ScrollBars Enumeration
Specifies which scroll bars will be visible on a control.
Namespace: System.Windows.Forms
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
This enumeration is used by TextBox.ScrollBars.
Not all controls support scroll bars. Use this enumeration to specify which scroll bars will be visible on a control, either under some or all circumstances.
The following code example demonstrates how to use the ScrollBars enumeration.To run the example, paste the following code in a form. Call the SetFourDifferentScrollBars method in the form's constructor or Load event-handling method.
// Declare four textboxes. internal System.Windows.Forms.TextBox vertical; internal System.Windows.Forms.TextBox horizontal; internal System.Windows.Forms.TextBox both; internal System.Windows.Forms.TextBox none; private void SetFourDifferentScrollBars() { this.vertical = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox(); this.horizontal = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox(); this.both = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox(); this.none = new System.Windows.Forms.TextBox(); // Create a string for the Text property. string startString = "The scroll bar style for my textbox is: "; // Set the location of the four textboxes. horizontal.Location = new Point(10, 10); vertical.Location = new Point(10, 70); none.Location = new Point(10, 170); both.Location = new Point(10, 110); // For horizonal scroll bars, the Multiline property must // be true and the WordWrap property must be false. // Increase the size of the Height property to ensure the // scroll bar is visible. horizontal.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Horizontal; horizontal.Multiline = true; horizontal.WordWrap = false; horizontal.Height = 40; horizontal.Text = startString + ScrollBars.Horizontal.ToString(); // For the vertical scroll bar, Multiline must be true. vertical.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Vertical; vertical.Multiline = true; vertical.Text = startString + ScrollBars.Vertical.ToString(); // For both scroll bars, the Multiline property // must be true, and the WordWrap property must be false. // Increase the size of the Height property to ensure the // scroll bar is visible. both.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.Both; both.Multiline = true; both.WordWrap = false; both.Height = 40; both.AcceptsReturn = true; both.Text = startString + ScrollBars.Both.ToString(); // The none scroll bar does not require specific // property settings. none.ScrollBars = ScrollBars.None; none.Text = startString + ScrollBars.None.ToString(); // Add the textboxes to the form. this.Controls.Add(this.vertical); this.Controls.Add(this.horizontal); this.Controls.Add(this.both); this.Controls.Add(this.none); }
