    code is in this link http://www.qtforum.org/article/26964/how-to-comprehend-this-example.html
    i don't understand why width is tested here, why not use a timer?

    @
    void Ticker::paintEvent(QPaintEvent * /* event */)
    {
    QPainter painter(this);

    int textWidth = fontMetrics().width(text());
    if (textWidth < 1)
        return;
    int x = -offset;
    while (x < width()) {
        painter.drawText(x, 0, textWidth, height(),
                         Qt::AlignLeft | Qt::AlignVCenter, text());
        x += textWidth;
    }
