scrollCustomConsoleComponentButtonText()

Scrolls a button’s text on an application-level custom console component that’s on a page. This method is only available in API version 25.0 or later.

Syntax

1sforce.console.scrollCustomConsoleComponentButtonText(interval:number, pixelsToScroll:number, isLeftScrolling:boolean, (optional)callback:Function)

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
interval	number	Controls how often the button text is scrolled in milliseconds.
pixelsToScroll	number	Controls how many pixels the button text scrolls.
isLeftScrolling	boolean	If `true`, the text scrolls left. If `false`, the text scrolls right.
callback	function	JavaScript method that’s called upon completion of the method.

Try to give buttons short names. Scrolling is limited to the width of the button. If a button name is too long, scrolling can restart before the name finishes displaying.
