Adding a vertical scrollbar to a multiline textfield

Hi all,

I hope someon can advise as to the best way to do what I want. I have a multiline textfield that receives a very long piece of text. I wanted to add a vertical scrollbar. I tried putting the multiline textfield inside a scroll view but I'm not sure how you would tell the latter when to provide a scrollbar. Presumably the textfield has to be a descendant of the scrollview but I thought that putting one inside the other would do that.

I also tried to use a textview but in that case I got an error saying that NSTextView may not respond to setStringValue.

What is the best way to do this?


Ian. --
