DOCUMENT:Q265746 23-MAR-2001 [vbwin] TITLE :PRB: eVB: Scrollbars Appear Incorrectly in Run Mode PRODUCT :Microsoft Visual Basic for Windows PROD/VER::3.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS:kbGrpDSVB kbDSupport kbVBM300 ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft eMbedded Visual Basic, version 3.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When you place a small horizontal or vertical scrollbar on a form, the scrollbar appears blank or without arrows, depending on the size of the control. STATUS ====== This behavior is by design. MORE INFORMATION ================ This behavior occurs because of the way that Windows CE handles the painting of the control. Steps to Reproduce Behavior --------------------------- 1. Create a new HPC Pro or Pocket PC project in eMbedded Visual Basic. Form1 is created by default. 2. Add a vertical scrollbar to Form1. 3. Add the following code to Form1: Private Sub Form_Load() VScroll1.Height = 450 End Sub 4. Press the F5 key to run the project in emulation. Notice that no arrows appear in the scrollbar. 5. Change the code provided in Step 3 to read: Private Sub Form_Load() VScroll1.Height = 250 End Sub 6. Press the F5 key to run the project. Notice that in the HPC Pro project you get a white rectangle, while in the Pocket PC project no scrollbar appears on the form.
