New to GameSalad need help!

Hello all. *Waves*

So being newer to GameSalad I have run aground. I have searched the forums for days now and can't find my answer. To the best of my knowledge no keywords brought up a subject. But here is my problem.

Im displaying a game score in the top right corner of my in-game screen. However when points get added to it and the score grows it begins to fall off the edge of the screen cutting away digits. How do I constrain the text field to grow from right to left keeping it locked to the starting position?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and Hello again!

    I would just move the whole actor that contains the score to the left and let it build naturally. I try to get a good working version of the game done first then start tweaking parts. Sometimes what I thought was important turnes out not to be. Good luck!

    I have an idea! Say when the score reaches 100 tell it to change the x or y co-ordinates?
