wrong.

Maybe you are talking about text wrapping? if your image With String patch don't have setup a pixel dimension in X it don't warp the text. You can use the "Rendering Destination Dimensions" to get the dimensions in "Width" and feed this value into your "Image With String" patch input "Image Width". In your case it is always "2" because you have setup the "Image With String" patch to use QC-units. Is that what you need? best, Achim On 31.05.2012, at 15:20, El Neal wrote: Hi Achim, Sorry about the patch. I'm not quite sure if anchor points would do it - currently what I have is a composition that has a black screen until you start to type and then the text appears in real time. The issue I have is that the type eventually writes off of the page (even though it does bump the other type along a bit). Is there any way to get it to move to the left so many units on a keypress? I hope this makes sense.... Sorry. El Subject: Re: QC X-offset/text scroll?

But from your description I think the "Anchor" patch is what you are looking for. you feed in the image width and hight and the Anchor patch calculates the X/Y position for your image. Select "Center Right" as your "Anchor Point" option. best, Achim BreidenbachBoinx Software On 29.05.2012, at 16:53, El Neal wrote:Hello everyone,I'm pretty new to this whole developer stuff so please bare with me if what I'm asking is blindingly obvious or I don't provide enough information.I've attached the qrtz file that I'm talking about which was created with a lot of help from a friend, I've been trying to get quartz to write live text on input which is working out fine apart from the text eventually ends up writing off of the visual space, is there any way of getting the image to move along the x value? I thought CIsumof8conics may have done it but my quartz doesn't have it. I'm running this on a Lion machine.Any help appreciated, once again apologies for my lack of understanding.Thanks,El<VJText03 ELLE.qtz> _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
