How to create gap btwn text and scrollbar?

[Kim M.]

Hi. I have a memo field/textbox with a fairly substantial amount of text
such that a vertical scrollbar is warranted. Problem is: text runs right up
to edge of scrollbar on right-hand side, which affects readability. How do I
create more of a gap between the right edge of text and vertical scrollbar?
I tried increasing the right margin, but this just pushes the scrollbar to
the left and leaves a big gap on the far side of it...
Thanks!

Hi Dale,
I tried increasing the right padding, but it did not seem to have any
effect. The text still goes right up against the scroll bar.
Thanks,
Kim

Same settings here. The text is readable -- in that the scrollbar does not
cover it up -- I just wanted more of a space betwen it and the text mainly
for aesthetic reasons.

So far, adjusting the right margin just bumps the scroll bar further to the
left, along with the text, so that doesn't work. And adjusting the padding
does not seem to have any effect on this at all.
