i have quite a lot of text going into a textbox with a scrollbar, this works, but for some reason half of the text gets cut off?! I’ve tried making the text smaller but its still not working?! would anyone happen to know whats wrong? thx ---

Hey, Have you made your text box DYNAMIC? I’m willing to bet its still on static property. Hight light the box and check the property inspector. Viru. ---

If you got bullets points render the text box as HTML then it should still work. V. ---

No. you use that box by highlighting some text then typing a url into the whitearea, in other words your making a hyperlink. ---
