How to create the different colors in the text

Post by nghiem.nx »

Hi All.

I have a project to use Madrix Software and LED Philips.

I have a question about to make different colors in text.

Because in Effect Ticker / Scrolling Text is only one color for text.

Hope to receive help early.

Xuan Nghiem.

Thank you.

Hello nghiem.nx.
Welcome to the forum!
.
If you want to create a "SCE Ticker/Scrolling Text" effect with different colors you have to work with layers and mix modes.
.
For instance we want to create a Text which change the color:
At the first layer choose "SCE Ticker/Scrolling Text", write the desired text and let the color white.
Now press the "Layer" button and add a "New" layer. At this layer please choose "SCE Color Change" and change the mix mode to "Mask".

More information about working with layers in MADRIX you can find here:

or have a look at the MADRIX tutorials:

Thank you.

Hi Guertler

Thank you for your support.

Because my project is a continuously running text, it displays the text & number of stock exchanges, usually in blue and red.

You can download this picture from the link to know more :

Hello nghiem.nx,
.
You can try to use the "SCE Counter" effect to get the explained result. This effect is available since MADRIX 3.2.
.
To use the "SCE Counter" like a ticker you have to change some settings:
1.) Change the direction of the effect to a desired direction.
2.) Now change the values for "Interpolation 1" and "Interpolation 2" to 50.
3.) Open the "String" table and add the desired words.
4.) Now you could open the "Color" table and add for every row in the "String" table a color.
5.) With the "BPM" slider you can change the speed and with the "Pitch" slider you can change the distance between the strings.
To learn more about the "SCE Counter" effect please have a look here:

Thank you.
