Sadly, you can't make a control box object...

As for the Picture Box object. I don't know how it works in AM. I've tried all the usual VB properties: ImageLocation, Picture, BackgroundImage etc. but none seem to work...

Sorry mercedes.

I'm not sure if GMSupport, Lyberodoggy or ShadowHunter know either...

I would think Shadow would be able too being as he made Rain Generator with one.....Alrighty,..i just wondered, Another one i can't seem to load, like i don't see anything..is the Imagebox..nothing shows up on my screen at all.

I can load the picture box..i just don't know how to put a picture in it..:? I wanted a box that I could write in with Scroll Bars..also..This i wanted more than anything....oh well..

Hotspots are imageboxes.
As for the scrollbars, you can add them to textboxes I think

Well u can write in a textbox as well...

Simply use the code:

Code: Select all
TextBoxObject(1).Text = "[Text]"


and make sure to use the code:

Code: Select all
TextBoxObject(1).Locked = "True"


to stop the user from typing in it.

To add scrollbars to a textbox, I think the code is:

Code: Select all
TextBoxObject(1).Multiline = "True"


I'm not sure if it works in AM though...
