Scroll event

[MarkoZ]

Hi,
I've been trying to make ThumbnailEx auto-select items on scrolling, so pages in GdViewer would change while user is scrolling thumbnails, but scroll event doesn't seem to fire correctly. I'm assuming this is a bug.

I've also tried to derive new control from ThumbnailEx and intercept WM_VSCROLL message, but I couldn't catch it. I might have done something wrong though, I don't have much experience using windows API directly.

Can you offer any assistance, regarding this matter?

The scroll event you are catching is the one on the base control. It is never used...

In the next release you will be able to catch a new scroll event. Here the definition:

Code: Select all

Shadows Event Scroll(ByVal Min As Integer, ByVal Max As Integer, ByVal Page As Integer, ByVal Pos As Integer, ByVal TrackPos As Integer)

Kind regards,

Loïc

Hi,
I've tried to use this event, but I still can't properly implement what I had planned.

Event only reports current position of scroll bar, but not the change in position. And since event doesn't fire when user scrolls the list with up/down/pgUp/pgDown buttons, I can't keep track of changes properly. ThumnbnailEx.VerticalScroll doesn't contain correct values either. Value property of that class always stays 0, regardless of actual scrollbar position. Is there some other way, I can get current scrollbar position on request?

And another thing. I don't think Max value reported in event is calculated properly. From my tests MaxPos = Max - Page + 1.
