Mike Bonner's solution -- using selectedLoc to set vScroll -- matches exactly the scrolling effect I'm after. Thank you, everyone.

Re: align field scrolls
An alternate solution.. If you put item 2 of the selectedloc of the first field - item 2 of the selectedloc of the second field into tScroll -- you can then set the vscroll of field "your second field" to the vscroll of field "your second field" - tScroll On Mon, Mar 6, 2017 at 8:27 AM, Paul Dupuis via use-livecode < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > You need 3 controls: 2 fields with the vertical scrollbars turned off > and a vertical scroller > > > Set the min of the vertical scrollbar to 0 and the max to the "max(the > formattedHeight of field X,formattedHeight of field Y) > > In the scrollbar, add the script: > > on scrollbarDrag newPosition > set the vScroll of field X to newPosition > set the vScroll of field Y to newPosition > end scrollbarDrag > > > On 3/6/2017 9:39 AM, Rick Harrison via use-livecode wrote: > > Hi Nicolas, > > > > Does the number of lines increase or decrease between executions? > > > > Have you tried to add or subtract a constant to adjust for the > difference? > > > > Rick > > > >> On Mar 5, 2017, at 9:45 PM, Nicolas Cueto via use-livecode < > use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > >> > >>> Provided both fields have the same number of lines... > >> > >> I should've added that the fields do not contain the same number of > >> lines.

Re: align field scrolls
You need 3 controls: 2 fields with the vertical scrollbars turned off and a vertical scroller Set the min of the vertical scrollbar to 0 and the max to the "max(the formattedHeight of field X,formattedHeight of field Y) In the scrollbar, add the script: on scrollbarDrag newPosition set the vScroll of field X to newPosition set the vScroll of field Y to newPosition end scrollbarDrag On 3/6/2017 9:39 AM, Rick Harrison via use-livecode wrote: > Hi Nicolas, > > Does the number of lines increase or decrease between executions? > > Have you tried to add or subtract a constant to adjust for the difference? > > Rick > >> On Mar 5, 2017, at 9:45 PM, Nicolas Cueto via use-livecode >> wrote: >> >>> Provided both fields have the same number of lines... >> >> I should've added that the fields do not contain the same number of >> lines.

Re: align field scrolls
So if your two fields have different number of lines, you must scale the "slave" field to the "master. You cannot just align their scroll values. If the master has, say 100 lines, and the slave 75, you simply set the ratio of the scroll of the master to its total line count to the ratio of the slave's similar properties. You may need the "trunc" function to avoid unnecessary pain and suffering.

Hi Nicolas, Does the number of lines increase or decrease between executions? Have you tried to add or subtract a constant to adjust for the difference?

Re: align field scrolls
I have a stack that does a similar thing, but with numbers and I just use the following script in the main field; on scrollBarDrag pScroll set the vScroll of fld “lineNumbers" to pScroll end scrollBarDrag Provided both fields have the same number of lines and the text properties are identical they should stay aligned correctly. Or a simpler version would be; set the vScroll of fld 2 to the vScroll of fld 1 Paul > On Mar 5, 2017, at 6:00 PM, Nicolas Cueto via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi. > > The part I've got working... > > Two clickable scrolling fields (fld1, fld2), same height and width.
