title: Actionscript 3 hide overflow of a sprite
body: <p>I am trying to create a sprite in Actionscript 3 using Flash Professional with fixed width and height that contains a list of TextFields that scrolls up and down.  I want the highlighted textfield to be fixed focus with the text that goes out of the sprites bounds to be invisible.  I am new to AS3 and tried to set the width and height of the sprite but it did not work.  I would do this with CSS by having a  with a fixed width and height and setting the overflow property to hidden.  Thanks for any help!</p>
