lingo-l Text box with scroll.

Hi All, I have a small question regarding text box with scroll in Director. I have a text box [text area] sprite on the stage with scroll box. I am bringing some other flash sprite over the stage at runtime. However the scrollbar seems to persist over the new screen. Why does this happen? any

Re: lingo-l Text box with scroll.

Short of whipping your own graphics and scripts, there's no solution for the scroll bars being persistent. Director draws them direct to stage by default and it cannot be changed. Painful, to say the least. As an aside, there's an xtra called OS Controls (I think) that offers non DTS scrollbars

Re: lingo-l Rounding (unusually)

Hows this? :-) n = 4.1 z = (n - integer(n - 0.5)) put n - (n - integer(n-.5)) + (z 0) -- 5. Works like a charm, Colin. Just for the heck of it I went through it all. Took a while to make out though. I removed the multiplication with the boolean result at the end. I think it's redundant.

RE: lingo-l Text box with scroll.

are you using the built in scroller function that uses the system scroller? if so it is actually an function of whatever system you are running -- kind of like how quicktime or flash appear on top of everthing unless direct to stage. Director actually runs those apps on top of the current app. So

Re: lingo-l Text box with scroll.

the downside to the custom scroll behaviors that ship with Director is that they always snap to the right side of the text box, regardless of where you have them on screen. I advise rolling your own scrolling behaviors. The first time I did it it took a little while to get the bugs worked out,
