Scroll Bars in Desktop Output

Am I missing something, or shouldn't there be scroll bars in the desktop output for multiscreen HTML5 in RH10?
I have a few longer topics that don't fully display, and there is no way to scroll down on the desktop (can't use the mouse wheel, arrow keys, or scroll bars (as there aren't any)). The way I found to scroll down on the desktop output version is to highlight the text and drag down, but that isn't going to work.

Because the overflow is different, in SharePoint (native output only) some text may be hidden. But you will have to publish to SharePoint to know for sure. It's just that I do not guarantee that this fix works on SharePoint.
Greet,

How to fix double vertical scroll bar in responsive output

After implementing the solution provided for the question 'Responsive HTML5 Output: How to auto adjust the screen resolution for all devices?', the function bar in output does not appear and also another vertical scroll bar in the output. I edited the max-width value in the layoutfix.min.css file and fixed the function bar issue. How can I do away with the additional vertical scroll bar?

I've looked into the issue.
@Delennish: In your case, the size of the iframe is too large, or you have an extra empty element below the iframe. You can try 2 things:
1. Best solution but may have side effects: In the main.css, add the following code:
div.contentholder { overflow: hidden !important;}
For this option, please check for undesired side effects.
2. Works, but is ugly: In the main.css, add the following code:
div.floatholder iframe.wTopic { height: 95% !important;}
Try playing with the height setting until the 2nd scrollbar disappears.
@CarolW: The layout you're using is very old. I've made a new responsive layout with TOC only. Please use that one instead: http://www.wvanweelden.eu/sites/default/files/attachments/Theme1_Standard_TOC_Only.zip (I'll update my site with this new version later.)

Removing multiple scroll bars of desktop inner page.

Hi,
    The problem is that multiple horizontal and vertical scrollbars are appearing on the homepage of the portal. So, I need to remove the extra scroll bars which are visible on the desktop inner page area.
     I have tried setting the Isolation method as both "URL" and " Pumped-Deprecated" which was previously set to "Embedded" . Also, I tried to set the height type to "Fixed" and "Full-Page". But the scroll bars still appear.
    Please help me in solving this issue if anybody knows about it.
    Thanks in Advance !!

Hi,
   I tried changing the properties of both the desktop inner page and the iview inside the inner page, but the scroll bars are not removed.
Could u please provide the details of which other property should be changed as I tried changing the height type and isolation method as mentioned earlier.
Thanks..

Scroll bars missing in CHM output

When importing a project from HelpStudio, everything imports, but it seems that 2nd level TOC topics are not displaying vertical scroll bars when viewed in the CHM output.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
Suggestions? ("Other than use another format")
-Matt

Heya Matt
Try looking at the HTML behind the offending topics. See if they make mention of a scroll=no anywhere. If so, that's likely your culprit! Remove the scroll=no and you should be set.
Cheers... Rick

[Desktop][Other] Scroll bars need to be brighter

Hi - like others I'm not sure about the new shade of green, but I think the one real improvement needed is to lighten those grey scroll bars...the poor contrast against the dark background makes them very difficult to see particularly the right of screen one - white (or even the green!) would help... must be seriously awkward for any user who has a visual impairment... Cheers WRSpot the scroll!

[Desktop][Music] Change colour of scroll bars

I think the scroll bars should have a more contrasting colour. Also be wider. It is to easy to slip pointer off the scroll bar when using.

Remote Desktop scroll bar on Window snap to top of screen issue

I have an external monitor attached to my laptop and it has a screen resolution of 1920 x 1200. My laptop screen has a resolution of 1920 x 1080.
I create remote desktop connection files for connecting to a number of internal servers. When I create them , I set the display resolution to 1920 x 1080. This means that I can snap it to the top of my laptop screen and it will go full screen, or I can snap
it to my external monitor, and it will pseudo full screen (has no side borders, but has a window title), but will leave a small gap at the bottom so I can access my taskbar (which extends across multiple screens thanks to DisplayFusion)
However, recently instead of going into this pseudo full screen, it no opens at 1920x1080, but has vertical and horizontal scroll bars.
Running Windows 7 x64 Ultimate and the Remote desktop versions are Shell version 6.3.9600, Control version 6.3.9600, Remote Desktop Protocol 8.1 supported.
Does anyone know why this would have start doing this?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply Alex.
I'm not sure what you mean by configured the screen resolution of my 1920x1080 monitor? The resolution of both screens have been set : The one on my laptop is 1920x1080, and the external monitor is 1920x1200.
My remote desktop session resolution is set to 1920x1080, and if I drag it to my laptop monitor it makes it full screen, exactly as I want.
If I drag the remote desktop session to my external monitor, I would expect it to snap to the top of my screen, filling the width, but leaving some space at the bottom. This is how it used to behave, but recently, it has started to show scroll bars.
There are no remote desktop policies related to resolution settings.Karl

