PRWIN9110004: SetScrollPos Always 0 for Scroll Bar Controls

ID Number: Q77072

3.00

WINDOWS

Summary:

PROBLEM ID: WIN9110004

SYMPTOMS

SetScrollPos() returns 0 (zero) for scroll bar controls, regardless

of the previous position of the scroll bar's thumb.

RESOLUTION

GetScrollPos() correctly returns the thumb position for both scroll

bar controls and window scroll bars. To retrieve the previous

scroll bar position, call GetScrollPos() before SetScrollPos().

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Windows version

3.00 scroll bar controls. We are researching this problem and will

post new information here as it becomes available.
