TextArea component - not giving scroll bar

I'm using Flash CS3, exporting to Flash Player 7.0, using
ActionScript 2.0.
I have a TextArea component in a movie clip that is not
showing the vertical scroll bar when there is too much text to
display in the defined area.
In fact the scroll bar doesn't even show if I set the
vScrollPolicy to true....
Another programmer in my group is also using - in another
movie clip in the same fla - the UIScrollBar component attached to
a dynamic text field - that worked at one point then now is not
working.
Is there some conflict in using these components?
Any ideas?
thanks in advance,
Lisa

Make sure that you have the ScrollBar component also in your
library. TextArea needs it I believe.

ICal - long notes disappear/scroll bar problem

I'm having issues typing in long notes in iCal. When I'm typing in the "Note" field, and I'm typing a lot, at some point my text disappears below the bottom of the pop up box (e.g. the box doesn't keep scrolling down as I type). Then I have to manually click and drag the scroll bar down to reveal what I just typed. But if I start typing again, the scroll bar jumps back up, hiding what I'm typing again. Has anyone else experienced this?

-> 3) Changed the default Window width to 5 and it's height to 12
Don't do that. That apparently guarantees the problem you have.
The Window size should be no larger than will fit on the user's screen, and the user running the lowest screen resolution should be your target. We create forms no larger than will fit on the 800x600 layout. Our forms always use the Real,Pixel coordinate system, and I create forms with the window size set to a maximum of 784x442. Those reduced numbers allow the form to fit within a browser window in web forms. Our forms run under both 6i Client/Server AND Web, and there is a pre-form that adjusts the web form window size a little larger, but that is all.
Also, when you run your form, that scrollbar you see is there because your window is not maximized. Our forms always maximize the window, and even have a when-window-resized trigger with this:
<pre><font face = "Lucida Console, Courier New, Courier, Fixed" size = "1" color = "navy">DECLARE
W0 Window := Find_Window('WINDOW0');
BEGIN
If Get_Window_Property(W0,Window_State)<>'MAXIMIZE' then
Set_Window_Property(W0,Window_State,Maximize);
End if;
END;</font></pre>
The wwr trigger ensures the user never sees the Window0 border -- it is useless unless you are running a form with multiple windows, which we never do.
So.... Maximize your Window0, and then you will see the behavior I have been describing. Create a stacked canvas with a vertical scrollbar, and it will behave even better.

I do not understand Scroll Bars!!

OK, here is my code:
JList List = new JList(Definitions);
JScrollPane scrollableList = new JScrollPane(List); If it is any help, definitions is a string array.
So, now that I have that, and please read this whole question, which do I add to the pane? List or scrollableList? Also even if i do add both of them to my pane, I don't see either of them having a scroll bar! If scrollableList is now my Listbox, how do I add event listeners to it? the regular JList listeners do not work. I want the user to be able to scroll down, view all of the strings in the listbox, and I want to be able to write an event handler for every time they select a new index. Can anyone please help me?
thanks, lateralus

Before doing anything I'd go here:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/list.html#scrollingapi
Check out what the programmer did on "how to display the list."
Then see what methods they called for the actual JScrollPane
And, you DO add the JScrollPane object to the panel.

Please help me to get the wireframe component scroll bar to actually scroll??

I can't seem to figure out how to get this working?? I have a page that is long and needs scrolling capabilities. Blargh.

Hi RemsX,
I'm glad you found some steps that worked for you, but you should be able to set up a scroll panel more easily without those strange extra steps. Try the following:
Draw a few rectangles (say, 5) arranged in a vertical stack.
Place a wireframe Vertical Scrollbar to the right of the rectangles.
Select everything and Convert to > Scroll Panel
Double-click to edit the Scroll Panel
Select all the boxes -- but not the Scroll Bar, and Convert to > Scrolling Content
You should now see a dotted-line bounding box surrounding the rectangles. Drag the bottom of the dotted-line box upwards, so that the bottom one or two rectangles are hidden (clipped).
File > Run, and verify that dragging the scroll bar causes the stack of boxes to scroll.
Does that work for you? You shouldn't need to convert anything to a generic component or graphic, or place the scrollbar inside the content... If you're having trouble with the above steps, please post back with details about which step didn't work out and we'll try to help more...

Would an issue with Adobe Reader XI be the reason I would not have a scroll bar or another way to navigate a list on a website that requires Adobe?

