vertical scroll bar for CTextView

[Nokia_Archive]

Hello.
I want to add a vertical scroll bar to the CTextView(& underlying CRichText) object. It wasn't obvious to me if CTextView exposed methods to do this. I was going to create a CEikScrollBar object and have my class definition inhert from CEikScrollBarObserver; however, neither CTextView or CRichText inherits from CCoeControl.

Can someone advise me as to how this is typically done or otherwise point me to an example?

Thank you.

Are you able to use the CEikRichTextEditor class instead of CTextView and CRichText - then the scrollbars will be handle for you by that class. You would need to enable the scrollbars by calling:

richTextEd->CreateScrollBarFrameL()->SetScrollBarVisibilityL(CEikScrollBarFrame::EOff,CEikScrollBarFrame::EAuto);
