GetScrollInfo
The GetScrollInfo function retrieves the parameters of a scroll bar, including the minimum and
maximum scrolling positions, the page size, and the position of the scroll box
(thumb).
BOOL GetScrollInfo(
HWND hwnd,
| // handle of window with scroll bar
| int fnBar,
| // scroll bar flag
| LPSCROLLINFO lpsi
| // pointer to structure for scroll parameters
| );
|
|
Parameters
hwnd
Identifies a scroll bar control or a window with a standard scroll bar,
depending on the value of the fnBar parameter.
fnBar
Specifies the type of scroll bar for which to retrieve parameters. This
parameter can be one of the following values:
Value
| Meaning
| SB_CTL
| Retrieves the parameters for a scroll bar control. The hwnd parameter must be the handle of the scroll bar control.
| SB_HORZ
| Retrieves the parameters for the given window's standard horizontal scroll
bar.
| SB_VERT
| Retrieves the parameters for the given window's standard vertical scroll bar.
|
lpsi
Points to a SCROLLINFO structure whose fMask member, upon entry to the function, specifies the scroll bar parameters to
retrieve. Before returning, the function copies the specified parameters to the
appropriate members of the structure.
The fMask member can be a combination of the following values:
Value
| Meaning
| SIF_PAGE
| Copies the scroll page to the nPage member of the SCROLLINFO structure pointed to by lpsi.
| SIF_POS
| Copies the scroll position to the nPos member of the SCROLLINFO structure pointed to by lpsi.
| SIF_RANGE
| Copies the scroll range to the nMin and nMax members of the SCROLLINFO structure pointed to by lpsi.
|
Return Values
If the function retrieved any values, the return value is nonzero.
If the function does not retrieve any values, the return value is zero.
Remarks
The GetScrollInfo function enables applications to use 32-bit scroll positions. Although the
messages that indicate scroll-bar position, WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL, provide only 16 bits of position data, the functions SetScrollInfo and GetScrollInfo provide 32 bits of scroll-bar position data. Thus, an application can call GetScrollInfo while processing either the WM_HSCROLL or WM_VSCROLL messages to obtain
32-bit scroll-bar position data.
The limitation on this technique applies to real-time scrolling of a window's
contents. An application implements real-time scrolling by processing the
WM_HSCROLL or WM_VSCROLL messages that carry the SB_THUMBTRACK notification value,
thereby tracking the position of the scroll box (thumb) as the user moves it.
Unfortunately, there is no function to retrieve the 32-bit position scroll-box
position as the user moves the scroll box. Because GetScrollInfo provides only the static position, an application can obtain only 32-bit
position data before or after a scroll operation.

Nostalgia .Net |

.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
