Is there a code or setting where I can wrap the text so it can fit in a box without scrolling?

All you need is Tellyvisual ;-)

Well, tell us exactly what you are trying to do.

It was to wrap code around the text like in any word document when it gets to the end of a line. But someone told me that it can't be done.

If you are talking about the video screen (thing the guest see), you can use a text panel in TellyVisuals. It has alignment and wrapping options plus a number of other things. The text is guaranteed not to go outside of the box you have sized it to.

Thanks for all the ideas, but it wasn't really for video purposes. Maybe useful down the road though.

Also, does anyone know how to display the volume level/percentage of a deck via text?
Or sample code to display the volume level?

Off topic but here is the code u can use...

<textzone>
...
<text ..... action="get_volume & param_cast 'percentage'/>
</textzone>
should display the Volume %

<textzone>
...
<text ..... action="get_level & param_cast 'percentage'"/>
</textzone>
should display the pre-fader Output level

<textzone>
...
<text ..... action="get_vu_meter & param_cast 'percentage'"/>
</textzone>
should display the post-fader Output level

For graphics, you can use
<visual source="">
...
</visual>
and the actions above as source="" without the param_cast conversion.

For detailed syntax, you can study the default skins or Wiki http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/SkinSDK8.html
For further questions regarding your skin requests/issues, please post in the Skins forum .. http://www.virtualdj.com/forums/13/VirtualDJ_Skins.html and avoid asking different un-related questions in the same topic.

BTW, if the original question was about scrolling text on a skin, simply have scroll="yes|no" in the <text ... /> line of a <textzone>
