I just wanted to know how to make content in a dynamic text box scroll continuously, right now you can only click on the up to move it up a bit, and down to move it down a bit etc. I want the user to be able to hold down the button to make the content scroll. Could anyone help me with this please?  
Thanks in advance!

the code on the up button:

```auto
on (release) {
	contentArea.scroll-=1;
}

```

the code on the down button:

```auto
on (release) {
 contentArea.scroll += 1;
}

```

contentArea is the instance name of my dynamic text box. 🙂
