Synopsis

require_once 'Gtk/ScrollingLabel.php';

Description

startScroll() will make the text begin scrolling in the direction given by calling setDirection().

This means that the last character of the label will be the first character shown. If the text is scrolling right to left (GTK_SCROLLINGLABEL_LEFT), the current character position is set to zero. This means that first character shown will be a blank space.

This method is best used when connected to an event.

Return value
