Picturebox - scrollbars

Author	Message
Rob #1 / 3	Picturebox - scrollbars I am using a picturebox on a form to display text. Is there a way to allow and display more text than will fit in the picturebox? (I am using a picturebox because I want the currentx,currenty properties. I wrote a nice class for printing and it will work with a picturebox (as a sort of print preview) as well.)

Paul Page #2 / 3	Picturebox - scrollbars Create a picture box - this will be your viewport and will be a container for your current (output) picbox. Give it the same background color as your output picbox. Change the BorderStyle of your output picbox to 'none' and place it in the viewport picbox. Place your scrollbars on the form. In the Scrollbar Change event, modify the Top and Left properties of the output picbox, in effect 'scrolling' it around inside the viewport. Note that the output picbox must be wide/tall enough to handle all the output. Only the visible area will change.
