Thread: window scrolling with pgAdmin III
pgAdmin III July 16th Build
Probably something to do with wxWindows but thought I'd mention it anyway.
Minor annoyance with horizontal scrolling in SQL window or reverse engineer window.
If I have some very long line the horizontal scroll bar doesn't reflect the true width of the window. I have to press the incremental left or right button to scroll to areas that cannot be seen.
To get around this problem I put the cursor on the line that cannot be displayed fully and then press the "End" button. The view is taken to the end of line and now the scroll bar adjusts to the true width and from that point onwards I can scroll using the scroll bar.
Regards
Donald Fraser.

Do you take a binary build? Which OS? How long is that line you have problems with? Regards, Andreas

The line is longer than what can fit on a 1024 width screen using the default font. Example: (but this will probably wrap due to ASCII mail support) INSERT INTO tbl_cmpyaudit (id_cmpy, id_auditby, dt_audit, id_cmpytyp, id_cmpycat, id_country, s_umbname, s_name, s_address, s_city, s_pcode, s_phone, s_fax, s_email, s_web, d_deceased, s_subsact, id_editedby, dt_edited) VALUES(OLD.id, get_userId(), dtaudit, OLD.id_cmpytyp, OLD.id_cmpycat, OLD.id_country, OLD.s_umbname, OLD.s_name, OLD.s_address, OLD.s_city, OLD.s_pcode, OLD.s_phone, OLD.s_fax, OLD.s_email, OLD.s_web, OLD.d_deceased, OLD.s_subsact, OLD.id_editedby, OLD.dt_edited); Regards Donald Fraser.

Please don't expect this to be fixed immediately, scrollbar handling is tricky. Regards, Andreas
