Hi,

I am new here and new to flash, and have a question/problem:

I have a dynamic text box with a scrollbar attached. I have plenty of content in the .txt file so that I WILL need the scrollbar. The problem is, when I test the movie and go to the scene where I have the scrolling dynamic text, the scrollbar is inactive. I navigate to another scene and when I come back, the scroll bar is active.

It never works the first time, I have to go to the scene (doesn’t work) go to another, and then come back to get it to work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!
