Can you screenshot what you mean by “marquee”. I’m not familiar with this term in Glide. ---

Not sure if it is the same, but marquee in HTML is used for scrolling text. > **[: The Marquee element - HTML: HyperText Markup Language | MDN](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/marquee)** > > The HTML element is used to insert a scrolling area of text. You can control what happens when the text reaches the edges of its content area using its attributes. Or, he might be referring to the top bar. ---

Please beware of using too much HTML/CSS in your app. They are not officially supported and can break anytime. ---

> [@David\_Gabler](#): > > especially on some devices. Yeah, much as I have tried to put up a CSS library together with @Lucas_Pires , I still have to warn new people about side effects of using that, especially about it not working the same way on multiple devices. If you use them, please test them on as many devices as you can. ---

Complementing what @ThinhDinh said, you can easily do it now with a extention I used many often… ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/e/b/ebe88f8d2558d917d52f05efd4ee0d7c0da780bd.png) Basically you can see the same web page in different divices screen sizes at the same time! ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/3X/8/1/81cb79735a6ecd99e2b226cd5bfcae7fe2700b44.jpeg) ---
