Hi,

I have a TextFlow with several containerControllers. Is it possible to scroll several linked containers? It appears that the text placed in each containers can't "move" a controller to another ... Solutions exist, or I need to implement a custom scrolling?

Regards

I think you want to scroll your text through several linked containers.  That's an interesting use case but TLF doesn't support that natively.

With scrolling enabled TLF supports two cases of scrolling in horizontal text.

1) vertical scrolling in the last only by setting vertical scrollpostion.  That doesn't push text into the previous container

2) horizontal scrolling in all containers when text stretches out beyond.  Generally this only happens when the textFlow's lineBreak property is set to "explicit".

You'll need to do some type of custom scrolling to move text through the chain of containers.

Thank you for this clarification.

Also, I continue my custom scrolling!

Is there a place for sharing and demonstration of our developments with TLF?
