SetScrollPos
The SetScrollPos function sets the position of the scroll box (thumb) in the specified scroll
bar and, if requested, redraws the scroll bar to reflect the new position of
the scroll box. The SetScrollPos function is provided for compatibility with Windows 3.x. Win32-based applications should use the SetScrollInfo function.
int SetScrollPos(
HWND hWnd,
| // handle of window with scroll bar
| int nBar,
| // scroll bar flag
| int nPos,
| // new position of scroll box
| BOOL bRedraw
| // redraw flag
| );
|
|
Parameters
hWnd
Identifies a scroll bar control or a window with a standard scroll bar,
depending on the value of the nBar parameter.
nBar
Specifies the scroll bar to be set. This parameter can be one of the following
values:
Value
| Meaning
| SB_CTL
| Sets the position of the scroll box in a scroll bar control. The hWnd parameter must be the handle of the scroll bar control.
| SB_HORZ
| Sets the position of the scroll box in a window's standard horizontal scroll
bar.
| SB_VERT
| Sets the position of the scroll box in a window's standard vertical scroll bar.
|
nPos
Specifies the new position of the scroll box. The position must be within the
scrolling range. For more information about the scrolling range, see the SetScrollRange function.
bRedraw
Specifies whether the scroll bar is redrawn to reflect the new scroll box
position. If this parameter is TRUE, the scroll bar is redrawn. If it is FALSE, the
scroll bar is not redrawn.
Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is the previous position of the
scroll box.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error
information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
If the scroll bar is redrawn by a subsequent call to another function, setting
the bRedraw parameter to FALSE is useful.
Because the messages that indicate scroll bar position, WM_HSCROLL and
WM_VSCROLL, are limited to 16 bits of position data, applications that rely solely on
those messages for position data have a practical maximum value of 65,535 for
the SetScrollPos function's nPos parameter.
However, because the SetScrollPos, SetScrollRange, GetScrollPos, and GetScrollRange functions support 32-bit scroll bar position data, there is a way to
circumvent the 16-bit barrier of the WM_HSCROLL and WM_VSCROLL messages. See GetScrollPos for a description of the technique and its limits.

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 » |
