ScrollBars Enumeration
Specifies which scroll bars will be visible on a control.
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. Friend WithEvents vertical As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Friend WithEvents horizontal As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Friend WithEvents both As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Friend WithEvents none As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Private Sub SetFourDifferentScrollBars() Me.vertical = New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Me.horizontal = New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Me.both = New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox Me.none = New System.Windows.Forms.TextBox ' Create a string for the Text property. Dim startString As String = _ "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.
