    You can't. But I did see posted somewhere a custom scrollbar where you could. I'm not sure where that is but I'll see if I can find it and then post it in the code repository.

    Here's one source:

    Here's an example stemming from Leban's link in Allan's post above which I just posted in the code repository.

    It has Leban's example along with another one I made (which I like better but based fully on the author's code and which doesn't give an error on not finding the rotatetextcontrol.ocx reference.)

    (thanks for the link Allan - this gave me something to play with today!)
