I'm finding that the vertical scrollbar on OSX is not useable if the text field is small. (I'm using swt-3.6.1-cocoa-macosx-x86_64.zip). Here's an example:

public class TestVerticalScroll {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Display display = new Display();
		Shell shell = new Shell(display);
		Text text = new Text(shell, SWT.MULTI | SWT.WRAP | SWT.V_SCROLL);
		text.setText("ABC\r\r\r\r\r\rXYZ");
		text.setSize(164, 50);
		shell.setSize(300, 300);
		shell.open();
		while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
			if (!display.readAndDispatch())
				display.sleep();
		}
		display.dispose();
	}
}


Changing the height from 50 to 80 will make the scrollbar useful again!

Does anyone else have this problem?

Thanks

Hi,

I think the scrollbar's buttons & thumb don't appear because they cannot fit-in in the given size. On my system, usable arrow buttons without thumb appear when the text box's height is 56 and thumb appears when height is 60.
While the scrollbar is not usable, you can use mouse scroll to scroll the text.
