Hello,

My last request (hopefully - i'm almost done . Is it possible to create a panel that displays text and a scrollbar when necessary? Kind of like the textarea box that is used for posting this message? The only difference is, I only have to display text, not allow the user to enter it.

I am currently recording a player's actions in my game. The player should be able to view a history of these "actions" in order to be able to do the next correct action. The way I would like to display this is in a panel of sorts, which would be easy except for the scrollbar.

Any ideas on how to do any of this?

Thanks in advance,

doriel

Use "text name { ... }". Look in the manual for it.
For a scrollbar , there are two options ... you could make it with buttons for 1 line down / up , or you could make a scrollbar wich will be harder (I cant think of a way right now how it could be done). There was a tutorial about scrollbars , but I dont remember who wrote it. Also , there is a 'text engine' in the AUM series , in the Morrowind section...
