For example, you might have a VDU at an airport showing departure times ... the user doesn't interact with it, so the space is defined. If the OP's dashboard is showing in a situation like that, an answer like "just scroll down" isn't helpful .. I guess I'm just playing devil's advocate in a way, saying there is a space for tickers ... it's just ... defined ;-) | |

| Apr 28, 2015 at 10:13 | comment | added | Algy Taylor | Is it a demo of something that will be shown on a TV screen (ie not interacted with) or on a computer (ie will be interacted with, even if it's just by the person demoing it)? Added a bit to the answer slightly | |
