Scrollbar Component w/text

[EccFiveSeven]

If I want to use a scrollbar component to control some text, what steps should I go through? Strangely enough, I haven't found a tutorial on this.

I know it's simple...I just need to know the basics of it. I think it involves a .txt file, but where should that file be saved? Stuff like that, I just need a kind of overview.

Thanks, this will help me a lot if I can get it done.

The external file only exists if you want to.
It's not a rule. You can set a variable in Flash with the text. And this text will be scrolled.

1 - Create a dynamic text and set a instance name, something like 'txt'.

2 - Drag one scrollComponent to the scene [CTRL + F7].

3 - Select the component and set Target TextField parameter in the PROPERTIES window.

4 - Put this line in your frame:
for(i = 0; i<50; i++)
txt.text += "line" + i + "\n";


Hope is useful.
