Is it possible to tween a dynamic text field(content being read from external txt file). I cant seem to find any sites that really say yes/no.

My objective is to have a customized scroller (yes I know MX comes with a scroller component, but I dont like how it looks). I want the dynamic text field to scroll up/down with an onmouseover on my up/down arrows.

Is it possible to change the looks of the scroller component?

I tried to add a new key frame in each field (duplicating each field, just moving the text box up/down a bit), but it didnt seem to like that and it would display the text anymore, although the box would move, but again, no text.

Any suggestions would be great 🙂

Thanks.
