Yes you are in the right direction. I maintain a Lua binding for DirectFB [1], and I've created a small example [2] to show you exactly how a scrolling window can be done. I used this approach for a Closed Caption STB module. I apologise for having the example in directfb-lua, rather than plain C. It's because Lua allows for readable, compact code (and to showoff the binding a little, the example is just 100 lines :) and it allows for fast debugging and testing. I'm sure you'll be able to translate this to C, since it uses the *same* syntax as DirectFB library (per design). Also, you can also give it a shot as it is! It should compile right out of the box. Feel free to report any issues. Hope it helps, Ezequiel.