The publisher of our text books have an online resource we use to access materials that requires the use of Adobe Reader. For the past few days I have been unable to navigate through the site because there is not a scroll bar or any method to move through the list using the navigation bookmarks provided for that purpose. I have spoken, at length, with the online support team at the publishing company, and we have tried many trouble shooting steps. The technician I was working with also checked on the Adobe website to see if he could find anything else. He and I are both at a loss. As the problem doesn't seem to be on his end (the publisher, website, etc) or my end (my settings for PDF on my computer, version of Adobe, platform, etc.), I am hoping someone might have an idea of how to help solve this issue.

My operating system is Windows 7, I've tried both Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, and the Reader version is 11.0.09. In Chrome, the Adobe PDF plugin has been enabled and "always allow" has been selected. The Chrome PDF viewer had been disabled. The adjustments have also been made in Firefox to use Adobe Acrobat.
I appreciate any help or advice you are able to offer.

Horizontal scroll Bars not coming in JTable

Hi,
If a user streches any column of the jtable to the right such that its values are not visible properly. Then should the horizontal scroll bar come in the scrollpane in which table is there.??
If Yes then how can I do it?
I have seen when no of rows becomes more than the display area of the table then vertical scrollbar are coming automatically. but not Horizontal scroll bars.
Please help

sorry for my previous mistype, here is the right solutions to your problem.
As default the JTable will auto resize your column width, if you want horizon scrollbar
you must do following below steps:
JTable tableview = new JTable (model) ;
tableview.setAutoResizeMode (JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF) ;
JScrollPane scrollpane = new JScrollPane (tableview,
ScrollPaneConstants.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED,
ScrollPaneConstants.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED) ;
JPanel p ;
p.add (scrollpane) ;
This can works for you !

Scroll bar, as designed, creates an undesired response lag.

Observation I'm unsure if accurate, but I've experienced firsthand:
**It appears that the slider component of the scroll bar does not create/send "OnDrag" info until the cursor passes the midpoint of the slider. Thus, if I'm interested in scrolling down, for example, and I attempt to drag the control down, it won't respond until I'm half way down the component.**
This obviously means that my page won't start scrolling initially, and then it will jump, rather than smoothly scrolling.
In other tests I've done, I haven't seen the delay. For example, on a page that does not require a lot of scrolling, the slider is larger, and it seems responsive from the initial click point --- not just after the 50% point is hit. Because my tests are not displaying the same behavior, I may be off base... However...
I have produced an MP4 of me slowly dragging the slider up and down a longer page, and periodically I'll be able to have the mouse pointer leave the slider (even though I'm still in a MouseDown state), and later the slider will catch-up to the pointer. I can e-mail the file to you, if you want it.
There is additionally a lag in typing this post. As a test, I typed in the alphabet, and each character displayed instantaneously. But after a little while, about 10 characters buffered, and then all spilled out simultaneously. I wondered if it was my system, so I tried the test in Notepad, and it was fully responsive to each keystroke. (In typing the last sentence, the phrase "wondered if it was my system" all got buffered and sent to my textbox simultaneously.)
Clearly, if there's an issue with typing text, it'll likely spill over to the responsiveness of other controls. Maybe the scrollbar and textboxes are fine, but there's a bigger issue hitting FireFox internally?

A number of items from your profile can be affecting this.
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that turns off some settings, disables most add-ons (extensions and themes).
If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
*In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
*In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
* On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
* On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".<br>

Scroll Bars Missing In New Item Dialog Box When Accessing Other Site Collection

I have run into a problem I am hoping someone can quickly inform me of what I am doing wrong. I am creating 2 hyperlinks on a page that will create new items in one of 2 separate lists (1 on each site collection). I tried using the same code in my CEWP for
each and encountered a funky issue, whenever I access a different site collection with the below code the dialog box says DIALOG for the title and there are no vertical scroll bars. Does anyone know how to tweak the below code (or improve it) to bring back
the scroll bars for the dialog box?
<div class="ms-rteThemeFontFace-1" style="text-align: center; text-decoration: underline"><a class="ms-rteFontSize-3" onclick="javascript:NewItem2(event,"Site URL IS Here/_layouts/listform.aspx?PageType=8&ListId={22980de9-0d12-4def-9df7-95de34b1ebe5}&RootFolder=");javascript:return false;" href="/_layouts/listform.aspx?PageType=8&ListId={22980de9-0d12-4def-9df7-95de34b1ebe5}&RootFolder=" target="_self"><strong>Add New Project Item</strong></a></div>
I am eternally grateful to anyone that can tell me what I am doing wrong.

Browser window scroll bars

Can anyone help with ensuring Scroll bars are functional on
browser window?