I just upgraded to MS Project Professional 2013 desktop from 2010 desktop. My horizontal scrollbar at the bottom of my gantt chart has disappeared. How do I get it back? Thanks. (The option "Show scroll bars" is checked).

will not let me attach a screenprint

Hi Dale,
Everything was maximized so that wasn't it. When I went into another project schedule it did not happen at all.
This was a dumb user error problem. :-( The horizontal scroll bar disappeared because all the columns fit on the screen so there was nothing to scroll. However I wanted to stretch out the most far right column (the Notes column) so that it would print
nicely on legal landscape paper and it wouldn't let me. Of course I fixed it by widening a different column which brought the horizontal scroll bar back.
What's weird is I never had this problem with MSP 2010 (probably just coincidentally) so of course I wanted to blame 2013 since I just got it. :-)
Thanks for your help.

Issue with Multithreading and vertical scroll bar - help needed to debug!!!

I have been working on a desktop Visual Studio 2010 application for quite a few years. It is written in C++ and MFC. This code is a combination of code I have written and code I inherited. It worked great for years on Windows XP, but when I ported
it to Windows 7, a tricky problem has come up that I am having the darnest time trying to figure out
In summary, it is a single .exe desktop application. There is the main thread (thread A), which launches another thread (thread B). Both threads share a pointer to a single window object which displays events. This window also implements a vertical and horizontal
scroll bar.
The interaction and message processing between the threads seems a little sticky to me. Both threads A and B call the same member function of the CWnd object. BUT, Thread B ALSO posts messages to thread A's queue.
So, in thread B, you will see code like this, which makes a direct call to the output window object, AND THEN it also posts a message to Thread A's mainframe window like this...
if( m_pEventLog )
pOutputWindow->AddLine("Some test...");
if( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE] && m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE] ) {
::PostMessage( m_phNotifyWnd[RECEIVE], m_puiEventWMsg[RECEIVE], 0, (LPARAM) pPkt );
WHEN thread A receives the message that thread B posted above, it only does the following:
LRESULT CMainFrame::OnSocketReceive( WPARAM, LPARAM lParam )
CSPkt* pPkt;
CRWPkt* pRWPkt;
CSPktSocket* pSocket;
ULONG ulType;
CString csTemp;
CBSWords bsWords;
CSSSWords sssWords;
CRWPkt* pLoopBackRWMsg; // used if we have to send a loopback msg back to sender
CLMsg lmsg;
m_wndTextWindow.AddLine("Test message");
return 0;
So both threads are writing to the output window via the .AddLine() member function.
void COutputWnd::AddLine( CString& strLine, COLORREF crColor )
UpdateVScroll();
return;
And this function then makes a call to :UpdateVScroll(). The problem seems to arise because thread B does a
post to thread A, where thread A in turn writes to the output window. Eventually, the program
HANGS in the call to
SetScrollInfo() below...
void COutputWnd::UpdateVScroll()
CSingleLock lock( &m_CSVertScrollLock ); // lock things up while we are in here
BOOL bok = lock.Lock();
if (lock.IsLocked() == TRUE)
int iMax = m_FifoIndices.GetHighestIndex();
if( iMax < ( m_iMaxViewableLines - 1 ) )
iMax = 0;
//SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, iMax, FALSE );
//SetScrollRange( SB_VERT, 0, 9, FALSE );
SCROLLINFO scrollinfo;
scrollinfo.cbSize = sizeof(SCROLLINFO);
scrollinfo.fMask = SIF_RANGE;
scrollinfo.nMin=0;
scrollinfo.nMax= iMax;
SetScrollInfo(SB_VERT, &scrollinfo, FALSE);
lock.Unlock();
It doesn't take long for the program to hang...maybe about 10 seconds.
When I hit DEBUG->BREAK ALL, I get the output below in the CALL STACK WINDOW.

