ScrollBar.LargeChange Property

Definition

Gets or sets a value to be added to or subtracted from the Value property when the scroll box is moved a large distance.

public:
 property int LargeChange { int get(); void set(int value); };
public int LargeChange { get; set; }
member this.LargeChange : int with get, set
Public Property LargeChange As Integer

Property Value

A numeric value. The default value is 10.

Exceptions

The assigned value is less than 0.

Examples

The following example assumes that you have created a Form, added a PictureBox to the Form, and added a horizontal HScrollBar and a vertical VScrollBar to the PictureBox. This code example is part of a larger example provided for the ScrollBar class overview.

In this example, the LargeChange property is set relative to the size of the PictureBox.

You must add references to the System.Drawing and System.Windows.Forms namespaces to run this example.

Note

For instructions about how to run this example in Visual Studio, see How to: Compile and Run a Complete Windows Forms Code Example Using Visual Studio.

public void SetScrollBarValues()
{
    //Set the following scrollbar properties:

    //Minimum: Set to 0

    //SmallChange and LargeChange: Per UI guidelines, these must be set
    //    relative to the size of the view that the user sees, not to
    //    the total size including the unseen part.  In this example,
    //    these must be set relative to the picture box, not to the image.

    //Maximum: Calculate in steps:
    //Step 1: The maximum to scroll is the size of the unseen part.
    //Step 2: Add the size of visible scrollbars if necessary.
    //Step 3: Add an adjustment factor of ScrollBar.LargeChange.

    //Configure the horizontal scrollbar

 End Sub

Remarks

When the user clicks in the scroll bar track on either side of the scroll box, the Value property changes according to the value set in the LargeChange property.

Note

You can handle key press events so that when the user presses the PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN key the scroll box moves.

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.
