I don't think so.  I've just done it at runtime in my class.  Would be  
nice ...

Easy.  Control-Drag from the object to the edge of the scrollview.  You  
should see a black line encompassing the scoller and text object.  That's  
the scrollview.  If you move into the text object, only it will have a  
black line around it and the scroller will be excluded.  That's the text  
object itself.

It's the way to go.  Otherwise, you'll have to replace the default Text  
object with your CText object at runtime.

Sorry, can't help you there.  The documentation isn't too clear on  
attributes and the 'touched' button.
