    Why not just set the element on the HSTouch screen to "marquee?" The text will automatically scroll but only IF it's bigger than the width of the element. Give it a try...

      The alarm text can go up to half page text if he can make simple text as dense fog like this morning. I believe you see that since you are at Tampa, FL.

        But how can the author's code determine how much and what it needs to delete from the alarm message? Isn't the text of the alarm provided by the openweather data provide and could vary? I'm asking because I'm currently in the process of designing my first weather screen for HSTouch. Thanks!

          I understand that but if he can let the user define it. I think it will work out well.
