Is there a way to have an offset between a text view and the scroll view it is embeded in? I tried setting different frames and also repositioning in super view but, right before typed text wraps, the scroll resets the text view to its own size/position. Since I added a light background color to the text view, it looks bad with the text touching the edge of the color. So I guess I need to inset the text view and give the scroll view's background the same color. Can this be done with HIView APIs at all (couldn't find it in the headers/docs)? Or do I need to use text handling calls (MLTE?) to set a margin?

Yes, you need to use MLTE... something like this:

	TXNObject	textOb = HITextViewGetTXNObject( textView );
	TXNMargins	margins = {
		0, 4, 0, 4
	};
	TXNControlData	controlData;
	controlData.marginsPtr = &margins;
	TXNControlTag	theTag = kTXNMarginsTag;
	TXNSetTXNObjectControls( textOb, false, 1, &theTag, &controlData );
