TScrollBar - a control that allows the user to scroll the current page or document window by moving a slider
It appears as a long rectangular track or bar within which a smaller contrasting block or slider can move up and down (or from side to side in a horizontal ScrollBar)
It has small triangular indicators or pointers at each end. Typically, for a vertical ScrollBar the top indicator points up, and at the bottom there is a pair of pointers, one up and one down. Clicking with the mouse on one of the pointers moves the slider a small distance (SmallChange) in the specified direction, and the programmer's responsibility is to ensure that the page, image or document in which the ScrollBar is found will scroll by a corresponding small amount
Clicking with the mouse in the blank area of the scrollbar above or below the slider makes the slider move by a larger increment (LargeChange) and scrolls the contents of the window by a larger amount - several lines, a paragraph, half a page or anything up to a page (PageSize)
The slider can also be moved by clicking on it with the mouse, and holding down the button while moving the mouse. The slider follows the mouse until the button is released. If the mouse has a scrollwheel, the slider can be similarly moved by rotating the wheel. In each case, the contents of the window scroll by a corresponding amount
Scrolling of the window and movement of the slider can also be achieved by using the directional arrows or the Page Up/Page Down keys on the keyboard
The location of the slider along the track is held in the Position property, which reports where the mouse has placed it, or can alternatively be set to an arbitrary location by the program. If the mouse or arrow keys are used to move the cursor somewhere on the main window so as to make the display scroll (eg by moving beyond the top or bottom line in a text display) the scroll bar slider moves to indicate the corresponding location along the scroll bar
