HI everyone! Here is my question, I put in a scroll pane with my graphic for content. The scroll pane was a simple one from the components menu in flash. But my information inside of my scroll pane has piled to the left so there is no margin from my text and the edge. I want at lest 2 space margin from the edge. I need to keep in in static text so how should I aproach it? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Ainriail,

I usually use the following INSIDE the mc for the scrollpane,

```php

this._x = 2;
this._y = 2;

```

Change margin amount around until you have what you’re looking for.
