Hi All,

How to know if a control is a scrollbar

I tried :

put the type of control 1
return empty

and

put the style of control 1
return "scale"

I didn't found something about that in the dictionary
I searched "control", "style", "type"

All the best

Hi Jean-Marc,

when you query "the name of control X" then you get something like
field "name of field"
scrollbar "my cute lil scrollbar"
button "the checkbox 1"
etc.

So you can check e.g. "word 1 of the name of control x" to get its "type"!
