I'm trying to set u a scroll bar to be attached to the text area with a border around it. The problem is my text area appears as a small screen above the bordered/scrolled text area.
Here is my code: - notesText = new JTextArea();
-
notesText.setLineWrap(true);
-
notesText.setWrapStyleWord(true);
-
-
JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(notesText);
-
scroll.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
-
scroll.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 300));
-
scroll.setBorder(BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder (BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder (BorderFactory.createTitledBorder("Enter extracts from book"), BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder (5, 5, 5, 5)), scroll.getBorder()));
Your help is very much appreciated.

scroll.setBorde r(BorderFactory .createCompound Borde r (BorderFactory. createCompoundB order (BorderFactory. createTitledBor der("Enter extracts from book"), BorderFactory.c reateEmptyBorde r (5, 5, 5, 5)), scroll.getBorde r()));

What happens when you get rid of that complicated border and the preferred
size for that scroll pane? (set the number of rows and columns in the JTextArea
instead).
kind regards,

Please take a look at and run the code snippet shown below.
It creates a canvas with vertical & Horizontal scroll-bars.
If you shrink the window to smaller than the area of the canvas, the
scroll-bars work as advertised. That's great.
However, if you click the Left Mouse button, it calls code which
expands the width of the canvas by 100 pixels. The area being viewed
expands correspondingly..... BUT I DON'T WANT IT TO!!

Is there a way to scroll a selected OPTION into view?
I have a combination of text box and SELECT list. A user can key in
text in the text box, and depending on the entry made, the respective
option in the list is to be highlighted. Somewhat like an
autocolmplete... I have been able to achieve this, however, if the
position/index of the selected option is beyond the SIZE of the SELECT
list, then the OPTION positions itself at the bottom...

I am trying to use scrollIntoView to programatically scroll an area on
one of my pages.
It wors just like you would expect it to when the page itself doesn't
have any scrolling (the page is smaller than the browser window).
However, as soon as you introduce the same code on a page that has a
vertical scrollbar, the scrollIntoView causes not only the scroll area
to move, but also the entire form.

I need to scroll a virtual grid that is 1.2M pixels x 1.28M pixels in size.
I think this is too large of a size for a control or a form, so I think I
need to "fake it" with a custom drawn control.
I do not need to maintain a bitmap or make the control surface physically
larger than the screen, becuase I can create the grid dynamically based upon
any virtual X, Y upper-left coordinate of the currently viewed area. E.g.,

Hi,
I have an application screen with a CSS scroll area. Users click links
in the scroll area which open small popup windows to enter data. When
the data is submitted, the popup reloads the opener to update the page
and closes itself. However when the parent page is updated, the div
scrolls back to the top. Is there a way to have CSS remember the
vertical scroll position and go back to it when the page is reloaded?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
