Scrolling Textbox?

I’m trying to build a GUI scrolling textbox where the content will be of unknown length and will change (but not user editable).

While BeginScrollView is nice, I am forced to determine the scroll height before I build any content, not that there’s any way to poll the height of content or to get a TextArea to auto-adjust its height depending on its content.

Wait, what? You’re talking about creating a textbox that scrolls - which you can do with a ScrollView - but then talk about resizing the textbox based on the content? Color me confused…

In the interest of not creating a very long, very condescending post about how you’re oblivious to what I’m trying to do, I’ll be brief:

I’m changing the text in the code, duh.

As the user navigates the application, the text changes to detail whatever it is that they’re looking at (they’re not allowed to edit it for obvious reasons).

If you’re looking for a scrolling marquee type of setup, I remember seeing a couple implementations on the wiki.
