To cook yourself the perfect scrolling field, you need: A graphic: 32 pixels high at least 1 pixel wide (or more for easier handling, width doesn't matter) upper 16 pixels white lower half very light blue or very light grey
Also a list type field (dontwrap= true) with: textHeight = 16 fixedLineHeight = True margins (on the "text formatting" part of the inspector): 8,4,8,8 set the backgroundPatter of this field to the image. Result: Perfect scrolling list of entries, where the background colors scroll along with the text. Tip: a textHeight of 16 with the default 11 textSize looks a bit cramped, you can adjust the hight of the lines and the hight of the graphic for other linesizes.
