Results Table Viewing

[Adam Cliffe]

Kind of a trivial macro writing problem....

If there are say 100 results in the results table, running
updateResults(); refreshes the results table but also scrolls the
window down to the last entry.
does anyone know an easy way to set the part of the results table
shown in the window? (i.e. so the first result is visible).

thanks

Adam

Hi Adam,

assuming you are programming a plugin, not a macro:

The only idea that comes into my mind is not very elegant, but it  
should do what you want (I have not tried it, however). You could  
create a mouse wheel event that scrolls up a very large distance  
(999999 lines, or whatever you consider enough):

TextPanel textPanel = IJ.getTextPanel();
textPanel.mouseWheelMoved(new MouseWheelEvent(textPanel, 0, 0, 0, 0,  
0, 0, false, MouseWheelEvent.WHEEL_UNIT_SCROLL, -999999, -999999);

Hi Adam & Michael,

Here's a (not particularly future-proof) solution with more code than
Michael's, but should work efficiently regardless of how much text is
present:

TextPanel textPanel = IJ.getTextPanel();
Component[] c = textPanel.getComponents();
for (int i=0; i<c.length; i++) {
  if (c[i] instanceof Scrollbar) {
    Scrollbar sb = (Scrollbar) c[i];
    if (sb.getOrientation() == Scrollbar.VERTICAL) {
      sb.setValue(0);
      break;
    }
  }
}
