Text Box Scroll Bars

Is it possible, and then how, to add a scroll bar to a text box so a larger document can be scrolled through on screen ?

I am using Web Designer premium.

Many thanks for any assistance.

Hi and welcome to the forum.

See this tutorial .

Although it refers to an older version of Web Designer the method is still the same for later versions of Web Designer.

Hi John,

Many thanks for the answer, it works well.

Now this has probably identified the right question !

Is it possible to have a document, text and pictures in a similar 'text' box ? I am trying to add a constitution into our website and the cut and paste into a HTML box clearly has limitations. I can easily add links to the document, that is no problem but can I have the document on screen without opening another window ? Such as the text box with a scroll bar.

Thanks in anticipation,

Regards,

Brian

Thanks again, it worked but with a little intuitive thought. The tutorial does not follow what is in Xara Premium, but managed to muddle through.
