Tip of the Day: Automatic Scrolling Text in Memo/Rich Edit Controls
Product.......: R:BASE X.5 and R:BASE X.5 Enterprise (Version 10.5)
Build.........: 10.5.4.20421 or higher
Sections......: Forms
Keywords......: Scroll, Automatic, Interval, Memo, Rich Edit

Did you know that you can configure memo and rich edit controls to automatically scroll the text contents?

Two new form properties, AutoScrollInterval and AutoScrollContent, were added to allow automatic scrolling in all memos and rich edit controls.

The "Auto-Scroll Interval" property can only be defined within the Form Designer. The interval value specifies the length of time, in milliseconds, for the scrolling text to advance.

The AutoScrollContent property specifies to "begin scrolling" for the content of the form control, which can only be assigned (TRUE/FALSE) at runtime with the PROPERTY command.

PROPERTY OrderNotes AUTOSCROLLCONTENT 'TRUE'

The text within the object will automatically scroll, and when reaching the end of the text, resets to the top and continues scrolling.

The DB Memo, Variable Memo, Advanced DB Rich Edit, Advanced Variable Rich Edit, DB Rich Edit, Variable Rich Edit, DB Unicode Memo, and Variable Unicode Memo controls allow automatic scrolling.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
