[FONT=‘Trebuchet MS’]Hi,[/FONT]  
[FONT=‘Trebuchet MS’]anybody know how to make a scrolling text box that’s slightly tilted? After I made all the parts, I ‘free-transformed’ everything about 30 degrees. But when I click/drag the scroll bar, it still moves in a vertical straight line. Same thing for the text. So how do I get everything to move in a straight line relative to the direction that’s it’s pointing? …motion guide…does this have to do with the ‘z-index’?[/FONT]
