About VerticalScrollBar property

[Alberto Mesa]

I am opening documents (Q3 sp1 2010) and I am looking for expressions for changing theirs background. This is the code:

 

 

 

deltaY = rtb.VerticalScrollBar.Value;        // page 1

.

.

 

 

this.rtb.Document.CaretPosition.MoveToPosition(end);    // page 5

 

.
.
this.rtb.ChangeTextHighlightColor(Color));
.
.

 

rtb.VerticalScrollBar.Value = deltaY;    // page 1 but does not show content of page 1

 

 

The scrollbar takes the saved value but the page does not change to the corresponding position as the verticalScrollbar.Value. How can I synchronize them?

Hi Alberto Mesa,

 Unfortunately, for now, we do not support scroll bar manipulation. We are planning to introduce this kind of API in one of our forthcoming minor releases. We hope we can include it in the service pack which is due around April 15.

I can think of only one solution to this problem in your case, and that's to store the position of the Caret. To go to the end of the document, do some stuff, and then return the caret to it's original position.
Here is the code:

DocumentPosition currentDocumentPosition = new DocumentPosition(rtb.Document.CaretPosition);

this.rtb.Document.CaretPosition.MoveToLastPositionInDocument();

.
.
this.rtb.ChangeTextHighLightColor(Color);
.
.

this.rtb.Document.CaretPosition.MoveToPosition(currentDocumentPosition);

If you have any other requests or questions, please contact us again.

Thanks for reply. This solution helps but not completely because if you move the document by scrolling this code does not work, it just works respecting about the last caret position and not the scroll position. Any other idea?

Hello Alberto Mesa,

We will add an item in our todo-list regarding this functionality for the next minor release (SP1) which should be delivered in a few weeks. I am afraid for now the only option is the one we already discussed.

Kind regards,
