Horizontal scrollbar in ListBox?

Hi All
I noticed that horizontal scrollbars don't appear in list boxes; I resized the list box to fit width of page but text is still cut off.
There are no settings concerning scrollbars for list boxes.
Please advise.
LiveCycle ES 8.2.1.4029.1.523496

To disable the horizontal scrollbar and to create a next button to navigate

To disable the horizontal scrollbar and to create a next button to navigate through the records. At present I create a JSF page and drag and drop my table view and then using the Tuning property I have limited the number of records to be shown. But I need to add a button and then code it to display the next few records. Can someone kindly suggest a suitable mechanism to get this accomplished.

Hi Erp,
At present these are the entries that I have in my JSPX page.
I have a Table, Iterator and a Input List of Values. As per the scenario, I want a few rows to appear on the table for which I wanted to disable the horizontal scroll bar and then once I click on the list of values it must prompt me with the remaining page numbers.
Earlier there are about 150 records in the table. I want to show them as 15 per page.
For which I have added the Iterator and a LOV component code in my JSPX page.
<af:iterator id="i1"
value="#{bindings.NsEventDetailsView1.collectionModel}"
var="row"
binding="#{pageFlowScope.testPageBean.myIterator}"/>
<af:inputListOfValues label="Label 1"
popupTitle="Search and Result Dialog" id="ilov1"/>
Then I created the bean class as per the example.
Below is the bean class:
import javax.faces.event.ValueChangeEvent;
import oracle.adf.view.rich.context.AdfFacesContext;
import org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.component.UIXIterator;
import org.apache.myfaces.trinidad.event.AttributeChangeEvent;
public class TestPagebean {
public TestPagebean() {
public void i1ov1_valueChangeListener(ValueChangeEvent valueChangeEvent) {
// Add event code here...
private UIXIterator myiter;
public void setI1(UIXIterator myiter) {
this.myiter=myiter;
public UIXIterator getmyiter() {
this.myiter=myiter;
public UIXIterator setmyiter() {
return myiter;
UIXIterator valueIterator = getmyiter();
if (!valueChangeEvent.getNewValue().equals(valueChangeEvent.getOldValue())) {
int newPage =
Integer.parseInt(valueChangeEvent.getNewValue().toString());
int pageStart = (newPage) * valueIterator.getRows();
valueIterator.setFirst(pageStart);
AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(valueIterator);
But i am getting errors in the bean class.
1. Block expecting }
2. public UIXIterator getmyiter() {
this.myiter=myiter;
Return Statement missing
3. Block expecting {
4. Type or variable 'valueChangeEvent' not found
5. Method 'getNewValue' not found
6. Method 'getOldValue' not found
7. Method 'toString' not found
Can you suggest a possible solution?

Please mention the theme and template you are using for the Interactive Report.
Can you re-produce the issue on apex.oracle.com and share the workspace credentials, so that can have closer look at the issue?

Forms 5 Tab Canvas & Horizontal Scrollbar

We are trying to implement a tab canvas which will hold a multi-record data block. The difficulty is that we would like to display a lot of fields and there is no Horizontal Scrollbar easily available for the Tab Canvas.
We are thinking about "simulating" a tab canvas by using stacked canvases. The stacked canvas allows us to have the scrollbar, but looses some of the look & feel of a tab canvas.
Anyone try to do this in Forms 5? How about anyone try to place a stacked canvas on top of a tab canvas?

We're using forms 6.0.8.8. Our standard practice is to never put items on a tab canvas, instead we put stacked canvas' on the tab canvas. Besides having canvas scroll bars, it also provides a basis to work around documented bugs for refreshing/resizing windows when returning from other forms/windows of different sizes etc.

Horizontal scrollbar for JComboBox - Not workable under Mac

By referring to this thread Re: Horizontal scrollbar for JComboBox across multiple look and feel I try to provide horizontal scroll bar for JComboBox to my clients.
private void adjustScrollBar() {
    //if (this.getItemCount() == 0) return;
    Object comp = this.getUI().getAccessibleChild(this, 0);
    if (!(comp instanceof JPopupMenu)) {
        return;
    JPopupMenu popup = (JPopupMenu) comp;
    // Works fine under Windows and Ubuntu Linux
    // However, in OSX 10.6.4
    // javax.swing.Box$Filler cannot be cast to javax.swing.JScrollPane
    JScrollPane scrollPane = (JScrollPane) popup.getComponent(0);
    scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBar(new JScrollBar(JScrollBar.HORIZONTAL));
    scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);
}The above code will cause ClassException under OSX 10.6.4. (Works fine for Windows and Linux)
Any suggestion to resolve this problem. Sorry. I do not have a Mac machine. Hence, can't experiment out much with it.
Thanks

