I believe it is this:
(The formattedheight of field "myField1") - (the height of field
"myfield1")
However, you may also need to adjust for a horizontal scrollbar and/or
the thickness of the border of the field.

Subject: calculating max vscroll
Does anyone have a function that will calculate the maximum amount a
field can scroll if its height is too small to display it's entire
contents at once? (did that make sense; it's been a long day and I
have a headache :-))
Problem is I have a couple fields that I'm scrolling together, and
for some reason one is scrolling slightly more than the other, which
makes things slightly misaligned. The main field contains regular
text (this is the one that scrolls slightly more for some reason),
and the other field contains bullets that should line up with the
text in the main field (much like the breakpoint list toggle column
in the Rev script editor). I thought if I could calculate the
maximum vscroll, I should be able to limit them so they stay together
exactly. But unfortunately I'm having a hard time figuring out how
to do that. Both fields are set to use the same font and size and
have the same textHeight value.
Thanks for the help,
Chris