Rob,
Thanks for staying with this. Unfortunatly, I am not getting
scroll bars on Mac or PC, IE, Firefox and Safari. I called Tech
Support and they told me the same thing. They suggested a fix of
placing an empty paragraph after the embedd tag, which I did and
vertical scroll bars appeared. It does not scroll the whole movie
however.
I use the default html generated by Flash with the new Active
content .js file.
If you go to these sites, you can tell me if you see scroll
bars.

Table control - scroll bar

Hello,
There is table control in my program and screen.
This object with created table control wizard.
This object on scroll bar(ver.-hor.)
I want to not see scroll bar.(visible = false)
Pleace help me.
Thanks.

Hello Melih
I do not think that we can effect the scroll bars. If the size of the screen/dynpro is sufficient to display the entire table control then there should be no scroll bar. If the screen is smaller than the table control then the GUI automatically displays the scroll bars (which makes perfect sense).
Regards
Uwe

Component on page not moving as vertical scroll bar is moved

All -
I have a mxml page that is a mx:Application. This page basically consists of a VBox
and a number of components included within that VBox. All but 1 of the components
within this VBox are built-in flex components. The one component that is not a built-in
flex component is the one that is causing me issues. The issue is happening when I run
the application, once running the vertical scroll bar appears on the right-hand side of the
page (as expected because I have quite a few items in my VBox). The problem is that as
I drag the vertical scroll bar from the top of the page to the bottom of the page, the custom
component within my VBox that I built is staying put (it's not moving with respect of the
movement of the vertical scroll bar). All of the built-in flex components that are within my
VBox are moving with respect of the movemnet of the vertical scroll bar as expected.
I appreciate any information that you can provide that will lead me in the right direction,
Thank you,
Wes

// THIS IS THE CUSTOM COMPONENT

Dynamic scroll bar not visible

I created my text in a text file (saved as testtext.txt),
then in Flash I added a dynamic text box (instance name: testtext)
and dragged a scrollbar component (instance name: ttscroll) onto
it. I then added this action script to the first frame:
ttscroll._visible = (testtext.maxscroll >1);
loadVariables("testtext.txt", this);
The text shows up fine, and scrolls if I put my mouse in the
text box and drag down. However, the scroll bar doesn't show up.
How do I get this to work?
Thanks.
PS Due to company policies I'm not allowed to download and
install anything, so I have to stick with what comes with Flash, so
please don't recommend I download someone else's scrollbar.

My first guess is that you are testing for maxScroll before
the text is
actually loaded, so the test result is false.
You could use a listener for the loading function and let the
listener's
onLoadInit() event set the scrollbar.
Another option is to use a textArea component. It has an
automatic
scrollbar.

Hide TextArea scroll bar

Has anyone found a way to hide, edit, alpha the scroll bar
with the TextArea component (flash CS3 - AS2)?
I can hide the border, alpha the background, but no way to
hide the scrollbar... arggg.
my example... when you click one of the buttons (bottom) you
will notice the scroll bar (right) flickers then disappears and the
text also shifts. I hid the border and alpha the background but
need to get rid of the scrollbar.
http://dev.webadmin.ufl.edu/~akirby/dynamicFlash2/index2.html
thanx in advance

"If you can tell me what you are trying to accomplish..."
- Folks want flash on their home page but don't know Flash or
have the app.
- I provide this "system" to them.
- They upload the files to their server
- They include the satay method of embedding the flash into
their markup (existing web page based off of official templates
provided by my office)
- All they need to maintain are the text files, images, and
css (for styling text).
- No need to open/use the Flash application to maintain this
system.
It works perfectly other then the scroll bar flickering and
text shifting bug(s) that occurs within the TextArea Component.
That's the only issue that is causing this project to be held up.
"They are always overly coded..."
Myself and two other Flashers have developed this system
(timeline) as slim and as simple as we possibly could. I'm sure
there's a better way to produce this system by using timeline
actionscripting... but our skills are limited.
"hard to trace their logic."
Logic is... not to have to open/use the Flash app to maintain
this system. Only maintain external files.

How do i add a Scroll Bar to a JList Component using absolute positioning?

I've got a applet whose content pane is set to null. I've create a jlist component on this applet and using absolute positioning set the bounds at
ListBox1.setBounds(380,10, 500, 500);.
My problem is creating add a scroll bar to the list box.
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(ListBox1);
C.add(scrollPane);
The above code is what i use and when i run this applet i don't see the list box at all. How do i add a scrollbar to this list box or JList component. Please help.

You need to setBounds() on the JScrollPane, not the JList.
The JScrollPane is the component that is being added to the panel.
