Scrolling-Masking Problem!

Hi

I’ve downloaded Claudio’s Scroll AS and his works fine. I modified it a bit. As long as I don’t change the text box size it works OK but the moment I enlarge it , ie, make my own text box the masking doesn’t work.

Here are two .fla’s :

scroll 2.fla - My attempt at enlarging the text box. For some reason the masking doesn’t work.

scroll 3.fla - in this file, I haven’t changed the size of the textbox, only the content of it. The masking somehow works here.

I need someone’s assistance in making scroll 2.fla work.

Please help !!

Unexpected file format here.
Are you sure you are using flash mx?

flash mx 2004 professional

Then why did you post the thread in the flash mx forum? :huh:

my mistake.

Anyway, Do you have an idea of what could be the problem. Like I said before, except the masking issue, your scrolling AS works fine.

Save the file in mx format and attach it here.

Here are the attachments in MX format. Hope it helps.

By the way , how do I make the scroll script stop the scroll exactly on the final line of my text and not leave space after the last line ?

Again, thanks for your help

On the scroller2.fla you had a lot of white space in the end of the textfield and you forgot to embed the fonts, thats why the text wont show up.

It sure works now , Thank U very much !

You have to play with the space parameter. Decrease the value to decrease the extra spacing.

Once again, Thank you for all your help and time :slight_smile:
