The Briqlab Power BI text scroller is an animated custom visual that turns any text or numeric column into a smooth, horizontally-scrolling ticker tape. Built natively for Power BI, it is ideal for live metric feeds, announcements, and digital signage on large screens. Connect a text or numeric measure and the values scroll continuously across the visual at your configured speed, looping seamlessly with no jumps. With automatic up/down colouring and full styling control, the text scroller brings a broadcast-quality news ticker to any dashboard.

Top Use Cases
The Briqlab text scroller is built for screens people watch rather than click. Retail floors run live sales totals and promotions; operations centres scroll throughput, uptime, and SLA status; trading desks push live price and movement feeds with automatic green/red colouring on rising and falling values. Event venues and reception areas display rolling announcements and welcome messages, while sales teams keep a motivating ticker of deals closed in view of the whole floor. Anywhere a dashboard is shown on a large screen and needs to communicate frequent updates at a glance, the scrolling ticker keeps key metrics and messages moving, readable, and impossible to miss.
