neophtye · July 17, 2002, 7:05pm

I created a text field but the field stop scrolling after a certain amount of lines. How do i get it to scroll through my text field?

here is the code on the up button:

on (press) {
if (mytext.scroll>1) {
mytext.scroll–;
}
}

here is the code on the down button:

on (press) {
if (mytext.scroll<mytext.maxscroll) {
mytext.scroll++;
}
}

any codes or variables I need to have the text scroll to its lenght?

thanks

You might just want to simplify the actionscript, that might works. Here are the two buttons:

on (release) {
myText.scroll = myText.scroll + 1;
}

on (release) {
myText.scroll = myText.scroll - 1;
}

Hope this helps. Good Luck
