Max Value of the Scrollbar not correct result

[Stephane Fonteyne]

Paul,

Can you please check this code but it give not the correct result as max value if the scrollbar move to the end right.

Code Select Expand



In DesignTime:

Set the scrollbar in the property tabpage of FireFly SDK Designer:

LargeChange : 5
Max : 1000
Min  : 0
Value : 0



Code Select Expand



'Runtime code
'--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function DLGFORM1_HSCROLL1_WM_HSCROLL ( _
                                      ControlIndex  As Long,  _  ' index in Control Array
                                      hWndForm      As Dword, _  ' handle of Form
                                      hWndControl   As Dword, _  ' handle of Control

            si.nPos = nPosition
        Case %SB_PageUp
            si.nPos -= si.nPage
        Case %SB_PageDown
            si.nPos += si.nPage
    End Select

    '=================================================================

    lPos = FF_ScrollBar_GetPos (HWND_DLGFORM1_HSCROLL1)
    FF_TextBox_SetText(HWND_DLGFORM1_TEXT1, Str$(lPos))
End Function


I set the max value to 1000 and see in runtime 996 why ?????. How can I see the result 0 to 1000 and not 0 to 996?

Can somebody help me how I can solve this or is that an bug in FireFly?

Kind regards

If you set the value of a scrollbar to a certain maximum, it might not reach it to keep some elements visible. The remaining 4 elements must be the ones visible.

for example:

Code Select Expand

1
2
... etc...
994
995
996      <-----starts visible elements.
997
998         
999
1000    <----ends visible elements.


Its no bug in firefly, its a flaw on your side. If you want your element to be 1000 exactly, then set the number of elements per page (largechange) to 1.

By the way, i suggest you to use the B word more carefully, nobody likes to constantly be blamed for the coding errors of others. You are more likely to get help that way.
