hi.
i have a huge amount of text in an edit box. i currently have it set with a keyboard function to scroll with arrow keys.
(it works ok but its not as much fun.)
what i really want to do is make it a dragable scroll like a pdf file.
you know- with a grab hand to push it up and down.
i can do it with an image but can i do it with text in an edit box?
anyone have a solution?
thanx.
Hi there,
this could be an easy solution for your problem. I think it could look better but unfortunately 3DFA's Edit Box element does only use integers to set the scroll position.
It works in Flash 8 only.
Cheers,

wow leifi thank you.
thats awesome.
exactly what i was after and ive got the graphic for the custom cursor to use with it.
beautiful.
thanx again.
i couldnt use my text in the opening script as you did, it said the string was too long. but i used in the edit box with no problem. havent been able to get my custom cursor to work tho.
Yes I've only set it up in the opening script because I get some strange errors when putting it right in the edit box without scripting.
If you need any further help, feel free to ask :-)