NOTE: If I never make the call to SetScrollInfo(), the program never HANGS.
Sooo....I am trying to determine if there is a fundamental issue with the way the threads are communicating that is causing the issue, or if maybe I have a memory overwrite. It always hangs in ::SetScrollInfo(), no matter what I comment and uncomment. This
makes me think that scroll bat behavior is different in Windows 7 than on XP, but I have not been able to find any documentation about it.
Can anyone provide any insight as to what may be the cause of the program hanging>

It might look like working but it will crash eventually. The windows are thread affine and other thread must never touch other threads windows. Sometimes you might get along but usually it just crashes.
Thread B must use PostMessage ( or SendMessage if suncronous action is require) to thread A's windows to achieve correct updating. Some very basic calls are implemented directly with SendMessage so they are safe to use but then you must individually check
which ones are safe.
Also having multiple SendMessage calls from B to A require rendezvous which might cause other problems ( thread B stalls or program deadlocks, depending on other program structure).
So PostMessage is the way to do it ( or create yourself another inter-thread mechanism, possible but usually too much troble)

Hello.
We've noticed that the TOC slide bar/scroll bar is not displaying via iPad. It does show Desktop via Safari and FireFox. Is there a setting we have missed perhaps?
Many thanks

Depending on your issue, making an appoint will be offered as an option by choosing "Take in for Service" (see http://www.macrumors.com/2014/11/07/apple-genius-bar-online/). Of course, you could also just try calling your local Apple store.

Scroll Bar in ALV Top Of Page

Hi Ppl,
I am using REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE to display top of page in ALV. The issue is i want to restrict the top-of-page height.
As of now if i have 10 lines to print...the top-of-page comes with 10 lines in display.
But i want some (say 4 or 5) to be visible with scroolbar and rest can be viewed by use of the scroll--bar movement!!
Any soln?? Please reply
Regards,
Santosh!!

Hi Santosh,
I am not sure if that is possible by using FM approach. - REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE
But yes its possible if you are using Docking Container. with split container approach. ie. OOPs .
Refer sample code.

I'd like an alphabet scroll-bar for my folders in Mail. Will this be added anytime soon?

I've been using Mail for years and find it convenient for use across all devices, off-and online. I really like that I can place a rule so that each email will automatically be delivered into individual folders. This makes it easy to organize my emails for search purposes, and to keep a clean and relevant Inbox. Sometimes, depending on my internet connection....it can sometimes cease at home and my desktop will be in sleep mode, and my emails won't be automatically ruled into their appropriate folders. This is ok, because I just manually file them. However, I have many folders. It would be an added bonus if there is an alphabet scroll-bar in the folders source list to the left of the Mail app. screen.
It appears that so much time and energy has gone into renovating the Mail application throughout the years, and the clean design and ease of use is noticeable and appreciated. I feel they would be complemented by the scroll-bar.
I'm just wondering if Apple has this in mind for any new updates to Mail?
Thanks!

Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions.
Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

How can I retrieve the scroll bar in Home applications using OS 10.6.8? I don't have a general section after clicking on System Preferences. Thanks.

I have deleted the scroll bar twice in 4 years and I still don't know how to set it back. Please help.

hi Samberl
thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
Your suggestion sounds very promising - I didn't know about 'cloning'.
Yes the idea is to backup the laptop - I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically across to the new drive myself each day or two...
Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb ? = under the HD icon on desktop is written :
" 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free "
I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
When CCC site says it backs up the hard drive - would this mean all my files [over 100 gb] that are mostly in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon, would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ] ?
thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it.
It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

How do I view the Horizontal Scrolling bar and status bar at the bottom of the screen. I can only see the top menus, toolbars and vertical scroll bar?

Before the most recent upgrade, the bottom horizontal scrolling bar and status bar appeared on my screen. Now since upgrading, I cannot see the. Anyone ideas how to restore them?

If you haven't already, you could force-quit Quicktime by using the menu option from the desktop (finder) and choose Quicktime.
Not sure what you have frozen on the screen, be it a failed movie, or some unusual screen shot. If you can find by date (created) you may be able to look for .mov or quicktime suffix name or other video file content to delete it.
And you may have to restart your computer and perhaps run repair disk permissions from Disk Utility's first aid on the hard disk drive in your computer.
Not sure if all that would help now, but it is something a few days late...!
Good luck & happy computing!

How can I get a scroll bar at the bottom of the page so I can see the right side of the page when I am using two windows?

With two or three pages open, I have scroll bars that allow me to see the right side of the other pages, but not on the Firefox page.

Thank you for the reply, Fred, but when I went to my saved screenshot, I realized that the shortcut on my desktop had opened in IE, not Firefox. There is no scroll bar and the directional arrows do not work. My daughter has been playing with my laptop again. When I set up the same conditions with Firefox, there is no scroll bar, but the arrows function properly, so I can read to the right edge of the page. Now to find someone who knows IE11. Thanks again, for your reply.
