Yes, they are clipped.
I just tested: 1000 TShapes in a TScrollBox are no problem. Although it
needs double buffering.
Under gtk you can also put 1000 buttons without problem.
And 1000 TListBoxes with 20 items each are slow, but still usable.
Although the LCL caches write warnings because they suspect a leak. ;)
I tested cross compiled under wine:
It is really slow.
So, the LCL does not scale too bad.
Maybe someone wants to test under native window:
procedure TForm1.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
var
i: Integer;
j: Integer;
begin
for i:=0 to 999 do begin
with TListBox.Create(Self) do begin
SetBounds((i mod 33)*50,(i div 33)*50,50,50);
for j:=1 to 20 do
Items.Add(IntToStr(j));
Parent:=ScrollBox1;
end;
end;
end;
