I'm surprised nobody had anything to say about this. Anybody at Revolution want to give it a go?
I've had a try (though I'm not at Revolution).
I see the same effect - but I don't think it's wrong (though I agree it's counter-intuitive).
I *think* this is because it's a scrollbar - and if you picture these Little Arrows moving your position within a "virtual document" (i.e. like the up-arrow and down-arrow at the top and bottom of a regular scrollbar), then this would be the correct direction for the value-change of the "thumbposition".
I've also discovered some other interesting math "behaviour" in regards to LittleArrows. If I do this in a script (to fix the above bug), I get incorrect results:
put -(the thumbPosition of me)
If the thumbPosition happens to be at -6, I get 6.001984 instead of 6. This is quite surprising, but I'm glad I haven't spent the $300 yet...
Not sure about this - I suspect that once you put the value into an expression, it will be evaluated and printed to full decimal places, wheres when used as a value on its own, suitable rounding is applied automatically. But that's only a guess without seeing more context (and, probably, knowing more than I do about RunRev).
