i'm making a visual protocol analyzer. manually creating output records and repainting specific regions is working fairly well: https://techfak.de/~jmoringe/protocol-analyer.ogv . what i couldn't figure out: can i have the scroll-pane automatically scroll down?

scymtym: you may queue an event at regular intervals which trigger your handle-event function (and which may scroll the pane)

I think McCLIM has also a timer interface (which does it for you at regular intervals), but I saw in comments that it bitrotten (I don't know if it works)

jackdaniel: thanks, i'm already using an event mechanism to update add output records and change the space requirements, so i'm not sure that's the problem

i guess i could try to adjust the scroll pane as a final step of the event-driven update if there is a way to do that programmatically

"Note that each implementation may not have "hot spots" corresponding to each of these callbacks. "

jackdaniel
and I think this is a case - that we don't detect any of these hot spots (at least in the Core/ module)

jackdaniel
well, maybe we do detect others, I mean I don't find explicit calls to scroll-to-bottom-callback in core module
