Text Area scroll.

 [1/9] from: bga::bug-br::org::br at: 8-Dec-2003 18:30


Hello. By know I learned how to use scroll bars in text areas to scroll the text inside it (vertically and horizontally). Now I need the scroll bars to auto-move to represent the current position being displayed in the text view when I use the cursor keys to move around the text. I also need to know how to scroll the text area to a specific text position (like scroll to top and scroll to bottom). Any help will be apreciated. -Bruno

Bruno, I remember last time I asked here just the same and unfortunately I got only one reply from the list that didn't solve the problem at all. I still need to get the path to get this this "auto-move" you mentioned so in case you have a clue write me pls um abraço Carlos Lorenz Em Seg 08 Dez 2003 18:30, Bruno G. Albuquerque escreveu:

Re: Text Area scroll. Here is a demo It demonstrate the adjustment of the scroller when you edit the area. More works is needed for, in example, adjusting the scroller when you change the text in the area by programing. DideC

Introduction to VID With REBOL/View it's easy and quick to create your own user interfaces. The purpose of this tutorial is to teach you the basic concepts or REBOL/View interfaces in about 20 minutes. VID is REBOL's Visual Interface Dialect. A dialect is an extension of the REBOL language that makes it easier to express or describe information, actions, or interfaces. VID is a dialect that provides a powerful method of describing user interfaces. VID is simple to learn and provides a smooth learning curve from basic user interfaces to sophisticated distributed computing applications. 1.1. Creating VID Interfaces VID interfaces are written in plain text. You can use any text editor to create and edit your VID script.

Use a newer View beta. I think you are using View 1.2.1 to test this ? It requires scroller style, which is only available in view betas newer than 1.2.1 Anton.

Anton, hmmmm this seems to be the trouble thanks Carlos Em Qui 11 Dez 2003 00:28, you wrote:
