# Scrolling text

Our eyes are attracted to movement, so as users scroll and new content comes into view, it’s more eye catching than static text. The viewer will stay interested longer and want to continue scrolling further down the page.

### Getting Started

* Go to `Online store` → `Theme` → `Customise`
* By default, you will not see this section pre-loaded
* Scroll to the bottom of the panel and `Add section`

#### How do i customise the Scrolling text section settings?

* **Scrolling speed** - control how fast scrolling text animates across the page
* **Top/bottom padding** - this controls the ammount of whitespace above and below this section
* **Color scheme** - pick a theme color profile to change the style of this section

#### How do i customise the Scrolling text block settings?

This section can show up to 6 blocks.

* **Heading** - Add content such as "Free Shipping" multiple times in each block OR add information about your products or services?
