Scrolling
![]() In computer graphics and television, scrolling or text crawling is the act of sliding a horizontal or vertical presentation of content, such as text, drawings, or images, across a screen or display window. Scrolling is often used to show reams of data longer than the viewport. The word scroll is derived from the way in which people read scrolls of paper, by rolling up the top of the page and allowing objects lower on the page to move up. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
