Scrollable text 1

[MichelleButler]

I know in Director you can change the text to make it scrollable. Is it possible to use graphics (such as arrows ) that will allow you to scroll through the text rather than use the director scroll bar.

Many thanks

On your scroll down arrow write this in your behavoir:

on scd
member("a&quot.scrollbyline(1)
end

on mouseWithin
mdt
end

on mdt
if the mouseDown=TRUE then scd
end

And on your up arrow write this in the behavoir:

on mouseWithin
mdt
end

on scu
member("a&quot.scrollbyline(-1)
end

on mdt
if the mouseDown=TRUE then scu
end

a is your text member name

The end-user presses mouseDown and it continues to scroll 1 (up or down) line so long as the mouse button is kept down.
