I learned the basics of the scrollbar component and how to use it… but I just have a problem.

Is it possible to change tha background color of a dynamic text box where I attach my scrollbar?

Create a layer behind your textbox and draw a shape with the color you want (for this to show you must disable the border on the text box if you have that enabled, you could always have the border be around the object behind the textbox).

No problem. Maybe they will add another way in the future, but as of now, you just have to rely on the illusion that it is the textbox’s background 🙂
