Hello Joshua -
Adjust the Title Height. The Title Height has to be large enough to include the title, the text, and the add-to-cart button if you are using them. If text is being cut off, the most likely culprit is the the title height is not large enough.
In terms of display, if you want the scroller on all pages, then you can set the module to display on all pages using the first option under the module menu management. The 'all pages' button literally puts it on all pages, even the ones without a direct menu link. Otherwise, if you just select pages then it will show up only on those specified.
I think you could embed the { loadposition your_module_position) in the VM template and call it that way. I seem to recall that we have had people do that before, with the option on to execute plugins in the VM config that will probably work. You would have to put it in your Browse page and your flypage templates.
I've never done that personally, as I have always just published it to menu items.
