I've got a small issue where a news ticker is truncating text from a text file being read in.
Is there a character limit on the text tool, if so, is there a way to mitigate?
You can see here, this is supposed to say "AMBASSADOR GOLF" etc, but it's cut off... the full text of the file is:

Code:

Hi, I know this isn't the answer you're looking for but I want I'm a few steps behind you. Do you have the text file automatically updated pulling from the internet or is the text file manually updated by you? I'm looking on making a channel which pulls in text from various webpages but I don't know how. You might be able to help me, and, once I spend the next few days focussed on my creation, I'll more than likely come up against a similar problem to you, then we have 2 heads instead of 1!?
