TextField getImageReference issue

OK so I have this textField, loaded with htmlText. Content as images inside it. I successfully pull the images and rearrange them (Scale them, mask them, and align them in a grid) with the getImageReference method. Now when I do this, I modify the x and y properties of the images. They align inside the textField. Now, if I try to scroll the textField it doesn’t work anymore. The images are floating above the text in textField. Is there any way to reintroduce the image inside the field so they respond to the scrolling function?
