Hi there,
its my first time here.

.. i am not even close to knowing a confortable ammount of action script ... i've been trying to finnish a website using flash mx 2004 for some friends .. www.infamous.ro and been using scroll panes to display dynamically loaded info in the news and goods subsections of the site.

the scrollpanes are loading swfs which read a file and generate the content "list" in them (fonts + images).

i am encountering the "overflow" problem in which the content spills out when loaded for the first time

i've read macromedias documentation (tried to load the swf in a movie instance first and then pass it over to the scroll pane) but the setScrollContent command doesnt seem to have any effect...

i have embedded the font used (verdana) into the original swf ... and all the other just to be on the safe side....

i am sorry for wasteing your time if a solution to a similar problem has been displayed but i havent been able to find it.

any ideeas on a solution? or why the setScrollContent isn't working

If your using the Flash MX 2004 scroll pane component, there is no setScrollContent method. That was for the old Flash MX scroll pane.
