Would like to see a prepend and append text fields added to the Text source.
A good reason to use this is in things like a scrolling music text headline.
This lets someone type in the prepend field:
"Now playing ... "
So that when it is prepended to the text file or text, it ends up looking like:
"Now playing ... The name of the song and author"
Sure, one could add another Text field to position before the text but when text scrolling, the "Now playing ..." is in a fixed position and isn't part of the scrolling.
Another feature I would like added is the automatic expansion of the horizontal size of the text field. Again, in terms of a song title and author of a song, the amount of characters varies. The text field should be allowed to expand in either the left or right direction to accomodate the resizing of the text. What I get now is repetitive text in a scroll filter which looks ugly.
