long wrapped text fools right scrollbar #192

Open agroszer opened 9 years ago

to repro:

Generate 5000 paragraphs of text with http://www.lipsum.com/feed/html
Paste it to a textfile, make sure long lines wrap
Start to scroll down (with pg-down), the scrollbar won't move after a while
Go to top, (incremental) search for "Generated" which is going to be the last line -- scrollbar will be stuck at the top

Reproduced. Workaround is to disable scrollbar skinning.

Another around the same: very long line (4000+) non-wrapped, makes the horizontal scrollbar not respect the full line length. IOW can't scroll with grabbing the scrollbar with the mouse to the actual line end. Scrolling with the arrow keys works, scrollbar "shrinks" when going right.

This is a limitation of Scintilla, or that's what the old guard told me when I used to ask about this. @mitchell-as would be the authority on that though. The work around is to use "End" to jump to the end of the line and force the scroll bar.

@cgchoffman is correct. Scintilla makes some performance compromises when it comes to the horizontal scroll bar.

If it's for performance... I don't mind, KO is sometimes sluggish enough
