Description Darin Wright CLA 2005-04-15 16:42:44 EDT
Using the latest org.eclipse.ui.console from HEAD, when output is appended to 
the console, even while the user holds the scrollbar at the top of the slider, 
the end of document is revealed.

As output is appended to the console, we call setTopIndex(..) on the styled 
text with the last line number if the doc. However, I would expect this to 
have no effect while the user is scrolling/holding the scrollbar in a certain 
position.

Re-assigning to SWT for comment. It feels like an issue with the styled text 
widget.
Comment 2 Steve Northover CLA 2005-04-18 12:42:53 EDT
Low priority.  The native control most likely behaves the same way?
Comment 3 Felipe Heidrich CLA 2007-09-13 17:26:34 EDT
Steve, to fix this StyledText would need to know if the scrollbar's thumb is being held down. 
Is possible to add API to scrollbar to query the state of the thumb ?

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
