Ok, i have a string im printing to the screen with say, co-ordinates of X = 240 Y = 136
I want it so if the text is over say, 29 characters, then scrol it left for every time i enter a character...
I thought, o a simple if statment saying if strlen(string) > 29 { blah blah, but it is in a loop to keep cheking if it truely is over 29... but it then moves the text over 7 pixles to teh left (thats the characters width by the way) and then again, then agin, since its in a loop...
Ive been messing with for loops for such a thing, but i still cant get it...
So could some one help me out towards getting this string to scroll left, 7 pixels left, for each extra character entered past the 29 th char mark?
Im going to continue messing with for loops until I can get an answer...
