Improve the readability of dynamic labels which scroll. If the text of a dynamic label to be displayed is wider than the given length, it will be scrolled. Currently such a label starts scrolling immediately after it is placed and - even more unpleasant - the start of the text is randomly somewhere within the specified space of the label. Both makes it hard to track and to read. Now such a dynamic label starts left-aligned and begins scrolling through the specified space only after a short delay (2.5 seconds). Every time the start of the text nears the left margin again during the scrolling process it will stop and everything starts all over again, i.e. scrolling after a short delay.
