Hi Andrew, It turns out to be surprisingly simple. Place a text member on the stage, select the sprite and then toggle the editable and flipH buttons in the Property Inspector, standard view. Now run your movie, click on the text sprite and start typing. You'll need to use a custom scroll bar, if you want to be able to scroll the text. If you use the native scrollbar, it will hide the right edge of the text. You'll also need a special font with the characters reversed so that they appear the right way round. Apart from that, Director does all the work for you.
