Hello everyone,
I'm a total flash newbie and i hope someone can help me out on this one :)

You see, i've created a dynamic text field and put lots of text inside it... (different formatting as well... such as font, color, size, etc...) Then, I dragged the scrollbar component onto the text field.. The thing is, once I test the movie, the text formatting resets and it sets itself to only one color, font and size... what can I do in order to get a scrollable text field with different text formatting inside it?

PS: I'd also like to know how to customize the scrollbar component now that it looks kinda "cliche'd"...

One way is to format the text as HTML and set the text field for HTML with a suitable set of CSS statements applied to the dynamic text field either using ActionScript or an external CSS file.
