    Several weeks ago a change was made to the PowerBI software. My scrolling ticker tape stopped working. I contacted the creator and he changed the code to match whatever change was made to PowerBI and re uploaded it to GITHub. I simply had to redownload it from GITHub and re import it into my report. It has been functioning appropriately since then. If you have not redownloaded during the last couple of weeks, this should solve your problem.

    The only reason I knew to contact him (Fredrik Heden) was that another custom visual stopped working at the same time and the 'bug' was posted in another quesiton on this site.

    Unfortunately, there is no mechanism in place to announce updates to the visuals.
