I just wanted to know if there is anyway to make the text for an mxm skin scroll horizontally like it does in xbmc?

You can, but you'll have to wait till the next release. That supports text (or images) in any rotation, skew, etc

Will you be able to add a condition that the text will only scroll if the text line is to long, and will it work in the menu as well?

Genuisalz, do you know the code on how to do this? It would be much appreciated so I can apply to it newsfeed. TY

Well, it's more of a manual scroll. i.e. it will behave the same regardless of how wide the text is.

Try setting up a tween between these two points. Not sure if this will work exactly right...
