Hello, I’ m making a client and server script runner for my game but I have encountered an issue with the Text in the TextBox.
Image:
As you can see the Text goes out the TextBox and does something very weird.
Can anyone help me make it so the text is scrollable for both X and Y axis?
Thanks for anyone who can.

Just parent the frame to a scrolling frame and in the canvas size put for example (0,4,0,4).
Yeah but will the scrolling frame size change according to how long the text is?

Make the TextBox.TextFits
property of the textbox to true.

Already enabled. And I can’ t disable it
And it still won’t scale properly?
Same thing happens that I showed in the screenshot
Either make the frame bigger or make the TextScaled property true.
This is supposed to be a code editor so I don’ t think this is what I want.
Disable TextScaled then. Is RichText enabled? That’s probably your problem if it is. Try disabling RichText too.
Happens when RichText enabled and disabled this is not what I want, I want it to be scrollable both for X and Y axis.

You can set the scrolling frame canvas size to:
local TextBounds = TextBox.TextBounds
ScrollingFrame.CanvasSize = Udim2.new(0, TextBounds.X, 0, TextBounds.Y)
Should I use a GetPropertyChangedSignal on it so everytime it changes it updates?

Yes, is a option, you can also do it every frame while the TextBox is focused. (If need example notice me)
ScrollingFrame works fine but the normal TextBox doesn’ t
I already tried making ScrollingFrame Size the same as the TextBounds like you suggested but It just made it very small.
Any fixes? And by the way I really appreciate you helping me!