The following code works quite well for me.
    private void adjustScrollBar() {
        final int max_search = 8;
        // i < max_search is just a safe guard when getAccessibleChildrenCount
        // returns an arbitary large number. 8 is magic number
        JPopupMenu popup = null;
        for (int i = 0, count = this.getUI().getAccessibleChildrenCount(this); i < count && i < max_search; i++) {
            Object o = this.getUI().getAccessibleChild(this, i);
            if (o instanceof JPopupMenu) {
                popup = (JPopupMenu)o;
                break;
        if (popup == null) {
            return;
        JScrollPane scrollPane = null;
        for (int i = 0, count = popup.getComponentCount(); i < count && i < max_search; i++) {
            Component c = popup.getComponent(i);
            if (c instanceof JScrollPane) {
                scrollPane = (JScrollPane)c;
                break;
        if (scrollPane == null) {
            return;
        scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBar(new JScrollBar(JScrollBar.HORIZONTAL));
        scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);

Problem with the HORIZONTAL Scrollbar

Someone (I thanks him) has explain me how to have a horizontal scrollbar in a JTable (I use setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(...)).
So, now I have my Horizontal scrollbar but ONLY de bar and NOT the "button" in the bar. So, I am not able to scroll (and for a scrollbar it looks stupid). I have tried also setHorizontalScrollBar(...) but that didn't change anything.

1. Try calling setEnabled(true); on the scrollbar
2. Check that you need to scroll. If efffectively the knob (as the API docs call it) is larger than the scrollbar, it probably won't be shown.

ADF input text horizontal scrollbar?

JDeveloper 11.1.2.1.0
I'd like to create a user feedback messages area (read-only) using ADF that behaves in the same way as log windows do in JDeveloper. A multi-row af:inputtext is close to meeting the requirement except:
- if a line is too long for the window then a horizontal scrollbar should appear but inputtext wraps the line instead
- the window is not scrolled to the bottom by default
Does anyone know of a way to implement these behaviours for an inputtext? Or is there a more suitable component?

wrap=off forces inputtext to a single line which is no good. I want multi-line output, wrapping only if any line exceeds the window width.

Displaying Horizontal Scrollbar in h:SelectOneListbox

I am using myfaces1.1.4.
I have a popup which will search for branches based on selected countries.So basically it will show branch name and adress in a h:selectOneListbox.I have vertical scroll bar with this, but i am trying to generate the horizontal scroll bar which is not a default with this component, i think i need to customize that component.I tried to play around with style attribute.But it is not working.
This is the following code i am using:
<h:selectOneListbox value="#{backingBean.branchID}"
id="branchResults" size="5" required="false"
style="WIDTH: 510px; HEIGHT: 80px; FONT-FAMILY: Courier New;">
<f:selectItems id="branchNames"
value="#{backingBean.branchMatches}" />
I appreciate if you can look in to this.
Thanks.

Horizontal scrollbars are not attached to a block but to a canvas.
if you need some spreadtable requierement, add a stacked canvas to your content canvas, and set the CANVAS item property of these items to this canvas.
If the size of the stacked canvas is smaller to fit every items (and it probably should), you will see a horizontal scrollbar displayed at runtime.

Horizontal Scrollbar on DataGrid

Hi,
I would like to create a DataGrid with many columns that the
width of DataGrid will larger than the screen. So I need a
horizontal scrollbar on DataGrid to let user move the grid
horizontally. However I could not found which proprity is used to
enable the horizontal scrollbar and the dafault of datagrid do not
have it. Could anyone can give me some advises?
Thanks a lot!
Wilson

By default the DataGrid will size all of the columns so they
fit into the horizontal space allocated to the DataGrid. If you
want to do what you suggest, then:
<mx:DataGrid horizontalScrollPolicy="on" ... >
will turn on the scrollbar and tell the DataGrid to relax its
size constraints.

Horizontal Scrollbar in a JTextPane

How can I specify whether or not there is a horizontal scrollbar for a JTextPane? The JTextPane is held within a JScrollPane, but if I try and do:
scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
I just end up with a pointless scrollbar on the JScrollPane which doesn't do anything, because the text in the JTextPane still wraps onto the next line.
Any ideas?
Thank-you.

Use this code to cancel the line wrapping of the text pane.
JTextPane textPane = new JTextPane() {
    public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth() {
        return false;
    public void setSize(Dimension d) {
        if (d.width < getParent().getSize().width)
            d.width = getParent().getSize().width;
        super.setSize(d);
};
