G'day,

I need to be able to scroll some text that the user can't edit. They are user instructions that will not fit on the window.

I have tried an EditField that is not enabled and then using a ScrollBar control, but the text goes gray and does not look right.

Make it a multi - line Read Only Edit Field that can't receive the focus. This should do what you want.


Can you scroll StaticText? I have tried but not succeeded.

Is there something else?

Also, can you make an EditField have a transparent background?

I don't know - sounds like you are working on a cool about window.

Good Luck

Ian
