No, I don't believe you can.

You can control more than one text field with 1 single scrollbar. I made that with my own scrollbar, dunno if it works with the scrolbar component.

im furious

i tried to attach an example, and guess what! a single flash file with a single scrollbar component in it is too big to upload!!! I always wondered how much junk was in those FUI folders. A lot!

well here is the basic idea.

textField3.onScroller=function () { textField1.scroll=textField2.scroll=textField3.scr oll;
}

or you can MC the whole thing and play with the _y value

both work fine

Yeah clownstaples, the scrollbar component alone contains 82 items in it, it seriously beefs up the file size.

And I get what you are saying, makes sense :thumb:
