One scrooller for two textfields?

Whats up :beer:

I’ve got a text to scrool. Loading from an external text file, fonts embbeded, characters exported, HTML tags sucessfully used. Using the Flash MX component “scrollbar” I did manage to make it scrool :bounce:

BUT this text of mine is in fact divided in TWO columns, and each of this has a different colour.

It s*cks very much to divide the two columns with a lot of “empty spaces” and the truth is that they never really align very well using this primitive and ridiculous method :ogre:

So, I concluded that in order to make this perfect I need to put my two columns of text into TWO textfields, so they can be properly tidy and aligned.

But the problem is, that as they must always be side to side, I must be able to use just one scroolbar to move them up and down!

In the Scroolbar component I tried out to define the target textfield as “textField1, textField2”, but it didnt work, it obviously is made to be used for one textfield at a time only. Or not???

I attach a file here to make your approach easier :smiley:
