Howdy

I'm using a 4 x 20 LCD, and scrolling a text message from right to left. That is no problem. The letters "fall off" line one of the display as they reach the end of the first line, and then continue to scroll on line 3. What I want to do is, as the letters reach the end of line one, then restart over on line one, rather than "wrapping" and continuing on line 3. It would be OK if the entire message scrolls off before restarting.

I realize that this "line wrapping" is the way the display normally works., since there are 40 character positions per line, and line one actually continues starting on line 3. Also line 2 continues on line 4.

I thought the sending the command 68 would disable "line wrapping" , but that does not work.

I have searched every related thread I can find, but do not find this discussed. The HD44780 data sheet might explain how to do it, if possible, but I have not found that either.

Is there a way do do this?

Thanks
