Briqlab Scroller -pbiviz

The Briqlab Scroller is a free Power BI custom visual for dashboard designers who need to surface dynamic text content — live KPI highlights, status announcements, metric thresholds crossed, or contextual commentary — without consuming canvas space that a chart or table would require. A single narrow tile running along the top or bottom of a dashboard can cycle through dozens of data-driven messages continuously. It is the ticker tape of the Power BI visual library.

Key Features

• Horizontal and vertical scrolling modes — ticker-style or vertical feed per layout requirement

• Data-driven content — messages pulled from your Power BI data model and updated on refresh

• Configurable scroll speed — subtle background motion to prominent live-feed pace

• Colour-coded message segments — highlight critical updates, warnings, or categories in distinct colours

• Custom text size and font weight per message type for visual hierarchy

• Pause-on-hover for readers who need to read a full message before it scrolls away

• Separator configuration — custom delimiters between messages for clean readability

• Dark and light theme compatible with no extra setup

Use Cases

• Operations centre wall displays — live system status, threshold alerts, and shift announcements in a continuous ticker

• Retail trading dashboards — real-time sales milestones and regional performance highlights to motivate teams

• Executive dashboards — narrative commentary and metric context delivered without consuming chart space

• Event leaderboards — live ranking updates and score announcements in a broadcast-style scrolling format

• HR and internal comms — company announcements, recognition messages, and policy updates embedded in existing dashboards
