I have a deadline of about an hour from now, and I cannot scroll text in MX 2004… I have done everything it says to do in help, yet nothing works.
PLEASE HELP!
Guide me step by step through, only assuming i know how to access menus, use panels, input AS and use any components needed…
…and use any components needed…
then use a textarea component, it will add a scrollbar as needed…
if that’s not what you want, add more details
Drag the TextArea component to the stage
give it an instance name like 'mytextfield’
put it’s propertie ‘editable’ to false
be sure you don’t have anything selected
in actionscript:
mytextfield.text = “blablablalba etc”;
when your text is longer than the component,
a scrollbar will automatically show up.
good luck
