Scroll bar in Dialog layer not keyboard-accessible

I just published and tested a course that uses dialog layers for feedback on question slides.  When testing the course with a keyboard (without a screenreader), I noticed that you cannot tab into the text box or control the scroll bar to read additional text.  

Please fix this so that sighted keyboard users (who don't need a screenreader) can scroll up or down in the text boxes using the arrow keys or Page Up/Down keys.  Or if there is a way to fix this, please let me know.  Thanks.

    Correct -  I should have said, "put the text box inside of the scrolling panel"

    A work around is to put the text inside of a Scrolling Panel instead of using the one generated by the Text Formatting.

    Thanks. How do I put text inside a scrolling panel?  I can't seem to type it in or copy it from a text box.

    EDIT: Never mind, it looks like I have to drag the text box into the scrolling panel.
