hi everyone –

I have a dynamic text field in my movie that I am attempting to scroll without using components. I’d rather not “see” a scroller per se, but, rather “up” and “down” arrows right next to each other.

This is what I have applied to the down button so far:

```auto
on (press) {
	radiatorText.scroll+=2
	}

```

With this code, the user must click everytime to advance the text two lines, how can I alter or add to the code so that it scrolls when the button is held down???

Can’t seem to find a tutorial on this anywhere.

Thanks :0
