reset scrollbar on import of new text

[apollo1]

So I am using the scrollbar component to scroll a text field. I am importing different text files into the field when the user clicks on one of a number of links.

The problem is, after importing a new text file, the thumb on the scrollbar doesn't move up to the top. I finally figured out how to make the scrollbar resize when new text is imported (scrollbar.setEnabled()), but it doesn't reset the field with the text at the top. So if you scroll down, and then click on a button to change the text, you have to scroll back up to the top to read the new text.

Anyone know how to make it go back to the top when new text goes in?

Hey. Could you kindly post the .fla as I can't get my scroll bar to reset...?? I can't figure what I am doing wrong...thanks.

I made a little version of the one of the fla's I was working on--I stripped out all the extra junk, so it should be pretty straightforward. Good luck.

Or if you wanted something a little cleaner...

thanks for that. I had found a solution (separate scroll bar on each frame), but these are a lot simpler so I have made the change. thanks.
