How To Set up the Scrolling Table Control
To set up a Scrolling Table control, you must first add it to the Control Panel, then link the desired values
into the table cells.
To add the table to a panel
1. Open the Control palette.
2. Click and drag the Scrolling Table icon to the control panel and drop it on the canvas. A default table
display is added. You can click and drag the borders to resize it, however, if Auto Resize is set to True,
the table will resize automatically when a control is added to it.
3. Set the desired display options for the table itself, such as the Background Color, Grid Line Color, and
Border Type. These settings affect only the table, not the display for each value within the table.
Transparent If True, the Control Panel’s color shows behind the table
If False, the Background Color is displayed
Visible If True, the control is visible
Scroll On Data
Change
If True, whenever the Scroll method is called, the table will update if one
or more of the cell values has changed. This prevents the table from
scrolling if no values have changed.
If False, each time the Scroll method is called the table will always update
whether any cell values have changed. In this situation, there is a chance
of cell values being the same for consecutive updates.

and the table values continue to update
