Hi.
The part I've got working...
Two clickable scrolling fields (fld1, fld2), same height and width. Click a
fld1 line and fld2 SCROLLs and HILITEDLINEs to visually reveal a matching
line. (fld1 is French text, fld2 is an English gloss.)
The part I would welcome your help with...
If, say, the hilited line on fld1 is kinda halfway down, how do I get the
hilited line on fld2 to also be kinda halfway down?
Here's my scrolling-magic script:
set the scroll of fld2 to (tMatchingLineNr - 1) * \
the textHeight of fld2 - the textHeight of fld2
set the hilitedline of fld2 to tMatchingLineNr
Of course, this ends up with the hilited line of fld2 being at the top.
How do I get it to scroll just that little bit more so that it aligns with
the hilited line as seen in fld1?
Thank you.
