Movin ScrollBars from Code

[cvandeso@xxxxxxxx (cvandeso@xxxxxxxx)]

Hi Rama,

You have the next method on JComponent level :

----
public void scrollRectToVisible(Rectangle aRect)

     Forwards the scrollRectToVisible() message to the JComponent's parent.
 Components that can service the request, such
     as a JViewport, override this method and perform the scrolling.
     See Also:
          JViewport
----

If you use this on the viewport, the scrollbar automatically moves along
with it. (have a look at the source of JList, JTree plafs for a good prog.
template)

Regards,
Carlo

Hi folks,
    Is it possible to move a vertical scrollbar up
or down by writing code to do it?
    Essentially, I have a JScrollPane and want to
move the scrollbar from within the code
    whenever  particular event is generated.
Thanks and regards,
Rama
