public:
property System::Windows::Forms::ScrollOrientation ScrollOrientation { System::Windows::Forms::ScrollOrientation get(); };
public System.Windows.Forms.ScrollOrientation ScrollOrientation { get; }
member this.ScrollOrientation : System.Windows.Forms.ScrollOrientation
Public ReadOnly Property ScrollOrientation As ScrollOrientation
Property Value
One of the ScrollOrientation values.
Examples
The following code example demonstrates the use of this member. In the example, an event handler reports on the occurrence of the ScrollableControl.Scroll event. This report helps you to learn when the event occurs and can assist you in debugging. To report on multiple events or on events that occur frequently, consider replacing MessageBox.Show with Console.WriteLine or appending the message to a multiline TextBox.
To run the example code, paste it into a project that contains an instance of a type that inherits from ScrollableControl, such as a Panel or ContainerControl. Then name the instance ScrollableControl1
and ensure that the event handler is associated with the ScrollableControl.Scroll event.
private void ScrollableControl1_Scroll(Object sender, ScrollEventArgs e) {
System.Text.StringBuilder messageBoxCS = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "ScrollOrientation", e.ScrollOrientation );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Type", e.Type );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "NewValue", e.NewValue );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
messageBoxCS.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "OldValue", e.OldValue );
messageBoxCS.AppendLine();
MessageBox.Show(messageBoxCS.ToString(), "Scroll Event" );
}
Private Sub ScrollableControl1_Scroll(sender as Object, e as ScrollEventArgs) _
Handles ScrollableControl1.Scroll
Dim messageBoxVB as New System.Text.StringBuilder()
messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "ScrollOrientation", e.ScrollOrientation)
messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "Type", e.Type)
messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "NewValue", e.NewValue)
messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
messageBoxVB.AppendFormat("{0} = {1}", "OldValue", e.OldValue)
messageBoxVB.AppendLine()
MessageBox.Show(messageBoxVB.ToString(),"Scroll Event")
End Sub
Remarks
You would typically use the ScrollOrientation property to determine the scroll bar orientation that raised the Scroll
event, such as with the ScrollableControl.Scroll event.
