Scro ll B ar
The Horizontal and Vertic al Scroll B ars appear when the
content of the Window is larger that the size of the Window
screen. In these cases the Window is a viewer that moves over
teh content by using the Sc roll Bars . The Scroll B ars are
moved by dragging the actual bar along the track or by
clicking on the directional arrows at each end of the bar. Since
this is supposedly moving the Window over the contents, the
contents will appear to move in the opposite direction of the
Scro ll B ar.

sectio n o f this chapter and is included here for viewing. The I
Be am shape is displayed whenever text may be entered, and
