[form.]scrollbar.Attached
Usage Notes
■ Setting Left, Height, Width, or Top at run time when Attached = True
(-1) will generate a read-only error.
■ Only one horizontal and one vertical scroll bar at a time may be
attached.
■ When a scroll bar is attached to a border, the border itself becomes a
scroll bar.
■ The SCROLLBAR_BACKCOLOR and SCROLLBAR_FORECOLOR settings of the
ControlPanel property cannot be used to change the color of scroll bars
that are attached to an object. Instead, attached scroll bars derive
their color from:
• The control's BackColor or ForeColor properties.
See: ◄BackColor Property► ◄ForeColor Property►
• The form's ACTIVE_BORDER_BACKCOLOR and ACTIVE_BORDER_FORECOLOR
ControlPanel property settings. See: ◄ControlPanel Property►
■ When a scroll bar is attached, changes to the scroll bar's Left, Top,
Width, and Height properties are not allowed. The scroll bar is
automatically sized when the form is sized. Unattached scroll bars do
not automatically change size or position when the form is resized.
