I'm try to do something which should be very simple but I'm being hampered
by missing/inadequate documentation.
I'm using Constructor (from the CW6 CD) to build my form. On the form I have
a multiline field. The contents of the field are filled in by my app, and
may occupy a dozen or more lines - more than there is room for on the
screen. So, I need to put a scrollbar at the side of the field and associate
it with the field so that the user can scroll the field view up and down. I
can place a scrollbar on the form where I want it, all I need to do is tell
Constructor to bind the scrollbar to the field.
Unfortunately... The manual that came with CW6 doesn't tell you how; the
install process didn't install the Constructor help file (which doesn't seem
to be on the CD); and the Acrobat (ptui!) file on the CD only mentions
scrollbars in one place and tells you nothing about associating them with
other objects.
There's a "Has scroll bar" checkbox on the Field layout properties screen,
but it doesn't seem to do anything and there's no obvious way to identify
which scrollbar it should be using.
I'm out of ideas... Any help on this would be appreciated.
Pete
