7.3 RTic-compatible Tickers
This paragraph explains how to create RTic-compatible Tickers.
Example Templates for RTic-compatible Tickers can be found under File > Example Projects > RTic
Ticker.
To create RTic-compatible Tickers:

Create a Template to place the Ticker on-screen. For an example see the Ticker In Template in the
example Project RTic Ticker. This Template can have any name.
 For each Ticker, create the following Templates:
o set_ticker_story<ticker_number>: set ticker stories for <ticker_number>.
o clear_ticker_stories<ticker_number>: clear ticker stories for <ticker_number>.
Note that Template names for RTic-compatible Tickers must exactly match the syntax
described above.
7.3.1 The set_ticker_story<ticker_number> Template
This Template sets ticker stories for the Ticker with <ticker_number> and contains
the Add Ticker Story Command.
Tickers and ticker stories are numbered starting from 0.
For more information on Commands, see paragraph 6.10.

Add the Add Ticker Story command to the set_ticker-story<ticker_number> Template and edit the
Command (double-click on the Timeline to edit).
