Description

TScrollBox is a TScrollingWinControl descendant that implements a windowed control with scroll bars. It uses the logical and physical display areas introduced in the ancestor class, and allows a scrollable area to be displayed on a form or panel. The logical (or virtual) client area represents the dimensions needed for the child Controls added to the class instance. When the logical display area is larger than the visible area for the control, scroll bars allow the content to be moved into the visible area for the control.

TScrollBox sets the visibility for properties inherited from the ancestor class. TScrollBox includes an overridden constructor which sets the default values for properties in the class instance.

Child Controls can be added to the class instance at design-time, or at run-time by setting the scroll box as the Parent for a control.

The AutoScroll property indicates whether the scroll bars are automatically displayed (or hidden) as needed when the control is resized, or when child Controls are updated. This includes setting the page, range, and visibility for the scroll bars. Use the HorzScrollBar and VertScrollBar properties to access scroll bar page, range, and visibility when AutoScroll is not enabled.

An example application using TScrollBox is located in the examples/imgviewer directory.
