I am trying to create a dynamic text scroll with inertia. I know to scroll dynamic text conventionally it’s just the mydyntxt.scroll = scroll+1; or similar, but that only works with buttons, etc…the scrollbar component method doesnt allow inertia, and i really would prefer to have that effect. Does anyone know of a way of achieving this effect?
