Be careful to select the container frame, not the content.

With the container frame selected you should see the oprions in Pan Only Panel.

I have no idea if this will work (or if this is the 'right' way), but I just learned this in class the other night...we were told that the text box should be in a layer called "Scrollable Content" along with your scroll box, and they should both be named the same thing. Then do the cut/paste.

Hi Bob,

Here are the screen shots as you requested.

thanks for your help thus far.

You are using older set of tools. In this case, you need toupdate the tools to latest set, else follow this workaround which I've been using since drop 10.

1) Create the placeholder or graphic frame.

2) Place any image or graphic in it.

3) Select the "Pan & Zoom" option in Overlay Creator.

4) Now remove the image.

5) Align the top left corner of the text frame with the place holder (graphic) frame.

   (Use the Alignment" options available on the control panel to align the text frame and the graphic frame)

6) Now use the "Paste into" command to paste the text in it. The "Pan and zoom" will work just fine. We've been using this approach since long time.

   Having said that, still you must go ahead and update the DPS tools to make use of all the new features and work with nested overlays.

Hi Bob -- I'm trying to get a scrolling frame that has images placed in it and grouped to work when used as a State in a MSO. The scrolling worked prior to creating the MSO. I used the Pan command in the Overlay panel I have loaded to Paste Into the text and images. Do I need to update to 19 to do that using "Scrolling Frame" option instead? Also, does the May 2 "Mandatory" Folio Builder upgrade apply to everyone no matter what? We're on CS5.5. ?? Thanks, Beth 

Re scrollable frame not working in an MSO, I found the answer -- The text and images that I pasted into the container frame had the box checked that lined up at Upper Left. If I checked "Use Document Position" instead, the frame scrolls fine on the iPad. Thought you'd like to know! Beth

Hi Bob --  I'm using 19 ... but did you see my final post to this question where

I discovered how to fix it? I changed the Scrollable frame setting's Initial

Content Position to "Use document position" rather than "Upper left" and the

frame scrolled fine that way.

While I have your attention, I have another open question about a sound file in

an MSO on another page that won't stop playing when you turn the page even

though "Stop on page turn" box is checked. It's on a timeline with 11 buttons

that play music clips and its the last one. They all work fine until you get to

the end and then the last file won't stop playing AND the associated text seems

to wig out, too, ... gives you the wrong text for the audio! Is there a size

limit problem? Maybe I have too many files? When you play that file by itself,

it's fine. Bounce around on the timeline too much and the app quits. Yikes! Beth
