Marquee Button

I don't know if you guys can do this...but a plugin button for marquee in the reply buttons would be a cool feature.


If someone has already asked for this, I apologize in advance.

Can you be more specific? It would help to know what you expect to see visually (where, appearance) + what you want as a function (what you want to happen when it is used) to determine what the possibility is on making the plugin.

I guess that is fair enough to ask.. since I wasn't thoroughly with my description. lol forgive me...
I would like to see a small button in the post reply box where the functions are ... you know where the font face / font size/ font color and all the buttons are when you make a reply...
I would like to see if they can make a small button to put in with the rest of the buttons for a marquee so you can use it to make your text scroll from right to left and or maybe left to right would be cool, too or both or even bounce a little?
I think it would be a cool feature to have with Proboards functions they already have.
So instead of typing in the word with the brackets, why not a small button and add it to the rest of the functions.

You can create that button in the Quick Reply BBCode Buttons plugin by going to the HIRE tab.

Tag (required): marquee

thank you kindly!


after I save it... the image (required) can I use that or do I need to convert that image to a gif image? if yes, how does one do that?

again thank you.

https://storage.proboards.com/forum/images/bbcode/marquee.png is the image location for the marquee button hosted by Proboards. There is no need to change unless you want to create and use your own custom button image.

No ....no need to change it, its perfect as is.
Only one problem... it will not show up in my quick reply BB code... 
here is what I did... did I do this right?

re-edit: I now see it in my quick reply... however , do not see it in my regular respond format. Does the marquee button only work for the quick reply? if no, how can I add it to the other reply format?!

Thanks in advance

Thank you .... I did see that and I didn't know what to do with it.. My bad. I'm still learning about the plugins.

Thank you again for your help.
