**Scroll Texture** is one of the generative layer templates that scrolls a texture arriving from Layer Connections.

## Variables

### **Render**

Explained in [Stock Layer Templates](/layers-and-layouts/stock-layer-templates.md).

### **Scroll**

<div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/t6vKOuVX17QPmxnwE4Mv" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

* **Texture**: reference to the texture that's going to be scrolled. Connect it with the source layer through Layer Connections.
* **Speed**: the speed with which the texture is going to scroll
* **Vertical**: if checked the texture is going to scroll vertically, otherwise horizontally.
* **Auto rename:** select if you want the layer's name to display the state of the variables.

## Setting up

This layer template relies on [Layer Connections](/layers-and-layouts/layer-connections.md). This means that the Texture variable needs to be the destination of another Source layer.
