Scrollbar live updating
I've been trying, but can't seem to find a way to live update a scrollbar. What I'd like to do it have a scroll value whose min and max values actually equate to font sizes in a modeless preferences stack. As the user slides it around, they see the font change size live. But I can't see to get this to work. Has anyone else done this and can lend some tips? Thanks!

Re: RevBrowser bug
I think at some point the RevBrowser needs to be completely reworked so that the browser is attached not to a window but to an object like a field or a button.

Re: Distinguishing between ASCII and UTF8

Socket read problems
I'm trying to read data from a MODBus/TCP controller and having some issues with the timing of the read command. I request a block of registers from the slave and it returns the requested bytes and header just fine and very quickly. In order to read everything right, I have to first read the first 6 bytes of the header to know how many bytes are to follow. Once I know that, I do a read from socket tSock for bytes characters. Note that ALL of the characters have been received in a single packet so once I read the 6 bytes, the rest of the data is already in the socket buffer. The problem I have is when I do the second read, the read command blocks for the socketTimeoutInterval before continuing. It doesn't matter what I set it to, it will wait that long before continuing. I tried catching the socketTimeout message but that message is never sent, even when I set the socketTimeoutInterval to 5 milliseconds! I am not using the read ... with message form of the command since I want the handler to wait until all the bytes have been received before I move on. Has anyone else seen this? Have I missed something in the documentation or could this be something in the Windows code that handles sockets?
