How to create multiple tickers

Ticker projects work by reading the information from .txt or .rtf files ( including Unicode encoding ) and displaying the contents by crawling across the screen.This allows interoperability with other programs that may generate dynamic content.   The files are processed following the named order. To create a Ticker start by creating a new Ticker project.   From Projects Window select New -> Ticker project and choose a name for the project.   Then select a folder that contains the text files that with the information to be displayed by that Ticker.

In the Item's window there is a "Ticker" item , basically a 2D Text item that has the property "Crawl" enabled and set to a default speed. By assigning a negative value, the Ticker will change the direction.

The Ticker shows text from the .txt files by displaying only the first row.

However, it is also possible to have some extra information on the next rows. In order to display the data on row 2 of the .txt file with a 2DText item, it is necessary to edit the text item by adding : {LINE2}.    That 2DText item must have the first keyframe set in infinite loop to stay on the screen indefinitely.
