Native Scrollbar Issue

Post by steve_nam » Fri Jul 11, 2014 8:39 am

My native scrollbar in Android works perfectly, but when I place the group lower on the stack/change its position and I scroll it does not return/scroll to the top of the text.

What am I doing wrong? Anybody in the forum that can assist?

hi Steve,

I think you have to reinit your scroll when you change its loc.
Best regards

Hi Jean-Marc
Can you be a bit more specific about how "to reinit your scroll when you change its loc."

I really appreciate your readiness to assist.

Thanks a million,
Steve

Hi Steve,
When you create a native scrollbar you have to define rect and contentrect like this

Code: Select all

   iphoneControlSet scrollid, "rect", fldRect
   iphoneControlSet scrollid, "contentRect", (0, 0, fldWidth, fldHeight)
You have to redefine them after moving the group
