Is there a way to keep the text scroller bar of the scroll component included in Flash MX from resizing when adding text? I want the bar to be a bitmap so when you press it it’ll scroll up or down. I know how to edit the component but the bar resizes and distorts the bitmap. Also, is anywhere in here a tutorial about that or on how to create a scroll bar?

Thanks in advance for your help.
