How to make the text scroll

Dear Experts,

Kindly could you help me out to make the text scrolling. May be text have the 20 characters, instead giving so much width to display (since there is a size constraints), I just wanted to give only less width where only can show some 10 characters at a time, but rest of the characters should scroll.

I would really appreciated your help and suggestions on this. Thanks in advance :)

Am using Linux os and 4.7.2 Qt version.

what do you mean by scrolling text /

are you using QTextEdit or QLineEdit or something else ?

If you are using either of the above scrolling is a default behavior.

Thanks.

I Mean -- Imagine a label with a fixed size containing a single-line text string which is too wide to fit inside the label. I need to design a widget which shows the complete text string by scrolling the text string from right to left - similar to a horizontal moving banner.

Will this QLineEdit, and QTextEdit help me to do it?

BTW: think about display short description on QLabel & display complete text as ToolTip.

Thanks this helped me a lot!
