Description

Property; a deprecated property that controls the display of information in a text field associated with a variable. The `scroll` property defines where the text field begins displaying content; after you set it, the Flash Player updates it as the user scrolls through the text field. The `scroll` property is useful for directing users to a specific paragraph in a long passage, or creating scrolling text fields. This property can be retrieved and modified.

Example

The following code is attached to an Up button that scrolls the text field `myText`:

    on (release) {
    	myText.scroll = myText.scroll + 1;
    }
