Step 1: Build Your Foundation


Before we start crafting the infinite scrolling effect, let's set up our canvas. You need a Hero section where you can add your texts and a blank section below that to work on. Are you ready? On your marks, get set, go!


Step 2: Add a Container and Customize It


Now that we have our canvas ready, it's time to add a container that'll hold all our text elements together. Here's what you do:


1. Add a container and 'dock' it to the left side without any margins. Trust us, it's easier this way!


2. Set the container width to 100% and height to 100 pixels.


3. On the blank section, remove the minimum height and let the container determine the section's height. Just like magic!


Step 3: Time for Some Text


With our container now set up, let's add in the text we want to auto-scroll. Simply insert a text element into your container and type or paste your desired text. For this example, we'll use the following text:


```


Hey everyone, I'm Jonathan, a Product Manager from Editor X, and in this video, I'm going to show you how to build this running text effect, which is also responsive and works well on all screen sizes!


```


Step 4: Duplicate the Text


To make sure our scrolling text animation covers all screen sizes, we'll need to duplicate our text three times. But before we do that, let's get our container ready.


1. Select the container and apply a grid with three columns and one row. This will ensure we have enough space for our text elements.


2. Set the first text element to take up only the first column by selecting it and adjusting the settings in the Inspector panel. Assign the setting to 1-2 so it doesn't look squished.


Step 5: Extend the Container


Our container seems a bit cramped, so let's give the text some room to breathe by extending it slightly:


1. Change the container width from 100% to 5000 pixels.


2. Ensure it's still docked to the left with no margins.


Step 6: Add the Moving Effect


Now, it's time for the magic! Let's implement the moving effect on our text so they automatically scroll across the screen. By following the tips we discussed above, you have now set up your text canvases properly, ensuring that your infinite auto-scroll animation is responsive, looks fantastic, and captivates your website visitors.


And there you have it! Your very own infinite auto-scrolling text animation created with Editor X—perfect for adding some visual flair to your website without complications!
