InheritanceScrollText Inheritance Scroller Inheritance FeathersControl Inheritance Sprite Inheritance DisplayObjectContainer Inheritance DisplayObject Inheritance EventDispatcher Inheritance Object

Displays long passages of text in a scrollable container using the runtime's software-based flash.text.TextField as an overlay above Starling content on the classic display list. This component will always appear above Starling content. The only way to put something above ScrollText is to put something above it on the classic display list.

Meant as a workaround component for when TextFieldTextRenderer runs into the runtime texture limits.
