Hey guys!

So I’m creating an app and so far it’s been simple to figure out most things. I just need help with some stuff.

Q. How do I add lots of text to a scrollable column? Or am I doing it wrong by trying to add text in there? The app I’m creating has quite a bit of text. It’s a “diet” app.

I’d appreciate any assistance please.

Thank you

Hi,

First add Label with text to Column and then make Column scrollable. You can see an example from the link on the Buttons screen:
