ScrollBar Class
Implements the basic functionality of a scroll bar control.
Assembly: System.Windows.Forms (in System.Windows.Forms.dll)
You typically do not inherit directly from the ScrollBar class. To create your own scroll bar class, inherit from the VScrollBar or HScrollBar class.

The scroll box is sometimes referred to as the scroll thumb. |
To adjust the value range of the scroll bar control, set the Minimum and Maximum properties. To adjust the distance the scroll box moves, set the SmallChange and LargeChange properties. To adjust the starting point of the scroll box, set the Value property when the control is initially displayed.
User interface guidelines suggest that the SmallChange and LargeChange properties are set relative to the size of the view that the user sees, not to the total size including the unseen part. For example, if you have a picture box with scroll bars displaying a large image, the SmallChange and LargeChange properties should be set relative to the size of the picture box, not to the size of the image.
The following example creates and initializes a VScrollBar and adds it to a Form.
