  I am using the text box a lot in my program. I don't mean the text box you can add text to, but rather the box that simply displays text. Is there a way in which I can automatically add a white background to the box?

  So far, the only solution I have come up with is adding a sprite of a white image behind the text - this however is a real pain, as I have a ton of boxes, and adding an image behind doesn't quite fit the proportions of the text box. Is there some plug in that can add a white background behind the text?

  Alternatively, I've tried using the "Text box" option. However, I cannot figure out how to get the line break to work. I write "Hello" & newline & "World." in the text section of the text box, but it displays ""Hello" & newline & "World."" I'd prefer to be able to use the "text" option, as that way I won't have to do all the line breaks manually, but I was wondering if there was some easy way to add a white box behind the text.

  Thanks!!!

  Hello,

  I have a series of layouts. I am trying to make it so that pressing left or right keyboard goes to the next or previous layout.

  Here is my project: dl.dropbox.com/u/65183389/map%20project001/index.html

  as you can see, the keyboard buttons only work for the first layout.
