Here's what I'm thinking. Not sure whether the Palm scrollbar widget, in the way that we use it, can support this, though. We keep the current scrollbar action, but we use the paragraph count to add a scaling factor. So imagine chunk #2 of a multi-chunk page. Let's say the page contains 100 paragraphs, and chunk #2 contains paragraphs 26-50 of those 100. Currently, when we view chunk #2, the scrollbar, which goes from 0-100%, represents just the chunk, not the page. Can we scale the scrollbar, so that in this case the range of motion of the scrollbar's elevator would only be from 26% to 50% of the full scrollbar? This would then be scaled to the full range of the chunk by the appropriate arithmetic, whenever a scrollbar event was received. Where's the viewer code that interfaces with the scrolling? Bill
