Scrolling in the List
The list displayed in your application is often too large for all its data to be displayed on the screen. To view hidden columns or rows, you have to scroll in the list. Scroll bars are provided for this purpose. If all columns and rows are displayed, but they cannot be displayed on the screen simultaneously, you can use the scroll bars of the application in the usual way. You adjust the application window, and therefore the list, by moving it horizontally or vertically into the required position.
You can specify the
size of the area in which the list is displayed by specifying the height and
width of the list (see
Setting the Number of
Columns and Rows). The horizontal and vertical list scroll bars are
then displayed. If the number of columns and rows that you specify is less
than the actual number of rows or columns, the control elements for the scroll
bars are active; otherwise the control elements are inactive.
A list can contain fixed columns. This means that these columns are located to the right or left of the list, depending on the settings. If you scroll horizontally in the list, only those columns that are not fixed move in the specified direction. Fixed columns do not move.
