hi,
may i know the difference between static n dynamic texts… hmm…i would like to add it to a scrollbar menu…so which one?
I realised when i use dynamic text in a default scrollbar…the text fonts or color can’t be edited…

you go to the hit state of the button (double click, goto the fourth frame)
scrollbar menu, doesnt matter, it has nothing to do with the text unless you want it loaded from an external file
