The IlvScrollView Class

A special type of view in the Class-Oriented View Hierarchy is managed by an instance of the IlvScrollView class. To operate properly, this class needs a widget toolkit linked with your application.

Note IlvScrollView has an implementation on Microsoft Windows and on top of Motif only (the ports that have native controls). If you have the Views Gadgets package, the class IlvScrolledView provides similar services.

An IlvScrollView must contain a single child view, which is usually bigger than its parent. The IlvScrollView takes care of all automatic scrolling operations. It does so by means of scroll bars, located on the right and bottom of the scrolling view. You can manipulate the scroll bars to display new areas of the subview.

You can handle a non-Views window object within an IlvScrollView object. This can be any of your system windows, such as one created by another application.
