Hi,  
I’m trying to import some text from a txt file and make it scroll if it needs to. I’ve been able to make text scroll and import text, just never both at the same time 😛

```
  I know this is most likely a trival thing! But could some one point me to a tutorial or post some help? thanks!:smirk:
