Hi Sue,
1. There is no ScrollBars like property in the new EditControl presently. We have considered this as a feature request - #246, and will try our very best to implement the same at the earliest. You could track the progress of this feature request at this link below :
Feature Request #246 - Suppor for ScrollBars property
2. The issue with the scrollbars being displayed when not required has been taken care of and the fixes are available in out latest internal build. Please create a Direct-Trac incident in this regard if you wish to receive the build.
We appreciate your continued interest in Essential Edit.
