3692.0. "Simple Text Widget , size and insertpoint trouble" by BACHUS::RIJMENANTS (Dirk Rijmenants) Tue Nov 20 1990 03:22



         About the simple text widget...

              For some reason, my stext widget is not properly
         sized. As I specify its width and height, when it gets 
         managed the width is smaller that what is specified. 
         Again this does not happen always (but often enough to
         be worth looking at...). 

              Although I specify the Auto_Show_Insert_Position
         the widget does not scroll to make the insertpoint
         visible.

         Anyone with the same experience ? Maybe I'm doing
         something wrong ? (FYI: VMS 5.3 and Pascal)


         Thanks.

This is a known bug.  Use top_position to manually force the scrolling 
you want.
