ScrollBar parameters

You can set the following parameters for each scroll bar instance in your Flash document using the Parameters tab on the Property inspector or the Component Parameters panel.

Horizontal specifies whether the scroll bar is horizontal (true) or vertical (false).

Target Text Field is a string specifying the instance name of the text field for the scroll bar. This parameter is automatically filled in with the instance name of the text field when the scroll bar snaps to the text field on the Stage. Changing or deleting this parameter disassociates the scroll bar from the text field on the Stage. You use the FScrollBar.setScrollTarget method to specify this parameter at runtime.

You can set additional options and functionality for scroll bar instances using the methods of the FScrollBar (component). Some of the methods of the FScrollBar component are not recommended for use with scroll bars attached to text fields.
