Bonjour Gregory,

You might try to set your label field "right aligned" (pane Text  
formatting of the inspector).
(By default, a label field is "left aligned").

Not sure that a label field be optimum if you need it scrolling. If  
the change "right align" does not fix your problem, then try a normal  
text field instead for you columns headers, I am pretty sure that your  
"on scrollBarDrag" would works well.
