The documentation for scroll bars refers to how
scrollbars previously worked (but will no longer
work) which may explain why when I run an
application written for 1.02 the scrollbars don't
behave correctly. The way the maximum is described
is incorrect and following the description gives
screwy results. The maximum is described as being
the left edge of the visible ( for horizontal)
which means you could have a maximum of zero (if
your visible area was your entire area). That is
not possible with the current implementation. You
cannot set maximum to zero and you can't set visible
to greater than maximum. So if you look at your
example you will see that what maximum should be
set to is 255 + 64 not 255. This behaviour is
consistent for Solaris 2.5 and Windows NT 4.0.
